Wanli District<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> (Template:Zh), known in Basay as Masu, is a rural district on the rocky seacoast in northeastern New Taipei City in northern Taiwan. Wanli is a popular tourist destination and the site of the Cape Yehliu Miocene Formation which features distinctive hoodoo outcrops. The "Queen's Head" outcrop is a Taiwanese icon and serves as an informal trademark for the township. Kataw in the adjacent Jinshan District features the Wanli Taiwanese hot springs area, which is connected with the Jinshan Hot Springs (金山溫泉).
History
The village of Masu (瑪鋉) was inhabited by Taiwanese aborigines before the era of European colonization. The area first came under the control of the Spanish, who were then ousted by the Dutch. The area began to develop when Hoklo people came to set up fishing operations.
The Ming dynasty loyalist Koxinga landed his troops at Wanli in 1661 to expel the Dutch from their northern strongholds while their principal fortress in Tainan was under siege.<ref name="history">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
In 1683, following the Qing dynasty conquest of Taiwan, the area was incorporated into Zhuluo County.<ref name="history"/> In 1875, it was a member of Kimpauli (金包里堡), Kelung Sub-Subprefecture (基隆支廳).
In 1891, during Qing dynasty rule, the village was destroyed by military force as punishment for engaging in raids against Chinese camphor men and soldiers near Tokoham (modern-day Daxi).<ref>Template:Cite book </ref>
When the Japanese took control of the island in 1895, Wanli (called Banri by the Japanese) became part of Kīrun Subprefecture, Taihoku Ken. In 1901, a reorganisation split Taihoku Ken up into smaller prefectures, with Banri becoming part of Kinpori (Kimpauli) Subprefecture, Template:Nihongo.<ref name="history"/> In 1909, Kīrun Prefecture was amalgamated into the larger Template:Nihongo. This situation remained in place until the Republic of China took over administration of Taiwan at the end of World War II: Taihoku Prefecture became Taipei County, and Banri Village became Wanli Township.<ref name="history"/>
Geography
Wanli is bordered to the northwest by Jinshan District, New Taipei, to the northeast by the Pacific Ocean, to the east by the Anle and Qidu Districts of Keelung. To the south is a short border with Xizhi District of New Taipei City, and to the southwest is Taipei City's Shilin District. The topography of the area is marked by the rocky Pacific coastline and the forested, mountainous interior.
Administration
Since December 25, 2010, Wanli has been administered as a district of New Taipei City. Prior to this date, Wanli was a township under Taipei County. Wanli is further subdivided into ten villages: Wanli (Template:Linktext), Beiji (Template:Linktext), Guihou (Template:Linktext), Yehliu (Template:Linktext), Dapeng (Template:Linktext), Huangtan (Template:Linktext), Shuangxing (Template:Linktext), Xidi (Template:Linktext), Kanjiao (Template:Linktext), and Zhongfu (Template:Linktext).<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref><ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> Prior to the 2010 reorganization, Wanli elected its own mayor, but now as a district of New Taipei City the District Chief is appointed by the mayor of New Taipei City.
Economy
The crabbing industry is important, and in 2012 the government established the Wanli Crab brand name to boost sales.<ref name="Taiwan Panorama Magazine">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>
