Taipei Bitan Green Lake

Photo from one of the military guys stationed here in the 1970s

One of my hiking trails
There use to be an old amusement park at the top of the trail.
See some old photos here: The Xingfu Amusement Park, then and now.
The last time I went hiking there in the summer 2010, the city was doing some
construction work in the old amusement area. Maybe a new park is coming?

This is a screen capture from a 1931 (?) Japanese newsreel on Taiwan (see video links)

You can just make out the construction of the Bitan walk bridge.
