To celebrate the 112th National Day of the Republic of China, the Taipei City Government's Department of Civil Affairs held a press conference on the "112th National Day Flag Raising and Celebration Event" today (9/26). The event began with an energetic dance performance by the Fu Jen Catholic University cheerleading team. Taipei City Government officials, including Deputy Mayor Lin Yi-Hua, Commissioner of the Department of Civil Affairs Yung-Te Chen, and Deputy Commissioner of the Department of Information Technology Chen Hui-min, jointly revealed this year's National Day slogan: "Good morning on National Day! City Run." This marks the beginning of a new chapter in the event, inviting citizens to run together for their health and well-being.
This year, the Taipei City Government is hosting the "112th National Day Flag Raising and Celebration Event." In addition to the flag-raising ceremony, the leading of the singing of the national anthem, and various performances, citizens are invited to participate in a National Day Fun Run, promoting a vibrant and youthful image of Taipei City. Taipei City Mayor Chiang Wan-an will lead department heads and citizens in a morning jog in front of Taipei City Hall, kicking off a day full of fresh energy. The running route will loop around the Taipei City Hall area roads (Shifu Road, Songgao Road, Songzhi Road, and Songshou Road) three times. Upon presenting their race bib, participants will receive a special National Day gift, a limited edition towel.
In addition, for the first time on National Day, there will be a "National Day Good Morning Market" in collaboration with the well-known Taipei market brand "Hangout Market." After participating in the flag-raising ceremony and the health run, citizens can enjoy a variety of delicious food at the market. The event will feature 20 vendors offering breakfast, desserts, snacks, beverages, and creative merchandise, providing a rich and exciting experience. A new National Day morning market theme will be created at the market entrance for citizens to take photos and share their experiences.
