Beitun District (Chinese: 北屯區; pinyin: Běitún Qū; Wade–Giles: Pei3-t'un2 Ch'ü1; lit: northern camp) is a district in Taichung, Taiwan. Located in the northern part of the city, it is a half mountainous, half urban area. Though Beitun District used to be considered part of the countryside, the new Taiyuan Station has urbanized it considerably. The highest point of Taichung City is located in Beitun, Douliu Hill (859 m).
