Xizhi District, Administrative district in New Taipei City, Taiwan

Xizhi District spans 71 square kilometers in a valley between Taipei City and Keelung City, accommodating over 200,000 residents within its boundaries.

The area changed from Kypanas, used by Ketagalan people, to Tsui-tng-ka by Han settlers in 1758, before becoming Shiodome during Japanese administration.

The district maintains several traditional temples and organizes annual lantern festivals, where residents display illuminated decorations throughout local streets.

Two major expressways, National Highway 1 and National Highway 3, connect through Xizhi District, supported by multiple train stations and bus routes.

The district houses headquarters of international electronics companies, including Acer Group and Garmin Asia, making it a technology industry center.
