臺中東勢地名取自「東隅之聚落」之意，因早期軍工採伐木料，在此建有工寮，故又稱為匠寮或寮腳。這裡是客語推廣重鎮之一，不但客語人口比例最高，還是大埔腔使用最集中的地區，而地理位置良好、物產豐饒也是溫帶水果的知名產區。
The name of Dongshi District of Taichung was taken from “The Settlement in the east corner.” In the early days, the military industry harvested woods and built laborers lodging here, so it was also called “The Settlement of Craftsmen.” With the highest density of Hakka population, Dongshi is also the place with the highest usage rate of the Dabu dialect. Furthermore, it is the well-known producing area of temperate fruits.

必嚐在地美食
Don’t Miss the Local Food
早期食物不易保存，客家人大多又以務農為主，因此他們將收成的蔬菜日曬後，加入鹽、豆麴等具天然防腐的材料，成為現在常見的醃製品，有芥菜、蘿蔔、豆腐等。又因東勢早年住著大量移入的外省人，在飲食方面就有北方麵食及牛肉料理融入其中，也發展成現今東勢在地的飲食特色。
In the early days, most of the Hakka people were mainly engaged in farming. At that time, food was not easy to be preserved so they added salt, soy koji, and other natural ingredients those can prevent food from spoiling after they dried vegetables. Those are the common pickled products nowadays. Also, there were a large number of provincials living in Dongshi, and they made the local food include northern noodles and beef recipes.
