Bo'ai Special Zone

The Bo'ai Special Zone is a restricted zone in Zhongzheng District, Taipei, Taiwan, for the protection of the Presidential Office Building. It is in the historic center of Taipei and includes other government office buildings and historic sites.

Introduction

The Bo'ai special zone is located in the historic center of Taipei. Taipei has been the capital of Taiwan since the late-19th century. The Japanese constructed the modern government buildings starting in the 1910s; the Governor-General of Taiwan's office came first, followed by surrounding government buildings. The cluster became the center of the Government-General of Taiwan. The Republic of China relocated to Taiwan in late-1949 and the government moved into the Government-General buildings. The President of the Republic took over the Governor-General building as the Presidential Office Building.
The zone was claimed jointly by the Ministry of National Defense and Ministry of the Interior according to the National Security Act to protect the head of state and commander-in-chief. The zone covers of the surrounding area of the Presidential Office Building within distance between 200 and 500 meters. Buildings built within this area are subject to height limit of 24 meters, with some extra requirements of window sizes. The area is also designed as a prohibited airspace.
