The Hualien Bridge in Taiwan Is Broken Into Several Pieces, And People Are Stuck in The Middle Of The Bridge

At 14:44 on the 18th, a magnitude 6.9 earthquake occurred in Hualien County, Taiwan. According to Taiwan's United News Network, Chike Mountain, a well-known bounty needle flower resort, collapsed on the road, trapping a large number of tourists, including about 300-400 people in the store.

After the earthquake, the maximum earthquake intensity reached 6 in various places, Taitung Chishang had a 6-strong earthquake and Hualien Yuli had a 6-weak earthquake, causing the collapse of Yuli Station and the rupture of the Gaolio Bridge.

Chike Mountain, which is as famous as Sixty Stone Mountain, is famous for its golden needle flower sea. During the golden needle flower season from August to September, the whole hill is full of yellow golden needle flowers. At this time, it is the golden needle flower season, and there are many tourists going up the mountain.

Li Guangbin, director-general of the Chike Mountain Community Development Association, said that after today's strong earthquake, a slope collapsed at 10.5 kilometers from the main Lianwai road in Chike Mountain, and a large amount of soil and rocks fell, causing road interruption.

He said that about 300-400 shopkeepers and tourists who went up the mountain were trapped on the mountain and could not go down the mountain. At present, there was no electricity and no signal. Everyone dared not stay in the house and exchanged messages on the road. Due to the constant aftershocks, although there was still a road leading down the mountain It was a small road, but it was usually difficult to travel. At this time, I didn't know the road conditions, so I didn't dare to go.

Yuli Town Office has received reports of the disaster from various places and is in the process of compiling and processing.
