Remains of Longteng Bridge

About

The remains of Longteng Bridge in Miaoli are a hauntingly beautiful sight. This old railway bridge, built during the Japanese era, was partially destroyed in the 1935 earthquake, leaving behind a series of towering red-brick arches that now stand in a quiet valley. It’s a popular spot for photographers and history buffs, who come to marvel at the craftsmanship and the eerie silence that surrounds the ruins. The area is surrounded by lush greenery, and there’s a short walking trail that takes you right up to the bridge. It’s a bit off the beaten path, but that’s what makes it special—you’ll likely have the place to yourself, especially on a weekday. Pack a picnic and enjoy the solitude.
