Changhong Bridge spans the Xiuguluan River, connecting the settlements of Jingpu and Gangkou, and serves as the endpoint for rafting on the Xiuguluan River. The bridge consists of two parts: the old and the new. The new bridge features a vibrant orange-red color, and the bridge deck includes bike and pedestrian paths separated for fast and slow traffic. In line with the rafting activities, eight observation platforms have been installed. From the bridge, one can enjoy a distant view of Xibulan Island at the river's mouth.

Changhong Bridge Introduction

The elegant arch of the Changhong Bridge spans across the mouth of the Xiuguluan River, creating a beautiful rainbow reflection at the intersection of mountains and sea, and has become a famous photography landmark on the East Coast. This place also serves as the endpoint for rafting, where tired yet satisfied rafts dock here. Strolling along the riverside path, water birds gracefully forage along the riverbed, and bicycles come and go as the plants on both sides change with the seasons. If you're tired, you might want to take a break at the nearby New Pacific No. 1 store to enjoy a cup of afternoon tea and spend leisurely time. Off the mouth of the river lies Xibulan Island, also known as Lion Ball Islet, a lush green small island that is a sacred place for the local Amis people and is made up of volcanic block rock. Due to the river's barrier, it retains a relatively natural ecological appearance, making it a great spot for ecological observation with birds, migratory fish, and shrimp and crabs gathering here.
