With the blessings and protection of the gods from Nantian Temple, Longtan Lake and Suspension Bridge are must-visit spots.
Longtan Nantian Temple is the largest temple in Longtan District, established in 1972. It is located on an artificial island in Longtan Lake and is a temple that combines Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism. The temple enshrines Martial Saint Guan Gong, Guanyin Bodhisattva, and the Jade Emperor. The temple stands in the middle of the lake, isolated from the mundane world, resembling the sacred place of the Southern Heavenly Gate in the celestial realm, hence the name 'Nantian Temple.'
'Longtan Tourist Lake' is one of the famous tourist attractions in Taoyuan. Initially, its main functions were to regulate water volume and irrigate farmland. Now, it is a primary recreational spot for local residents. Every year during the Dragon Boat Festival, there are dragon boat races or fireworks displays, making it a lively event.
The newly renovated Longtan Lake Suspension Bridge is very majestic. Standing in the center of the bridge, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the lake. Walking from Nantian Temple to the Nine-Curve Bridge, you can appreciate the design of the nine curves and enjoy different views of the suspension bridge or the lake. At night, the suspension bridge is decorated with colorful lights, presenting a different charm from the daytime. The atmosphere is romantic, colorful, and splendid, making it a favorite dating spot for couples.
