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:
“At sundown, leaving the river road awhile for shortness, we went by way of Enfield, where we stopped for the night. This, like most of the localities bearing names on this road, was a place to name which, in the midst of the unnamed and unincorporated wilderness, was to make a distinction without a difference, it seemed to me.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
