The dilapidated remains of a suspension bridge a river deep in the mountains of Taoyuan. It was constructed in 1910 to facilitate access to Indigenous communities to the east, later under the jurisdiction of Yingshan Police Garrison (鷹山駐在所). Two generations of steel cables remain in place as the bridge was upgraded at some point. It might still be possible to cross with gloves and care but it isn’t advised. Descent to the riverbed also seems possible at this site.
Warning: this location is abandoned, hazardous, or otherwise neglected and may be unsafe and even dangerous! Exercise appropriate precautions when visiting.

I am a web application developer, photojournalist, urban explorer, and history enthusiast passionate about the open web and documenting my experiences on this planet. This project was founded in the early 2010s and has evolved into a sort of personal Wikipedia of places that interest me (and often the photographs I’ve taken there). I’m originally from Toronto, Canada, but spend most of my time residing in Taiwan.
