Addressing formats
Some roads are divided into multiple sections,
for each of which sections the house numbering
starts over again. An example of how addresses in
Taiwan can sometimes include not only a road and
the specific section of the road, but also a further
branching out to a lane and an alley can be seen as follows:
“#4, Alley 14, Lane 104, 3rd Section, Xi-tun Road.”
