Bitan Suspension Bridge Introduction
The Bitan Suspension Bridge is located in the midstream of the Xindian River. Built in 1937, it is a double-tower, double-hinged single-span suspension bridge with a length of 186.6 meters, a width of 3.5 meters, and an elevation of 30 meters, capable of carrying about 1,000 people. It is a well-known tourist attraction in the Xindian District. The name "Bitan" comes from the clear blue color of the river. In the past, the main means of crossing the river was by ferry, but after the completion of the Bitan Suspension Bridge, it became an important link between Zhonghe and Xindian. Due to its beautiful design and unique characteristics, it has become the focal point of the Bitan Scenic Area and a landmark of the Xindian District over the decades.
