Qidu District or Cidu District[2] (Chinese: 七堵區; Hanyu Pinyin: Qīdǔ Qū; Tongyong Pinyin: Cidǔ Cyu; Wade–Giles: Ch'i1-tu3 Chü1; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Chhit-tó͘-khu) is a district of the city of Keelung, Taiwan.[3] It borders New Taipei to the west.
During the period of Japanese rule, Shichitoku village (七堵庄) included modern day Qidu and Nuannuan districts and was governed under Kīrun District (基隆郡) of Taihoku Prefecture.
In March 1988, the Keelung city government reassigned administration of several urban villages between districts. Ying-geh, Chi-sien, She-wei, San-min, Wu-fu and Liu-ho, originally part of Qidu District (Chi-du) became part of Anle District.[4]
The district administers 20 urban villages:[2][5][6]
