Therefore, the Cishan Bridge, which connects both sides of the Nanzixian River, holds an extremely important position. Typhoon Morakot in 2009 severely damaged the Cishan Bridge, causing inconvenience to Cishan's transportation and greatly affecting its economy. The new Cishan Bridge was designed with the concept of a single-pylon cable-stayed bridge with landmark scenery. The bridge is 535 meters long and 22 meters wide. It uses large-span cantilever construction to reduce piers and is adorned with 13 pairs of symmetrical stay cables, with a design that incorporates the imagery of banana baskets from Meinong and Cishan. After its opening at the end of 2010, the bridge with its elegant structural lines blends into the beautiful and natural Qiewei Mountain and Nanzixian River. Coupled with LED projection and lighting at night, it has become a new landmark of Cishan.
