Tamsui is a township with a special historical background dating back over 400 years. It was called “Huwei” in the olden days, and the name Tamsui today originated from the Tamsui River. As far back as the Ching Dynasty, Tamsui was an important harbor for boats navigating in the northern area since it is located at the outlet of the Tamsui River, and therefore, its location led to the prosperity and development of the town. Over hundreds of years, Tamsui has experienced historical events and seen stories unfold one after another like a myriad of enthralling plays. These legendary stories still leave us a legacy of cultural treasures today. Now, Tamsui has 23 locations reserved as historical sites scattered among the old streets and ancient alleys, and mountains and fields all over Tamsui that are waiting for us to explore, read and experience. |
