I have always ben curious about the meanings of street names in Taipei.
This is what i have so far
Chung Shau(as in the road that SOGO is on) means loyalty to your family
Ren Ai means humanity
Gwang Fu means Overthrow or win back(as when Taiwan was given back to the ROC)
Hsin Yi means Belief in one’s self
Ho Ping means Peace
Min Chuan means Justice
Ming Sheng means birth of a nation
San Ming means the three principles
Ming Tzu means culture
Fu Shing means Renaissance
Chung Shau
Ren Ai
Hsin Yi
I think these three are the 3 principles of the people
Somebody also mentioned to me before that there was some logic behind the design of the streets in Taipei. Like Minchuan, Min Tzu, Min Sheng are all in beside eachother as are the others below Chung Shau. Chung Shau and Chung Shan breaks it into 4 quadrants and there are four roads running parallel withing these quandrants
Anybody got anymore to add about the design or name meaning, I would be interested to know
