#Taipei Attractions
Neihu District in Taipei is not only a concentration of science and technology parks and residential areas, but also has rich natural landscapes and leisure resorts. Baishihu Suspension Bridge is one of these hidden treasures. It is located near Baishi Lake in Neihu, and attracts many nature-loving tourists with its unique suspension bridge design and beautiful natural environment. Today, I came to this suspension bridge for a short trip to get close to nature.
1. Embark on a journey of exploration - Enter the Baishihu Suspension Bridge
The entrance to the Baishihu Suspension Bridge is not very conspicuous and requires walking along a small path. Although it is a little far from the center of Taipei, transportation is still very convenient through the connection of MRT and bus. When we arrived near the suspension bridge, we could hear the clear chirping of birds and the air was exceptionally fresh, as if all the noise had been left far away.
The construction style of Baishihu Suspension Bridge is simple and solid. The entire suspension bridge spans across the lake. The bridge body is made of steel cables and wooden boards. It is stable yet retains its primitive charm. Standing on the bridge, you are surrounded by green mountains, the water of Baishi Lake is sparkling, and a few water birds occasionally fly over the lake, giving people a feeling of tranquility and harmony.
2. Walk across the suspension bridge - the beautiful interweaving of lakes and mountains
The Baishihu Suspension Bridge is of moderate length and it takes about 10-15 minutes to walk across it. Walking on the wooden bridge, you can occasionally hear the sound of wooden boards colliding with your footsteps. The design of the suspension bridge is very unique. Although it is suspended in the air, it is quite stable to walk on. You can experience a slight shaking feeling, as if you are integrated with the surrounding nature.
Looking down from the suspension bridge, the surface of Baishi Lake is shimmering under the sunlight. The lake is surrounded by dense green trees, with several small islands floating on the lake and undulating mountains in the distance, giving people a feeling of peace and tranquility. I stayed on the bridge for a moment, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and felt the breath of nature. I seemed to have become one with the scenery.
3. The natural landscape around Baishi Lake: green trails
On the other side of the suspension bridge is the trail surrounding Baishi Lake, where there are many trails suitable for walking and short hikes. Walking along the lake, you can occasionally see a few morning joggers or strolling tourists, all enjoying this peaceful oasis.
The trails along the lake are lined with lush greenery and fresh air. From time to time, you can see some local plants and flowers, adding a touch of bright color to the surrounding scenery. Walking on the trail by the lake, you can hear the sound of wind gently blowing through the leaves, see small fish swimming in the lake, and occasionally see little squirrels jumping between the branches, lively and cute.
Baishi Lake is not only suitable for taking photos, but also a good place to relax and feel the nature. If you have more time, you may want to continue along the trail and explore this hidden natural attraction in depth.
4. The Photographic Charm of Baishihu Suspension Bridge - Capturing Beautiful Moments
As a suspension bridge, Baishihu Suspension Bridge itself is a very suitable place for taking photos. Shooting from different angles can show different beauty. Standing in the middle of the bridge, you can capture the lake, mountains, bridge and the surrounding natural scenery into the camera. It's like a painting.
Not only that, the design of the suspension bridge is also very distinctive, especially the details of the wood grain and steel cables on the bridge deck, which present warm tones under the sunlight. Tourists standing on the bridge can take photos against the backdrop of the lake, mountains and suspension bridge, which can not only record the beautiful scenery but also feel close contact with nature.
