Taipei, June 15 (CNA) Eight specially designed manhole covers that reflect features of four districts in Taipei were put on display Monday for a four-day exhibition at the Taipei City Hall.

The exhibition, which runs from June 15-18, presents two manhole covers each for the city districts of Nangang, Zhongzheng, Wanhua and Datong.

The covers will be placed on sidewalks at tourist attractions in the four districts by the end of the year, aimed at changing people's impressions of manhole covers as "black and dirty," the city government said in a statement.

Designs for other districts in the city will be developed in the future, the statement went on.
