Zhilan Park Seaside Observation Platform Introduction
The Zhilan Park Seaside Viewing Platform, renowned as the "Most Beautiful Runway on the North Coast," was completed in August 2021 and welcomes visitors with a brand new appearance. Travelers can walk along the water-blue wave corridor, seemingly stepping into the sea, where they can enjoy breathtaking sea views and sunset glow from a 360-degree perspective. The romantic installation art at the end of the platform makes it a popular spot for couples and tourists to take photos. Originally a famous tourist attraction in Sanzhi, the Seaside Viewing Platform was closed for years after being deemed a dangerous structure due to severe coastal erosion. The newly built viewing platform is constructed on top of the original platform base, featuring a 57-meter-long water-blue corridor that culminates in a massive, shining wedding ring. This installation art, created by local artists from Sanzhi and a professional team from the city government, symbolizes "destiny as meaning, unity as symbol, and ring as form." With the ocean as its main color, the installation reflects the grandeur of the sea and boasts a dynamic form that adds beautiful scenery to the North Coast. The rebuilt Seaside Viewing Platform connects to the Zhilan Park Trail, allowing visitors to walk approximately 5 minutes to the shallow-water bay seaside park, where they can enjoy water play and leisure time during the hot summer days. They can also relax at a café, listen to the sea, and enjoy afternoon tea while taking in the stunning morning and evening views of the North Coast. Alternatively, visitors can link up various romantic spots along the North Coast, embarking on a sweet journey with their partners, including "First Encounter at Bali Love Boat, Romantic Lovers' Bridge in Tamsui, Engagement at Sanzhi Seaside Platform, and Happiness Bell at Shimen."
