Tainan Sports Park covers an area of over 20 hectares and is affectionately known as the "Haherna Forest," becoming a popular recreational destination for both locals and visitors. The park features facilities such as basketball courts, a children's playground, and expansive green spaces, offering a variety of activity areas to meet the needs of different age groups. Whether for sports, leisure, or relaxation, it provides an ideal environment for people to enjoy nature and a healthy lifestyle.

Opposite the playground stands a stunning bridge, its unique design capturing the attention of many visitors. This bridge is not only a major highlight of the park but also a popular spot for photo-taking and social media check-ins. Its structure and appearance complement the surrounding natural landscape, adding an artistic touch to the entire park.

The bridge is covered with ShangKai Steel's SKA20-76 expanded metal, offering a subtle yet modern aesthetic that complements the surrounding wooden elements of the contemporary Zen style. The minimalist metallic texture blends seamlessly with the warm tones of natural wood, creating a serene and tranquil atmosphere.

ShangKai Steel's SKA20-76 expanded metal not only adds a modern element to the bridge but also showcases its exceptional quality, providing assurance in the durability of the building material. Combining aesthetics with practicality, it has become the top choice for public infrastructure projects.
