Land-readjustment housing on the south bank of the old Hanxi River, with Xingda just over Guoguang Bridge
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
After Guoguang Road opened in 1981, people who worked in downtown Taichung started moving into Dali. This neighborhood is close to downtown, so Daming Li's population grew fast, and high-rises have sprung up all over Dongxing Li. Yonglong Li is a newer community from the second phase of land readjustment, with rows of housing and wide streets, and by the end of 2025 it had 14,248 residents. For a stroll, head to the bank of the old Hanxi River: between Jishan Bridge and Guoguang Bridge you'll find Kangqiao Waterfront Park, which has a bike path and a constructed wetland, with National Chung Hsing University just across the river to the north. Cross Guoguang Bridge and you're on the National Chung Hsing University side of South District.
Back on this side of the bridge, this neighborhood ranks 21st out of Taichung's 47 neighborhoods for greenery and 23rd for sidewalks — both in the middle. For schooling, Yonglong Elementary School's catchment covers all of Yonglong Li, while Chongguang Elementary School covers all of Daming, Dongxing, and Xiangxing Li. The core of both school zones happens to land right in this neighborhood.
This neighborhood ranks 40th for everyday convenience and 40th for daily shopping — both toward the lower end among Taichung's 47 neighborhoods. There's no rail station inside the neighborhood; the nearest is TRA Taichung Station, about 1.4 km outside the neighborhood, and the neighborhood ranks 35th for public transit. The district office, Guoguang Flower Market, and National Chung Hsing University Affiliated Senior High School are all over in Guoguang Li to the southwest, which belongs to the neighboring Dali Centre neighborhood.
In the Qing era, this area belonged to Liangsanshu Zhuang, and the hamlets of Jiuzhuang, Dongshiwei, Xidi, and Niaozhuwei are today's five Li of Shuwang, Xiangxing, Dongxing, Yonglong, and Daming. In the late Japanese colonial period, egrets often gathered here, so people nicknamed it 'Niaozaiwei,' and the local baojia administration renamed it Lucun. The August 7 Flood of 1959 destroyed the farmland in Xiangxing, which was later redeveloped into a residential area. In 1964, the private Daming Junior High School was founded here. In 1970, Lucun was split into two villages, Xianglu and Dongxing. 'Xianglu' sounds like the Taiwanese Hokkien phrase for 'the worst,' so in 1993 it was renamed Xiangxing, a pun on 'most prosperous'. In 2002, Dongxing Li's population grew too large, so Daming and Yonglong Li were split off from it. Starting in 2025, Daming Senior High School moved its entire campus to Tanzi.

Maps show the shops and the sights. What a street is like, you only know by walking it. TidyMap uses AI street imagery analysis and public facility data to turn each area's street environment and everyday convenience into something you can compare. Search an address and look at the street outside first.
How to read it: yellow = poor, blue = good; grey = not enough data
TidyMap rates the street environment and everyday convenience. It does not assess the home itself, safety, noise or actual living experience. Street environment scores use AI assessments of imagery; convenience scores use public facility data.
