Bikeways of HouFong and DongFong

In summer vacation, I and my classmate went to bikeway to enjoy riding bikes in the beautiful view of countryside. HouFong bikeway was once the way for train, but it becomes a way for people to ride bikes now. In the route, we passed the Tunnel No.9 and The Variegated Beam Steel Bridge. There are some stores or stands selling food and drink for people. Oh, there is a kind of ice shavings called snowflakes ice shavings. It tastes wonderful especially in hot summer.

This is the Tunnel No.9. It was built in the time when Taiwan was colonized by Japan. In the tunnel, you can see some old pictures. Besides, you may feel cool even a little cold.



This is The Variegated Beam Steel Bridge. Riding in the bridge and watching the Dajia River below the bridge. It's really cool.



←Delicious lunch~~
→This is the famous snowflakes ice shavings!!! According to the boss, this has been sold for thirty year!!! It's really delicious!!!


The end of HouFong bikeway~
It's about six kilometers from the beginning to the end.

HouFong bikeway and DongFong bikeway are connected. Therefore, we kept riding to the DongFong bikeway. In this path, we saw a lot of different works of art and some cute three-dimensional simplified maps.


This one of those works of art. It is in a special tandem bicycle shape. It has four seats for people to take picture on it.



I think this is the cutest map I've ever seen. It records the route in a cute way. There are no words in it. Simplified images are the only thing that on the map like use train to replace the train station.

In addition, the most beautiful view to me is the ''Green Tunnel.'' On the both sides of the route will plant plenty of trees. The trees stretched their branches and overlapped with others' branches.

This is what I called the "Green Tunnel."
It's really beautiful!!!




Oh, this work of art is made by many useless bikes.
Its appearance was painted in silver, so it seemed very wonderful.
Very amazing!!!
Though my legs ached very serious at the next day, I still very enjoyed the experience. Since that day, I've fallen in love with riding bike. I even finished the whole route. The totally length is twelve kilometers and I spent about four hours to finish it. Riding with my friend was very happy. We encouraged each other to keep riding until the end. It was one of my valuable memories. Unforgettable one!!!

The Green Tunnel is very beautiful!!! Riding along that road must make people feel relaxed,right? It's really a good way for people to get away from the bustling city. Great Activity!!! I want to give it a try someday.

It seems pretty interesting and maybe I already figure out where to go this winter vacation. Haha...thanks for helping. By the way, Hua Lien is also a nice place to go and I'm sure you'll have fun there. Maybe you can go there next time. How about the winter vacation?
