Liyutan Arch Bridge

The Liyutan Arch Bridge is a modern steel structure that crosses the areas near Liyutan Reservoir in Miaoli County. It connects mountainous terrain and serves as an important passage through an area dotted with tea plantations and hiking routes.

Construction of this bridge was completed in September 1998, marking the start of a new phase of infrastructure development in the mountainous region. The project was part of Taiwan's broader effort to improve transportation links in remote areas.

The area around the bridge reflects Hakka traditions, where visitors encounter traditional indigo dyeing workshops and local food specialties in nearby villages. The surrounding communities maintain these craft practices as part of their daily cultural identity.

Access to the bridge is available throughout the year and leads to hiking trails, tea plantations, and recreational areas nearby. Multiple parking spaces are located close by, making visits convenient for those arriving by car.

The arch design of this structure was specifically engineered to withstand the particular environmental stresses of mountain terrain and local weather conditions. This construction choice allows the bridge to remain stable over decades while blending into the surrounding landscape.
