Evening bike rides and ball games by the Xindian River, then home to the lanes of old flats
The closest neighborhoods in the same city.
The eastern edge of this neighborhood runs along the Xindian River, and the riverside park, just outside it, has a cycle path and basketball courts. Walking back from the river, the lanes are a mix of old walk-up flats and new tower blocks; that is how real-estate listings describe the area.
For groceries there is Dayong Street Market, and the local parks are Xiushan Park and Jingxin Park. To get to Xindian, take Exit 1 of Xiulang Bridge Station onto Chenggong Road, head for Xiulang Bridge, and Xindian is on the far side.
Xiulang Elementary School, despite the name, is not in this neighborhood: it stands right next to Xiushan Elementary School but is in Yonghe, and belongs to the neighbouring Yonghe Xiulang.
Public transport ranks 3rd among New Taipei's 100 neighborhoods, in the upper tier. The Circular Line opened on 31 January 2020, and this neighborhood has two of its stations, Xiulang Bridge in the east and Jingping in the west.
Convenience ranks 5th and everyday shopping 14th, both in the upper tier.
School catchments are clear-cut: Xiushan Elementary School's covers eight villages, Xiushan, Xiucheng, Xiuyi, Xiufu, Xiujing, Xiushui, Xiuren and Xiuming, while Jingxin Elementary School's includes the three villages of Jingnan, Xiufeng and Xiushi.
Jingping Road is the area's main road, and real-estate listings say rush-hour jams are noticeable and the streetscape is a patchwork of old and new.
In our street photos, greenery ranks 86th, buildings 90th and pavements 64th, all in the lower half.
A 2011 news report said the junior high school matched to Xiushan Elementary School's catchment, Zhonghe Junior High School, is a long way off, so some pupils moved their household registration to attend Fuhe or Yonghe Junior High School instead.
When Xiulang Bridge was completed in 1951, it was 133 metres long and only 3.6 metres wide. In 1969 it was rebuilt as a prestressed concrete girder bridge, and in 1987 it was rebuilt and widened, reopening on 10 October at 30 metres wide and 533 metres long.
In 1977 Xiushan Elementary School was founded on Liren Street. When the Circular Line opened in 2020, Xiulang Bridge Station took its name from the bridge.
Above Exits 1 and 2 of Xiulang Bridge Station is a 20-storey building built over the station by Kindom Development, which was topped out in February 2024. The first and second floors are planned to hold 10 shop units and a 334-ping (about 1,100 square metres) retail space for everyday shops, and floors 4 to 20 will be offices.

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.
