Keelung City (基隆市) is divided into a number of districts with generic KMT names: Rén'ài District (仁愛區) encompasses the historic downtown core at the foot of the harbour; Zhōngshān (中山區) follows the shoreline to the west; and Zhōngzhèng District (中正區), which includes Hépíng Island (和平島) and Badouzi (八斗子) sprawls to the northeast. For the purposes of this blog, this region amalgamates the four districts next to the waterfront, leaving only Qidu and Nuannuan in the interior as separate locales.
