The New Taipei City Hall (Chinese: 新北市政府行政大樓; pinyin: Xīnběi Shì Zhèngfǔ Xíngzhèng Dàlóu) is the venue of the government of New Taipei City of the Republic of China (Taiwan). The hall is located in Banqiao District.[2]
The building was constructed in 2002 as Taipei County Hall (Chinese: 台北縣政府大樓). However, after Taipei County was upgraded to city-status, the building was renamed as New Taipei City Hall (Chinese: 新北市政府大樓).
The building is a 33-floor structure with a height of 140.5 meters.[3]
There is a free observation floor for viewing on level 32[2] and a viewing restaurant on level 33.
The building is accessible within walking distance southeast from Banqiao Station of the Taipei Metro, Taiwan High Speed Rail and Taiwan Railways Administration.[4][5][6]
