The Xindian Creek (or Xindian River) (Chinese: 新店溪; pinyin: xīn diàn xī) is a creek in northern Taiwan. It flows through New Taipei and the capital Taipei for 82 km. The Feitsui Dam spans the creek southeast of Taipei.
Famous quotes containing the word river:
“This ferry was as busy as a beaver dam, and all the world seemed anxious to get across the Merrimack River at this particular point, waiting to get set over,—children with their two cents done up in paper, jail-birds broke lose and constable with warrant, travelers from distant lands to distant lands, men and women to whom the Merrimack River was a bar.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
