The Zhongxing(中興) River runs through the Zhudong(竹東) urban planning area from south to north; it is Zhudong(竹東) residents' living center and provides daily functions, leisure activities, gathering spaces, and other services via the surrounding waterfront. It embodies the cultural spirit of local Hakka settlements and represents an important blue belt space in the city. In this project, the present situation improvement planning and design are proposed for the waterfront pedestrian space and important nodes, and the surrounding resources and human environment are connected to make the overall moving line and space smoother and more comfortable.
