Heping Bridge

Heping Bridge connects mainland Keelung with Peace Island using a concrete and steel structure. The bridge provides both vehicle lanes and walkways, making it the main route to the island for traffic and pedestrians.

The bridge was built and opened in 1935, creating the first permanent link between Keelung's mainland and the island. This project marked a turning point in the city's transportation development.

The name means peace in Chinese and reflects the bridge's role in linking the communities on either side. People use it daily as part of their routine movement through the port city.

The bridge is easy to cross on foot, with clear separation between vehicle traffic and pedestrian paths. It works best to walk across during daylight hours when you can see the harbor and island clearly.

From the walkways, visitors can watch ships entering the harbor and see the natural rock formations along the island's coastline. The view reveals the constant activity of one of the region's busiest ports.
