漫步浪漫水岸花都
豐原葫蘆墩圳水岸花都,為中部最悠久的灌溉水圳之一,已有百年歷史,1978年起曾被鋼筋水泥覆蓋充作停車場,經掀蓋工程1.2公里,長達39年的水道挖出,重見天日並重新裝扮,結合景觀營造及綠化保水,創造大面積植栽,更在步道下方設置水撲滿,改造國小老校門及圍牆綠籬化,並在兩座廣場設置地景藝術,夜間在燈光投射倒影下,極具浪漫。
A waterfront for romantic walks
Huludun Waterfront in Fengyuan was one of the oldest irrigation canals in Central Taiwan, and has a century-old history. It was once covered with reinforced concrete and used as a parking lot from 1978, but after a 1.2-kilometer cover-removal project, the 39-year-old waterway was dug out and renovated. It integrates landscape construction and water conservation, where a large area for planting was created. A water storage tank was also set up below the walkway, renovating and greening the old school gate and fence of the elementary school. Land artworks have also been installed on the two plazas, creating an extremely romantic atmosphere at night under the reflection of lights.
