Description of Our Community: Tamsui is located at the northern tip of Taiwan, surrounded by mountains and the sea, with beautiful scenery and a rich cultural heritage. Since the 17th century, it has been an important port in northern Taiwan, witnessing the historical transitions of the Dutch, Spanish, Qing, and Japanese periods. Fort San Domingo, a landmark from the Dutch era, symbolizes Tamsui’s early international trade and cultural exchange. During the Qing dynasty, Tamsui Port became a key gateway for foreign commerce and contributed to the development of education and religion, as seen in the establishment of Oxford College and Tamsui Church. Today, Tamsui blends history with modernity, featuring renowned attractions such as Fort San Domingo, Tamsui Old Street, and Fisherman’s Wharf. With its well-preserved historical buildings and traditional markets, Tamsui continues to radiate a distinctive cultural charm and vibrant human spirit.
