The beautiful bridge has a unique shape and is exclusively for pedestrian and bicycle use. The wooden deck design is embedded on the bridge body with a story of Yingge’s kilning history and cultural background. The bridge body is dragon-shaped, implying an auspicious sign of good luck. On both ends of the bridge there is an 1804 Future Square and at night, you can see a full-color light sculpture. It is one of the best scenic spots of Yingge.





Hsin Ying Bridge

 

The original design of the multi-functional land bridge in front of Yingge Ceramics Museum was from the elongated space of design of the Snake Kiln.
