Anping District is a district of Tainan, Taiwan. In March 2012, it was named one of the Top 10 Small Tourist Towns by the Tourism Bureau of Taiwan. It is home to 64,408 people according to the 2020 census.[2][3]
Name
The older place name of Tayouan derives from the ethnonym of a nearby Taiwanese aboriginal tribe, and was written by the Dutch and Portuguese variously as Taiouwang, Tayowan, etc.[4] In his translations of Dutch records, missionary William Campbell used the variant Tayouan and wrote that Taoan and Taiwan also occur.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. As Dutch spelling varied greatly at the time (see: History of Dutch orthography), other variants may be seen.[5] The name was also transliterated into Chinese characters variously as Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang"., Script error: No such module "Lang". and Script error: No such module "Lang"..[4]
After the Dutch were ousted c. 1661 by Koxinga, Han immigrants renamed the area "Anping" after the Anping Bridge in Quanzhou, Fujian. Soon after Qing rule was established in 1683, the name "Taiwan" (Script error: No such module "Lang".) was officially used to refer to the whole island with the establishment of Taiwan Prefecture.
History
The history of Anping dates back to the 17th century, when the Dutch East India Company occupied a "high sandy down" called Tayouan and built Fort Zeelandia.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. The Dutch moved their headquarters to Tayouan after leaving the Pescadores in 1624.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found. Due to silting, the islet has joined with mainland Taiwan.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.
Koxinga's army brought an end to the Dutch colonial period via the Siege of Fort Zeelandia.
In the Japanese period, the history of trade between China and Japan unfolded at Anping. According to the 1904 census, the city's population was 5,972.Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Footnotes/anchor_id_list' not found.

The true derivation of the name "Taiwan" is actually from the ethnonym of a tribe in the southwest part of the island in the area around Ping'an. As early as 1636, a Dutch missionary referred to this group as Taiouwang. From the name of the tribe, the Portuguese called the area around Ping'an as Tayowan, Taiyowan, Tyovon, Teijoan, Toyouan, and so forth. Indeed, already in his ship's log of 1622, the Dutchman Cornelis Reijersen referred to the area as Teijoan and Taiyowan.
