| Erren River is a major river in southern Taiwan. The pristine condition of the natural ecology along its banks attracts flocks of birds, where numerous bird nests are built. Schools of fish frolic next to the aquatic plants, while both flora and fauna flourish here. |

The Erren River Waterfront Park features a viewing platform, providing commanding views of the Erren River and the lush green plains, making it the ideal location to get close to nature.
On the highlands adjacent to the banks of the Erren River, there is a park built on 1.5 hectares of district and nationally owned land, which is highly suitable for the establishment of the Erren River Ecological Conservation Area. We are actively creating a network or ecological grid system to protect the native flora and fauna of the Erren River banks.
Alian District is situated at the center of the river basin, close to the urban areas of Kaohsiung and Tainan. It is also near Provincial Highway No. 28 and the interchanges of National Highway No. 1 and No. 3, giving it immense potential for developing an ecological park. |

In addition, the area features a riverside park, ecological conservation area, waterfront park, the Dagangshan water and soil conservation demonstration area, a religious and cultural area, and local agricultural landscapes. Hence, the 7km stretch from the upstream of the Erren River pump station to Fengshan Village is designed as an ecological ranch to bring new destinations to the overall tourism of Alian District.
 The Erren River flows into Alian District via Tianliao. A riverside park has been created from the Dagangshan Hot Spring to the bridge, featuring green vegetation, a moon-watching platform, a star-watching platform, a BBQ area, a wild plant observation area, and a camping area. A freshwater gate is also installed to form an artificial lake where water activities can be conducted. Furthermore, water can be introduced to the pond of the Dagangshan water and soil conservation demonstration area for irrigating the surrounding 80 hectares of land.
The ecological reserve bridge and the Nanxiong Bridge through the "Snake Cave" showcase Erren River’s most elegant curvature. The aquatic plant life thrives here; a large amount of wetland vegetation forms island-like habitats for waterfowl. In order to protect wild animals and plants and ensure they inhabit a safe environment, the area is designed as a habitat and wild animal sanctuary where they can forage for food, grow, and breed. |
