Changhong Bridge

The New Changhong Bridge is a red arch bridge spanning both sides of the Xiuguluan River estuary. It is an important bridge connecting the Jingpu hamlet and the Dagang hamlet. There is a boat dock below the bridge, and at the south end of the bridge is the Xibulan Visitor Center. Next to the new Changhong Bridge is the old Changhong Bridge. The old bridge was completed in May 1968. It is 120 meters long and was the first cantilever single-arch concrete bridge in Taiwan. Due to the long term traffic use of the bridge, it became a bridge for pedestrians when the new bridges was completed and opened to traffic in January 2013. The magnificent new bridge can be seen from the old bridge. The new Changhong Bridge is 185 meters long, has eight semi-circular viewing platforms on the bridge, where you can overlook the boats passing underneath, as well as the beautiful scenery of Xiuguluan River estuary and Ci’poran Island.
