Changhong Bridge Introduction
The Changhong Bridge, with its elegant arched structure, spans across the estuary of the Xiuquwan River, creating a beautiful rainbow reflection at the intersection of mountains and sea. It has become a famous landmark for photography along the East Coast, and serves as the endpoint for river rafting, where tired yet satisfied rafts come ashore. Walking along the path by the river, one can see water birds gracefully foraging along the riverbed, while bicycles pass by frequently. The plants on either side change with the seasons, providing a picturesque landscape. If you're feeling tired, why not take a break at the nearby New Pacific No. 1 store for a cup of afternoon tea and enjoy a leisurely time. The nearby island of Xibal Island, also known as Lion Ball Islet, is a lush green island that is considered a sacred place by the local Amis tribe. It is composed of volcanic clastic rocks and, due to the river's isolation, retains a remarkably natural ecological environment. Here, the birds foraging at the river mouth, migratory fish, and shrimp and crabs gather, making it an excellent spot for ecological observation.
