Nanzigou Bicycle Station Introduction
In order to provide a quality resting area for cyclists along the Dahan River, the New Taipei City Government has created a cultural bicycle rest stop at the "Nan Zi Gou Pumping Station" near the Xinyue Bridge. The station has improved its environment and facilities, increased the surrounding guidance signage, and added resting platforms and washrooms, giving visitors a feeling of returning home. Additionally, to enrich the content of the bicycle rest stop, the construction team interviewed the Fangqiao Cultural Association of New Taipei City to obtain cultural and historical information about the Banqiao Nan Zi River. This information is displayed in a lively manner in the resting area, allowing cyclists to learn more about the land they are riding on while they rest and to enhance their cultural literacy. The rest stop not only provides a safe and comfortable resting space for cyclists but also integrates functions such as flood control, leisure, and environmental education. Originally, the Nan Zi Gou Pumping Station is located on the right bank of the Dahan River along the Nan Zi Gou bicycle path. Part of the space has been transformed into a bicycle rest stop to provide a resting area for cyclists, who can access the station by crossing the flood protection bridge through signage. The rest stop offers services such as restrooms, air inflation, and water supply, and in the indoor resting area, visitors can learn about the local stories of Banqiao Nan Zi Gou while relaxing. However, the most eye-catching feature is the 26-meter tall and 18-meter wide mural themed around the world-famous book "The Little Prince," where the charming Little Prince, fox, and rose await everyone's arrival on planet B612!
