Planning notes for Taipei
Taipei is a municipality located in northern Taiwan, situated within the Taipei Basin and bordered by the Tamsui, Keelung, and Xindian rivers. The history of the area includes early habitation by the Ketagalan people, followed by periods of Spanish and Dutch presence in the 17th century. During the Qing Dynasty in the 18th century, Han Chinese settlers established permanent communities in districts such as Bangka and Dadaocheng. In 1884, a stone wall was constructed to enclose the city center.
