Niuchou River Bridge, Railway bridge in Chiayi County, Taiwan
The Niuchou River Bridge connects the Alishan Forest Railway segments across mountainous terrain, enabling transportation through dense forest areas at 23.5 degrees north latitude.
This engineering structure, completed in 2008, represents a modernization phase of the Alishan Forest Railway network that started operations for timber transport in 1912.
The bridge forms part of a railway system that transformed from industrial use to a transportation network connecting local communities and supporting regional tourism development.
Visitors access the bridge via the Alishan Forest Railway, with trains departing from Chiayi Station through multiple daily services between spring and autumn.
The bridge carries narrow-gauge trains through different climate zones, from tropical lowlands to temperate mountain environments within a single journey.
