Minquan Bridge

Minquan Bridge is a road crossing over the Keelung River in Taipei, connecting areas on both sides with a concrete and steel structure. It has six lanes for vehicles and separate paths for pedestrians.

The bridge opened in 1982 as part of Taipei's rapid urbanization during that period. It helped improve infrastructure connections between different parts of the city that had been developing quickly.

The name Minquan comes from Mandarin Chinese and means civil rights, reflecting how the structure serves as a link between different neighborhoods and supports daily interaction within the city.

The bridge has heavy traffic during the day and offers safe walkways clearly separated from the roadway. It is best to cross during daylight and take time to use the pedestrian areas, which are well-defined.

The bridge is favored by cyclists and serves as an important route for two-wheeled traffic in this part of the city. Many local riders use it daily for their journeys across the area.
