Dali District () is an inner city district in Taichung, Taiwan.

Name

The name "Dali" originates from Tai-li-khit (), where Tai-li refers to the Hoanya aborigines and khit refers to a bamboo raft's toon. The word "khit" () means a tiny wooden post, referring to the time as a port city.

History

After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China in 1945, Dali was organized as a rural township of Taichung County. On 1 November 1993, Dali was upgraded to a county-administered city due to its population. On 25 December 2010, Taichung County was merged with Taichung City and Dali was upgraded to a district of the city.

Administrative divisions

The current administrative divisions can be traced back to the 1920s under the Japanese administration, during which the local government set the village, (Ōsato village), under the Taiton district, Taichū Shyō (Taichung today).

At first, the village has eight villages. After the handover of Taiwan from Japan, it has changed into Dali Township (大里鄉) under Taichung Country. On November 1, 1993, Dali Township changed into Dali City (大里市). In 2010, the city was renamed into Dali District under the newly founded Taichung City.

There are 27 villages with 767 alleys in the district. Each villages are:

Tunghu, Xihu, Dali, Xinli, Guoguang, Shuwang, Xiangxing, Neixin, Zhongxin, Tungsheng, Dayuan, Jiatian, Renhua, Rende, Jianmin, Tucheng, Tungxing, Daming, Yonglong, Rixin, Xirong, Zhangrong, Jincheng, Liren, Lide, Xinren and Ruicheng Village.
