Moon Bridge, Arched pedestrian bridge in DaHu Park, Taipei, Taiwan.
Moon Bridge is a pedestrian bridge with a high circular arch spanning DaHu Lake in DaHu Park. It connects two park sections through steep ascending and descending paths, with its structure creating a striking reflection on the water's surface.
This structure follows design principles of traditional Chinese moon bridges originally developed for crossing canals in classical Chinese gardens. The bridge represents a modern application of these ancient architectural concepts adapted for contemporary park use.
The circular arch and its reflection in the water form a complete circle, which carries deep meaning in Chinese traditions of balance and harmony. Visitors often pause here to appreciate this visual symbolism while walking through the park.
The bridge entrance is easily accessible near Chenggong Road in Neihu District within the park grounds. Visitors should wear appropriate footwear since the steep stairs can be challenging, especially in wet or rainy conditions.
The bridge structure creates an optical effect where visitors experience both the physical arch and a complete mirror image simultaneously on the water below. This dual perspective changes how the bridge appears depending on where you stand.
