Enjoy a Cycling Tour around Agongdian Reservoir

 Located at the convergence of Kaohsiung's Gangshan, Yanchao, and Tianliao districts, Agongdian Reservoir boasts a waterside bike trail that goes all the way around this scenic landscape feature. In spring, the route is beautified by blossoming Pink Shower trees. As cyclists cross the suspension bridge, they can enjoy a panoramic view of the area's impressive topography.

 The 8-kilometer-long bicycle trail that encircles Agongdian Reservoir features flat avenues and long, straight embankments. On one side, there is a shimmering waterfront; on the other, there is the lush greenery of Agongdian Forest Park. The refreshing environment makes people feel relaxed and rejuvenated.

 Every April, as the Pink Shower trees erupt into color around the Forest Park's ecological pond, butterflies soar high and roam freely. During firefly season, which runs from early April to mid-May, after-dark visitors will feel as if they have wandered into a surreal and magical wonderland.

 After riding around Agongdian, the energetic or the hungry might want to head to nearby Dagangshan to enjoy delectable free-range chicken dishes, or to brew a pot of tea while appreciating a night view of the city. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely bike ride amid mild breezes while reveling in mesmerizing natural scenery.  

 Leidayipin Free-range Chicken Town is an especially popular restaurant. Its signature dishes include Sweet Acacia Chicken Soup, Plum Chicken Soup, Fried Taro Balls, and Stir-fried Ma Bamboo Shoots. These simple yet timeless flavors attract a steady stream of customers. From the outdoor tea-making area, visitors take in pleasing views over the lowlands toward Gangshan.

 On the other side of Dagangshan, there is a hillside courtyard restaurant named Nature Simple. Owner Chen Su-yun, a tea connoisseur with decades of experience, says: “Savoring tea is a gradual process that must be done with heart. People's moods are settled as a result of the transformation of space, and they come to enjoy drinking tea.”

 As night falls, lights within nearby homes gradually come on, and the fragrance of tea permeates the air. In this delightful place, surrounded by lush greenery, you can spend leisure time with friends, chatting about everything and nothing.

阿公店水庫 御風逍遙遊

  位於高雄岡山、燕巢與田寮區交界的阿公店水庫,擁有環繞水庫的自行車道。春季,花旗木炸開粉紅大道,騎自行車行經吊橋,秀麗山水風光盡收眼底,接著前往鄰近的大崗山,享用土雞料理,泡茶賞夜景,愜意的鐵馬小旅行,迎向徐徐微風,賞遊阿公店的湖光山色。

  阿公店環繞水庫的自行車道全長約8公里,大多為平緩林蔭道,筆直的長堤,一面是遼闊的水色,另一面是蔥鬱翠綠的阿公店森林公園,讓人心曠神怡。

  每年四月,阿公店森林公園的生態池畔花旗木綻放,園區內生態豐富,蝴蝶翩飛、獨角仙棲息,四月初至五月中旬進入螢火蟲季,閃爍點點螢光,似走入超現實魔幻秘境。  

  結束鐵馬小旅行,前往鄰近的大崗山,品嚐位在大崗山的人氣餐廳「雷達壹品土雞城」。招牌料理是刺仔雞湯、梅子雞、炸芋丸、清炒麻筍等,簡單卻雋永的好滋味,吸引絡繹不絕的饕客,戶外泡茶區視野遼闊,可俯瞰岡山平原的景色。

  大崗山的另一側,是依山坡而建的院落「坐看雲起時人文空間」,女主人陳素雲分享品茗30餘年的茶道:「喝茶節奏緩慢,需用心體會。希望走進來的人,因空間轉換而沈澱心境,喜歡上喝茶。」

隨著夜幕低垂,萬家燈火逐漸點亮,桌上茶香氤氳,在這處綠意環抱的山居,與三五好友話家常,共渡悠閒時光。
