Shalu District
Shalu District (Chinese: 沙鹿區; pinyin: Shālù Qū; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Sa-lak-khu; lit: Sand Deer) is a suburban district in central Taichung City, Taiwan.
Originally a settlement of the Papora people, this region was named Chinese: 沙轆社; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Sa-lak-siā. During the Kingdom of Tungning (1662－1683), the Taiwanese Plains Aborigines were driven away or sinicized, and the area became a Han settlement. In 1731 during Qing rule, Tamsui Subprefecture (Chinese: 淡水廳; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Tām-chúi-thiaⁿ) extended from the Tai-kah River northward up to Kelang (Chinese: 雞籠; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ke-lang; Keelung).
In 1920, during Japanese rule, the written name was changed to Sharoku (沙鹿). Administratively, Sharoku was under Taikō District (大甲郡), Taichū Prefecture. In Taiwanese Hokkien, the old name (Soa-la̍k) is still used.
In 1945 the village was changed to a township, and was upgraded to a district in 2010.
