BIKE RIDE IN XIN ZHUANG, TAIPEI CITY

One of the many things I look forward to visiting Taiwan are bike rides around the city. The fact that commute is not as accessible as it is in the Philippines, riding bikes eliminate walking a distance from one place to the another. Well to cut the story short, NO WALKING!!! Hahaha

The morning of New Year’s Eve 2016, while everyone began preparing for the celebration, my parents decided to have a bike-bonding first before we start ours. They also saw this as an opportunity to keep me and my sister on our feet and burn some carbs. Hahaha!

In order to steer clear of traffic, we took farther routes. However, we witnessed remarkable behind the scene views of the city.

A wide football/soccer field…

A vast space allotted for enthusiasts who fly radio-controlled aircraft…

We had an hour and a half ride from our place, Shu Lin, to reach the Xin Zhuang Bridge. It was mainly built for recreational purposes. There were runners, cyclist, or people who just wanted to stroll with their pets.

If you're not a morning person, no worries. Some say the night scene is as beautiful because of the lights tracing the form of the bridge.

Yo Mama striking that pose! Hahaha

Amazing view of the city….

This is the overlooking view from the bridge.

And a bicycle obstacle course, at least that what it looks like… Hahaha

So by any chance you visit Taiwan, borrow a bike, or rent one to get to experience a spectacular moment just within the city.

Enjoy!
