Old photos of Taiwan’s Danshui in 1895, the style and features of Huwei Fort and market streets 120 years ago

Let’s share a group of old photos of Taiwan’s Danshui in 1895. At that time, Danshui had just been occupied by the Japanese (the territory ceded after the failure of the Sino Japanese War), and its development seemed to be very backward, far behind the large and medium-sized cities in the mainland at that time

Recommended reading: Japanese were in Taipei at the same time ( http://www.laozhaopian5.com/qingchao/1452.html ) and Keelung ( http://www.laozhaopian5.com/qingchao/1491.html )

At that time, fresh water is now a fresh water area, located in the northwest coast of Xinbei City, Taiwan Province, on the north side of the estuary of Danshui River, adjacent to Sanzhi District in the north, Beitou District in Taipei City in the south, and Taiwan Strait in the west. The southwest and Bali District are separated by Danshui River. Riverside scenery is beautiful. It has been one of the eight scenic spots in Taiwan since ancient times; Venice of the East” It is called. It was once the largest port in Taiwan in history, and also the starting point for the spread of Western civilization in northern Taiwan. Today’s Danshui District is adjacent to Sanzhi District in the north, Guandu and Taipei in the south, Taiwan Strait in the west, and is separated by eight miles of water
