Danhai New Town, Urban development project in Tamsui District, Taiwan
Danhai New Town is a modern residential area north of central Tamsui featuring apartment complexes, shopping centers, and open spaces spread across a large district. Transportation networks connect residential blocks, educational campuses, and commercial zones in an organized layout.
Development began in the 1990s as a response to population growth in the Taipei region and the need to expand residential areas beyond the congested center. Systematic construction of roads and utilities allowed the district to grow rapidly into a functioning urban neighborhood.
Educational institutions draw students who shape the everyday rhythm of the area with campus activities and social gatherings. The mix of student life and residential spaces gives the district a youthful character that influences how people use public areas.
The light rail station connects this area directly to central Taipei, making car-free travel straightforward and convenient. Walking paths and bicycle routes run throughout the district, with shopping centers located in central areas easily reached on foot.
A major shopping center here contains a McDonald's location notably larger than others in the area, drawing visitors curious about the oversized restaurant. The center combines this distinctive outlet with a cinema and various stores in one central location.
