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:
“It is from quiet places like this all over the world that the forces accumulate which presently will overbear any attempt to accomplish evil on a large scale. Like the rivulets gathering into the river, and the river into the seas, there come from communities like this streams that fertilize the consciences of men, and it is the conscience of the world that we are trying to place upon the throne which others would usurp.”
—Woodrow Wilson (1856–1924)
