The Former British Merchant Warehouse (Шаблон:Zh) is a historical warehouse in Tamsui District, New Taipei, Taiwan.

History

The area used to be a warehouse to store tea-related products by the British tea merchants. It was then later bought by Shell Oil Company and expanded into four large warehouse and oil tanks. After the bombing by United States in 1944, the warehouse burned for three days and was half destroyed. It was eventually retired as a backup storage since and donated by Shell.

To preserve the historical meaning of the building, the warehouse was repaired. After restoration and remodeling of the area, the Tamsui Cultural Park (Шаблон:Zh) was established.[1]

Transportation

The area is accessible within walking distance south of Tamsui Station of Taipei Metro.[2]
