Dongfeng Bicycle Path - Tunnel No. 9 & Dajia River Bridge

Location: Next to No. 50, Lane 2, Lane 260, Puzi Street, Fengyuan District, Taichung City

Introduction: Dajia River Iron Bridge, commonly known as Dajia River Hualiang Steel Bridge, is a railway bridge on the old mountain line of Taiwan Railway. It belongs to the Houli-Huludun (now Fengyuan Station) section completed on April 10, 1908. It crosses the middle reaches of Dajia River and was a very important north-south connecting bridge of the original longitudinal railway. After the Houli-Fengyuan section of the Old Mountain Line was discontinued on October 8, 1997, it was planned to be part of the Houfeng Railway and was announced as a historical building on February 6, 2004. It is one of the few remaining steel truss bridges in Taiwan.
Tunnel No. 9 was built in 1908 and has a history of 100 years. It is 1,273 meters long and was originally a section of the old mountain line railway tunnel. However, it was abandoned after the completion of the new mountain line.

Opening hours: 6:00-19:00

Tickets: Free

Experience: Dajiaxi Iron Bridge and Tunnel No. 9 are must-see attractions on the bike trail. Whether standing on the bridge or in the tunnel, there are different feelings and artistic conception. If you want to take beautiful photos like me, come and take a ride on the Dongfeng bike path.
