Daan District[1] (Chinese: 大安區; pinyin: Dà'ān Qū) is a coastal suburban district in Taichung, Taiwan, upgraded from Da-an Township. It lies between the Dajia river and the Da-an river.
In March 1842,[2] during the First Opium War, the brigAnn became shipwrecked near Daan harbour.[3] It had 57 personnel, mostly Indian seacunnies and lascars.[4] Survivors of the wreck, along with the survivors of the Nerbudda shipwreck in September 1841, were executed in Tainan in August 1842.[2]
