TAIPEI (Taiwan News) — The Dajia section of Taichung City's coastal bikeway system is the perfect place on a summer weekend or holiday to enjoy the sea breeze and coastal views.

The coastal bikeway's Dajia section starts at Sungpo Fishing Port (松柏漁港) in the north, goes along the top of the Hsi-Chi Dyke, and ends at the Shuangliao Dyke to the south, according to a press release from the Taichung Tourism and Travel Bureau. The extravagantly beautiful ride is also made convenient by three resting spots along the way.

After passing underneath the elevated bridge of the Western Coastal Express (Provincial Highway 61), ride eastward on Beiti West Road, which runs parallel to the Daan River, where shoreside landscapes mix with idyllic farms. Riding further along Beiti West Road will take cyclists to where Taichung City and Miaoli County meet.    [FULL  STORY]
