From girls' junior high to comprehensive high school.
Dali Senior High School traces its roots to April 27, 1968, when it opened as Dali Girls' Junior High School (大理女子國民中學). It began admitting boys and was renamed Taipei Municipal Dali Junior High School in 1991, then upgraded to a senior high in 1998 — one of the first schools in Taiwan to pilot the "comprehensive high school" (綜合高中) model, combining academic study with vocational tracks in information technology and commerce. The campus sits beside the Wanhua Wholesale Market and MRT Longshan Temple Station, right at the heart of the old Bangka (Monga) settlement core. Beginning in August 2026, the school is scheduled to be reorganized under Taipei Municipal University and renamed "Taipei Municipal University-Affiliated Dali Senior High School" (臺北市立大學附屬大理高級中等學校) — a pending transition worth noting for anyone researching the school today.
大理高中的前身可追溯至民國57年（1968年）4月27日創立的「大理女子國民中學」。民國80年（1991年）起開始招收男生，並更名為「臺北市立大理國民中學」；民國87年（1998年）改制為高級中學，是台灣最早試辦「綜合高中」學制的學校之一，兼具學術與資訊、商業等職業類科。校址緊鄰艋舺果菜批發市場與捷運龍山寺站，位處艋舺舊聚落核心地帶。自2026年8月起，本校預計整併為臺北市立大學附屬學校，更名為「臺北市立大學附屬大理高級中等學校」，是目前查詢本校資訊時值得留意的重要異動。

🥬 Steps from the Wholesale Market
緊鄰果菜批發市場
The campus sits directly beside the Wanhua Wholesale Market and MRT Longshan Temple Station, at the doorstep of one of Taipei's oldest and busiest commercial districts.
At the doorstep of old Bangka.
Dali Senior High School sits at the heart of Bangka (艋舺), also known as Monga, Taipei's oldest settled quarter. A short walk away stands Longshan Temple (龍山寺), the district's spiritual anchor since the 18th century, alongside Herb Lane (青草巷), a narrow alley of traditional herbal medicine shops that has served the neighborhood for generations. The school's location beside the historic wholesale market reflects Bangka's long identity as a trading hub, born from the same riverside commerce that built the temple and its surrounding streets.
