Taichung’s 7th Redevelopment Zone (Chinese: 臺中市第七期市地重劃區)^[1] is located in Xitun District and Nantun District,^[2] known to many local residents by its abbreviated Mandarin name "Qiqi" (七期).

This area is adjacent to the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Redevelopment Zone. Before Taichung's 7th Redevelopment Zone Plan, only a few farmhouses were scattered along a limited number of narrow streets.^[3] Today, this area is the site of Taichung's new city government center, and it is the central business district (CBD) of Taichung City.^[4] It features broad and widely spaced boulevards, attractive apartments, department stores, and office towers, which are brightly lit at night. There are many universities nearby, such as Tunghai University and Feng Chia University.^[5]
