Dihua Street
Century-old Dadaocheng street of dried goods, tea, herbs and fabrics. Baroque facades + Xia-Hai Temple matchmaking; finish with the Dadaocheng sunset.
Why walkers love it
Shops since 1851, the "Middle Street" of the Qing era, a dry-goods and tea wholesale hub under Japanese rule—Taipei’s most intact old street. Minnan shophouses + Taisho Baroque facades; reading the signboards is a business-history lesson.
What to buy (3 wholesale trades)
- Dried goods & New Year foods: mullet roe, dried fruit, mushrooms, dried shrimp. Peak before Lunar New Year.
- Tea & herbs: old tea houses brew before you buy; good tea from ~NT$600/150g.
- Fabrics & creative goods: Yongle Fabric Market + renovated cafes for MIT souvenirs in one go.
Temple + sunset on one line
- Xia-Hai City God Temple: 100+ years, famous for matchmaking.
- Dadaocheng Wharf: riverside sunset + container market—Taipei’s most romantic finisher.
- Pair with Ningxia Night Market the same evening.
Access & time needed
- ~10 min walk from MRT Daqiaotou or Shuanglian. Stay 2–3 hrs + 1 hr sunset.
Tips
- Wholesale street means little bargaining; taste first, buy what you love.
- Old houses have no elevators; watch the arcade steps with strollers.
