Nan Zigou Bicycle Station Introduction
To provide a quality resting spot for cyclists along the Dahan River, the New Taipei City Government has created a cultural bicycle station within the "Nanzyuko Pumping Station" near the Xinyue Bridge. They have improved the station's environment and facilities, increased surrounding signage, and added resting platforms and bathrooms to make visitors feel at home. Additionally, to enrich the cultural content of the bicycle station, the construction team interviewed the Fangqiao Cultural Association of New Taipei City to obtain cultural and historical data about the Banqiao Nanzyu River. They utilized lively illustrations to display in the rest area of the station, allowing cyclists to learn more about the land they ride on, enhancing their cultural literacy. The bicycle station not only provides a safe and comfortable resting area for cyclists but also serves functions related to flood control, leisure, and environmental education. Originally located on the right bank of the Dahan River along the Nanzyuko Bike Path, a portion of the Nanzyuko Pumping Station has been transformed into a bicycle station. Cyclists can enter the station by following the signage across the Duxikou Flood Control Bridge. The station offers services like bathrooms, tire inflation, and refilling of water, and visitors can rest indoors while learning about the local stories of Banqiao Nanzyuko. However, the most eye-catching feature is the 26-meter high and 18-meter wide mural themed around the world-renowned book "The Little Prince," with the adorable Little Prince, fox, and rose waiting for everyone on planet B612!
