Zhonghe District (Chinese: 中和區; Hanyu Pinyin: Zhōnghé Qū; Tongyong Pinyin: Jhonghé Cyu, Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Tiong-hô Khu), also spelled Chūwa[citation needed] and Jhonghe, is an inner city district in New Taipei City in northern Taiwan (ROC).
Zhonghe was founded in 1946 as an urban township in what then known as Taipei County in Taiwan Province, until it gained county-administered city status in 1979 and again as a district of New Taipei in 2010.
