Shezi Island Circumference and Erchong Floodway Bicycle Path Introduction

Shezi Island is located at the confluence of the Keelung River and the Tamsui River, characterized by a sandy shoal geology. The area is dotted with rice paddies and vegetable gardens, showcasing the beautiful scenery of an old rural village with its simple folk customs. The area has constructed a bicycle path along the top of the embankment, attracting many cycling enthusiasts. At the sandy tail of Shezi Island, one can see the tumultuous confluence of the Keelung River and the Tamsui River. Every evening, as the sun sets, the golden rays of the setting sun sparkle on the river's surface, offering a breathtaking view of the Datun and Guanyin Mountains stretching across the horizon. To the south, it connects to the left bank bicycle path of the Bailin Bridge, where there are many large sports fields, and it is common to see famous teams from both domestic and abroad practicing here. While cycling, one can enjoy the vibrant atmosphere of the spacious sports grounds, making for an enriching and lively experience. The Circular Bicycle Path of the Erchong Flood Diversion Canal is 24 kilometers long, crossing the embankment road into the park area, featuring various themed riverside green spaces where one can spend a lot of time exploring.
