Pingtung City, Pingtung County 屏東縣屏東市遊記

Pingtung City is north of Wandan.  It's also across the Kaoping (Gaoping) River from Kaohsiung City. 屏東市位於萬丹北部 ,與 高雄市隔著高屏溪

For some local history you can click here.  I can't think of any major historic events that happened in the area, but Pingtung City has been around for a while. 這篇文章介紹屏東市的歷史 。  我想不起來這裡發生過的重要事件 , 但我知道屏東市有著悠久的歷史。

According to the last census, 195,862 people live in Pingtung City.  This means that almost a fourth of the people in Pingtung County live in Pingtung City. 上次人口統計記載屏東市的人口是195,862人 。  屏東縣四分之一的人住在屏東市 。


Pingtung City at night, not far from the Carrefour near Dzeyo Road.  Pingtung City is definitely more fun after sundown. 在家樂福自由店附近 ,  無疑地,太陽下山後的屏東市比較有趣。


The pond in Pingtung Park.  Many local events are held here.  Last year's Christmas lights were pretty. 屏東公園的水池 。 很多當地的活動都在這個公園舉辦,  去年聖誕節的燈會很漂亮。


One of the old city gates.  I believe this is the only one still standing.  It's between Pingtung Park and the stadium. 這是阿猴古城唯一留下來的的古城門,  它在屏東公園體育場中間 。


The lights in the County Resident Park last winter.  This park is closer to the industrial area south of downtown, and is too far to walk to from the Pingtung Train Station. 去年冬天縣民公園的燈會 。  這個公園比較靠近市區南邊的工業區 , 從屏東火車站來的觀光客要坐車才能到。


The lights at this event are worth seeing.  In my opinion they look even better on a rainy night. 這裡的燈很值得看 ,  尤其是在下雨的夜晚。



The Pingtung Riverside Park.  This place is even further outside the city, and last weekend was the first time I went there.  The highlight of this area is the old iron bridge which used to span the Gaoping (Kaoping) River between Pingtung and Kaohsiung.  There's another park in Jiouqutang, across the river in Kaohsiung, where you'll find the other remaining section of the bridge. 屏東河濱公園 。這裡離市區更遠, 上周末是我第一次去這個公園。  公園最有趣的部分是以前橫跨高屏溪連結起高雄屏東的舊鐵橋 。  溪的另外一邊的高雄市九曲堂還有一個公園 , 那個公園裡也留著舊鐵橋的一部份。


This place is very empty, and I'm not sure why they mow it so aggressively.  I think it would look a lot better if they let parts of it return to their natural state. 這個公園很空曠,  我不知道為什麼那麼多草被割掉了 , 我覺得保留這塊地多一點原本的自然風貌會比較漂亮。

I found this old mango orchard kind of spooky. 我覺得這個舊芒果園有點恐怖。


This is near the old iron bridge.  In the background is the train line to Kaohsiung. 在舊鐵橋附近 ,背景是往高雄的鐵路 。


This train used to take people across the river.  Now it's a kind of museum / exhibition space which hasn't been looked after in a while.  There are historic photos within. 很久以前這輛火車會帶人到高雄 , 現在火車裡面是展覽館 ,裡面有歷史照片,只是這展覽館好像很久都沒被照顧整理了。


The old iron bridge, or Lower Danshui River Iron Bridge.  This section extends from the park all the way to the river. 舊鐵橋 ,或是下淡水溪鐵橋 ,  這一段從公園一直延伸到溪岸 。


The Pingtung Train Station on a Saturday morning. 禮拜六早上的屏東車站 。


The view from the front of the station.  Almost all of the historic sites in Pingtung City are within walking distance of this place. 在車站前門 ,  屏東的歷史景點大多在這附近, 步行就可到達。


Tsefeng Temple, not far from the train station.  It's a very big temple, and it's also very historic, but the view from the top floor isn't worth the effort. 靠近火車站的慈鳳宮 ,  這所廟很大 , 也有很長的歷史 , 可是頂樓看出去的風景沒有什麼看頭。


Jongjeng Road, on the way to Sogo.  There are many, many buildings for rent or for sale along this road.  COVID?  Or just not the best place to open a business? 靠近太平洋百貨附近的中正路 。  這條路上要出租和出售的地產很多 , 是疫情的關係嗎 ?  還是這條路上的生意真那麼差 ?


7-11 near the train station.  Long ago this area was very different, and this building was probably built next to another one. 火車站附近的7-11。  這個地區應該變化很大,這個建築物當時旁邊大概有其他的大樓。

Other places in Pingtung City?  Honestly, there aren't that many points of interest.  I suppose you could go to the art museum or visit the night market near the train station.  This "village," recently renovated, is a new tourist attraction, but I can't say whether it's worth visiting or not.  The last time I went there was before the renovation. 屏東市還有其他景點嗎 ?  其實屏東市的景點不多 ,  大家可以去美術館或火車站附近的夜市 ,還有最近整修完成的勝利村新景點 , 只是整修之後我還沒去過。
