Wenshan District (Chinese: 文山區, Wade-Giles: Wen-shan, Tongyong Pinyin: Wunshan) is one of the twelve districts of Taipei City. The district was formed in 1990 by combining Jingmei and Muzha. Wenshan referred to the region south of Taipei Basin (including Sindian and Pinglin) in the past. Notable attractions in this district include the Taipei Zoo, Maokong (貓空), Jingmei Night Market, Xianji Rock (仙跡岩). The Examination Yuan and the National Chengchi University are also in the district.
