Source-derived summary

The Guang Hua Digital Plaza (Chinese: 光華數位新天地 or 光華商場) is a six-story, indoor technological and electronics market located in Taipei, Taiwan. It is located at the intersection of Xinsheng North Road (新生北路) and Civic Boulevard (市民大道), at the border between Zhongzheng and Da'an districts.

The building consists of six stories above ground and one story below ground. The first story above ground is an exhibition space for electronic products. The second and third stories are the new locations for the 196 vendors of the original Guang Hua Market. The fourth and fifth stories are the new locations for the vendors of Xining Guozhai Electronics Market. The sixth floor is reserved for repair shops, education classes, and offices. The basement floor is parking. The market attracts tens of thousands of visitors each day.

It is accessible from the Guanghua Bazaar bus stop and the MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station.

Editorial summary

Begin with the source’s own compact description: “Guang Hua Digital Plaza” is shopping mall in Taipei. The dossier treats that line as a proposition to test through Guang, Digital and Plaza, not as a finished interpretation.

Editorial reviewA concise reference frame for defining the subject, testing terminology and identifying the institution closest to the evidence. The current 147-word lead offers orientation but no explicit four-digit date, so chronology should not be assumed. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1973. For this dossier, Guang, Digital and Plaza is the immediate research focus.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The phrase “shopping mall in Taipei” supplies a clear boundary for inquiry. It also exposes the unanswered questions: who defined that boundary, when it became stable and which sources sit outside it.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated May 17, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q697187. Authority coordinates are 25.045, 121.532. 1 of 4 selected statements include explicit references; 2 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
