Nanzi Stream Bicycle Station Introduction
The New Taipei City Government has created a cultural bicycle rest station at the "Nanzi Pump Station" near the Xinyue Bridge, aiming to provide a high-quality resting place for cyclists along the Dahan River. The station's environment and facilities have been improved, surrounding guide signs have been added, and a resting platform and restroom have been installed, giving visitors a feeling of coming home. Furthermore, to enrich the content of the bicycle rest station, the construction team consulted the Fangqiao Cultural Association in New Taipei City to obtain cultural and historical information about the Banqiao Nanzikou area. Vivid illustrations showcasing this information have been displayed in the rest area of the bicycle station, allowing cyclists to learn more about the land they are traversing while taking a break and enriching their cultural knowledge. The bicycle rest station not only provides a safe and comfortable resting space for cyclists but also serves functions related to flood prevention, leisure, and environmental education. Originally located on the right bank of the Dahan River along the Nanzikou Bicycle Path, part of the pump station has been transformed into a bicycle rest station to provide a place for cyclists to rest. Visitors can follow the signs to enter the station via the flood control overpass at the end of the creek. The station offers services such as restrooms, air inflation, and water refills. In the indoor resting area, visitors can relax while learning about the local stories of Banqiao Nanzikou from the past. However, the most eye-catching feature is the 26-meter high and 18-meter wide mural themed on the world-famous book "The Little Prince," where the adorable Little Prince, fox, and rose await everyone’s arrival on planet B612!
