Jiuluming Bridge

Jiuluming Bridge is a pedestrian crossing in Yanping built using traditional timber arch construction techniques. The structure serves both as a functional passage and as a location tied to Taiwan's historical record, integrating practical use with memorial purpose.

The bridge was constructed during the 1950s in connection with events from February 1947 that marked a turning point in Taiwan's modern history. Its creation after this period made it a physical anchor for processing and remembering what occurred.

The bridge functions as a memorial space where the local community gathers to acknowledge a difficult chapter in Taiwan's past. Visitors can see commemorative markers and plaques integrated into the site that prompt reflection on these events.

The site is best accessed on foot and requires no special equipment or preparation to explore. Visitors should allow time to read the markers and explanations placed throughout the location.

The bridge is often overlooked despite being one of few physical places where the difficult events of 1947 are actively acknowledged and processed. The location allows visitors to engage with history not merely through words but by standing in an actual place central to these events.
