Fort San Domingo Introduction
The "Tamsui Red Castle" is named for its colonial-style red brick architecture. It was built in 1895 and completed in 1899, undergoing several renovations over the years, including a transition from the Red Castle to the Yellow Castle. However, after renovations by its owners post-2000, it returned to its red appearance and transformed into the Red Castle Restaurant. Although it is not officially designated as a historic site by the government, the history of its construction and renovations symbolizes the prosperity of golden Tamsui and testifies to the development of Tamsui over the past century.
