Jinlun Bridge, Modern bridge in Taimali, Taiwan.
Jinlun Bridge is a four-lane road bridge in Taimali Township, Taitung County, Taiwan, built over the Jinlun River. It forms part of the South-Link Highway, the main road corridor running along Taiwan's southeastern coast.
The bridge was completed in 2017, replacing an older and narrower crossing that could no longer handle the growing traffic on the South-Link Highway. Its construction was part of a broader effort to upgrade road infrastructure along Taiwan's eastern coast.
The bridge crosses the Jinlun River in the rural township of Taimali, in Taitung County, Taiwan. It carries traffic along the South-Link Highway over the riverbed, connecting coastal communities on both sides.
The bridge sits directly on the South-Link Highway, the main road along Taiwan's southeastern coast, so most travelers passing through Taimali Township will cross it naturally. There is no toll or special access required, and the route is straightforward for drivers heading between coastal towns.
Although it is a plain road bridge, the crossing offers a direct view of the Jinlun River's mouth, where the freshwater meets the Pacific. This spot is rarely visible from the road and goes unnoticed by most drivers passing through.
