    巴字第1014號:天長地久吊橋[野地旅0145]

    前言:
     
      途中經過天長地久吊橋,下車買點東西喝順便看看風景。
     
    ----------------------正文‧分隔線---------------------
     
    地點:嘉義縣番路鄉觸口村地久吊橋、龍隱寺
    日期:民國九十八年五月十七日
    性質:旅行
     
      第一次看到這個景點名稱,老實說我還挺想帶林怡一同前往的。不過既然林怡要留在家裡,那我先行探路也沒啥關係吧,反正我爸媽一定是天長地久的了。天長地久吊橋其實是兩座吊橋,位於嘉義縣番路鄉的觸口一帶,根據楊貴三老師說,吊橋旁的溪流(八掌溪)溪床中有相當多的化石存在,可惜我們只是短暫停留,沒有多看兩眼。
     
      天長地久吊橋位於觸口,興建於日治昭和十二年(1937),地久吊橋在低處,而天長吊橋在高處,橫跨八掌溪峽谷,煞有氣勢。由於位處於阿里山方向的公田庄到平地間的貨運交通孔道,因此商旅眾多,但由於八掌溪水極不穩定(從八掌溪事件可見一斑),所架竹橋常被沖毀,故由熱心人士集資興建,而天長一名指的是紀念日本天皇的天長節,地久名稱則是紀念皇太妃的地久節,並不是一對戀人恩愛的長長久久這樣。
     
      一樣是礙於時間的關係,我們家人比較喜歡往山裡頭跑,這兩座吊橋人那麼多,我們就興趣缺缺了。倒是一旁的濟公廟龍隱寺吸引了我們的目光,原來是這邊有其他地方的濟公廟前來會香,正好要離開,龍隱寺的濟公附身到乩童身上,出了廟門來送客,雖然儀式很多,但不複雜(就一堆人比手畫腳、敲鑼打鼓放鞭炮),那乩童穿著補丁衣服,拿著破葵扇,還真的是個濟公!
     
      *地久吊橋,其實早已翻新了。
     
      *天長吊橋,在比較高的地方。
     
      *八掌溪河床,現在乾乾的,下起暴雨來就是另一回事!
     
      *龍隱寺。
     
      *真的是濟公。
     
      我對這邊沒有留下太多印象,就是車多人多。不過車多人多的時候就會有奇遇,在這裡的7-11遇到了成大地科系大一的學生來考察,裡面有麗山高中的學妹涵薏。只能說,真是巧遇。
