Jiali District (Chinese: 佳里區; pinyin: Jiālǐ Qū; Wade–Giles: Chia1-li3 Ch'ü1; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: Ka-lí) is a district located in northern Tainan, Taiwan, about 15 km north of the former Dutch base of Fort Zeelandia.

In the 17th century, the place was named Soulang after one of the four subtribes of the local Siraya aborigines.

Soulang was a village of about 1,500 inhabitants about 15 kilometres (9.3 mi) north of Fort Zeelandia,[1] and became a station of the Dutch East India Company.

[3] After the handover of Taiwan from Japan to the Republic of China in 1945, Jiali was organized as an urban township of Tainan County.

The district consists of Tungning, Zhongren, Zhenshan, Jiannan, Anxi, Liuan, Jiahua, Haideng, Minan, Zilong, Yingxi, Wenxin, Jiaxing, Xiaying, Wennei and Nanshi Village.
