Bihua Trail Introduction
Located between Dahu Street Lane 131 and Neihu Road Section 3 Lane 60, Bihu Trail is a beautiful path hidden among residential areas, rich in ecology and historical industrial significance, planned as a mountain trail with educational and recreational functions. It connects the scenic Dago Creek riverside trail, the Yuanjue Temple Trail, and the Liyu Mountain Trail, making it convenient for visitors of all ages. At the entrance of the trail on Dahu Street Lane 131, there is a realistic portrayal of a mining site, featuring a vintage mine, railway tracks, and coal cars, making it feel like a real mine. In the early days, this area thrived with coal mining, being the site of the "Xinfuben Mine," contributing to the local industrial development. The trail mostly has a gentle terrain, with only a short stretch of steep uphill, and a small platform available for exercise and stretching. The path consists of wooden planks, gravel, granite blocks, and red bricks, providing a multi-textured walking experience. Along the way, there are one or two small vegetable gardens, and the trail winds between residential houses, with ferns, acacia trees, and large-leaved nanmu plants visible throughout. If you're lucky, you might even see a Formosan blue magpie flying through the woods, a mountain hawk-eagle soaring in the sky, or even a red-bellied tree squirrel darting by. The final stretch of the trail feels especially enjoyable, and visitors from outside will certainly envy the residents living here, as they can hear the rustling of the bamboo grove from their windows. If you're still in the mood for more, continuing on to Yuanjue Temple, Banshanyan, or Baishi Lake are all excellent choices, where you can immerse yourself in nature while also experiencing the solemnity and tranquility of the temples.
