Three secret sunset spots along the Hsinchu coast - Harp Bridge, the sand dunes, Nangang Station

After several consecutive days of record-breaking heat, the high temperatures only ease slightly toward evening. How should you plan an evening itinerary? Hsinchu City - recommended. The recently famous photography spot Harp Bridge has replaced its 18 projector lights for the first time, becoming more beautiful as night falls and drawing crowds of photography enthusiasts who make a pilgrimage to capture the sunset and night views. In addition, along the 17-kilometer coastline, "Xiangshan Sand Dunes" and "Nangang Station" both offer the most beautiful sunsets. The changing colors of the sky from sunset to nightfall can be called the three scenery spots of Xiangshan. After enjoying the sunset, take a night ride along the 17-kilometer coastline, with the sea breeze blowing gently, and LED lighting all along the route for safety and comfort, escaping the intense heat and enjoying the beauty of a summer night.

The Hsinchu City Marketing Department said that Harp Bridge, which spans the West Coast Highway, has always been a popular spot for photography lovers and tourists to take photos and check in because of its unique shape, and it even appeared on the cover of the annual calendar of a famous Japanese camera brand in 2012.

The Hsinchu City Marketing Department said that the second sunset hotspot, Xiangshan Sand Dunes, is also known as the "desert secret spot." With endless sand dunes and plants such as beach vitex and beach morning glory, some netizens joke that coming here feels like being abroad, with a sense of desert wilderness. If you arrive at dusk, the sunset paired with colorful clouds is like a filter, making the dunes feel even more exotic.

In addition, the third hotspot, Nangang Station, is located at the final point of the 17-kilometer coastline. Yen Chang-sheng, director of the City Marketing Department, said that the 17-kilometer Nangang Station was transformed with minimal, low-intensity development, so visitors can observe nature from different perspectives, and at night there is lighting, giving the observation deck a different style. After the completion of Nangang Station at the end of the 17-kilometer Smiling Waterfront, nighttime lighting was launched, and the entire 17-kilometer coastline was also switched to LED lighting. Together with the replacement of the projector lights at Harp Bridge this time, night riding will become safer and more enjoyable.
