Changhong Bridge Introduction

The elegant arch-shaped Changhong Bridge spans across the mouth of the Xiuguluan River, creating a beautiful rainbow reflection at the intersection of mountains and sea, making it a famous photo landmark on the East Coast. This spot is also the endpoint for rafting, where tired yet satisfied rafts dock. Strolling along the riverside path, water birds gracefully forage along the riverbed, while bicycles come and go, and the surrounding plants change with the seasons. If you're tired, you may want to take a break at the nearby New Pacific No. 1 Store, enjoy a cup of afternoon tea, and spend a leisurely time. The island at the mouth of the river, known as Xibulan Island, also called Lion Ball Islet, is a lush green island that serves as a sacred site for the local Amis tribe. It is composed of volcanic block rocks and retains a considerable natural ecological appearance due to being isolated by streams. Birds, migratory fish, and shrimp gather here, making it a great spot for ecological observation.
