Zhongli District in Taoyuan City was originally a Hakka settlement. In Hakka, the valley is called Li, and the area surrounded by the Laojie River and Xinjie River was called Jianzai. During the Japanese occupation, this area was renamed Zhongli Street, becoming a major thoroughfare connecting the north and south.The area along the Laojie River(32769;34903;28330;) is known as the Old Street Area, preserving Japanese-style architecture, century-old shops, and a rich Hakka culture.
