Shuangxi District

Shuangxi District is an administrative division in the eastern part of New Taipei City that spans a large mountainous area covered by forests and rural settlements. The district contains several villages and rural communities scattered throughout this hilly and forested region.

The district took its present form when Taiwan reorganized its administrative structures following World War II. These changes in local administration reflect the political and administrative transformations that occurred across the island.

The district hosts regular festivals and community gatherings that reflect the daily lives of its residents and keep local traditions alive. People gather in temples and public spaces to celebrate together and maintain their customs.

The area is served by two railway stations that connect it to other parts of the city and provide access for residents and visitors. The best time to visit is during the dry season, when the mountain paths are easier to walk.

The Beishi River Historical Trail runs through the area and offers visitors a walking path to discover the natural surroundings and local sites of historical importance. The path shows how river landscapes and local history are connected to each other.
