Dali River

The 883rd longest river in the world

km

The Dali River (pinyin: Dàlǐxī) is a river located in Taichung, Taiwan, flowing from the west of the city in a southwest direction before emptying into the Dadu River. Since the river is prone to flooding after heavy rain, the course of the river has been significantly altered. Currently, the Dali River begins in Dakeng, Beitun District at the end of the Dakeng River, and merges into the Buzi River at Buzi, Beitun District. The Buzi River then turns back into the Dali River in Taiping District near Xinfeng Bridge, passing through Dali, Wufeng, and Wuri before emptying into the Dadu River at Taichung's border with Changhua.

Flows through: Taiwan.
