The bridge was replaced with a two-lane version after the old photo at the top of the post was taken, when traffic was allowed on the bridge, carts, etc. The two lane version had the lanes separated by a kind of cage. Then in the 1990's that was replaced by the current bridge, which is one-lane but closed to traffic, with lighter elements and more prone to swaying.Poagaohttp://poagao.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252080048017373240.post-62666265580832681502011-10-19T23:38:10.815-10:002011-10-19T23:38:10.815-10:00In 1st photo, there are four square boards hanging...In 1st photo, there are four square boards hanging on the side of the suspension bridge. Each board carries one Chinese word on it. Altogether, four Chinese are 「反共抗俄」.<br /><br />「反」means「anti, or against」<br /><br />「共」means「Communists」<br /><br />「抗」means「resist or withstand」.<br /><br />「俄」means「Russia」.<br /><br />I think that's not only Taiwan but alson American troops stationed in Taiwan were doing in that great times.新聞老鳥https://www.blogger.com/profile/00091049986873845562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5252080048017373240.post-63261935685184352342011-10-18T18:02:02.790-10:002011-10-18T18:02:02.790-10:00Kent, Thanks for the pictures.
