★Dalongdong /Baoan Temple & Taipei Confucius Temple | |
Hop on a city YouBike and travel from Dadaocheng to Dalongdong. Enjoy historic Baoan Temple’s beautiful religious carvings, the Taipei Confucius Temple’s 4D Theater, and local flavors such as charcoal roasted pork, oily rice, minced pork congee with mushrooms, and oilcake with soy milk along the way! | |
★Dadaocheng/ Dihua St | |
Dihua Street is one of Taipei's best-known historical areas. Many heritage buildings in the area have been renovated and reopened as cultural-creative shops, cafes, and quaint restaurants. While here, don't miss Yongle Fabric Market and Dihua Street's many traditional dry-goods merchants. | |
★Dadaocheng/Taipei Xiahai City God Temple | |
Don’t let the unassuming appearance of Dihua Street’s Xiahai City God Temple fool you. Believers from near and far have found Yue Lao, the temple deity, to have an uncanny knack for bringing lovers together. Pray for your special match and let Yue Lao help make your dreams of wedded bliss come true. | |
★Wanhua/ Longshan Temple | |
Enjoy the old Bopiliao Historic Block market street, internationally famous Longshan Temple, the historic Moungar Secondhand Bookshop, the “8-treasures” and fresh mango shaved-ice treats at Long Du, and the delightful traditional aromas of Herb Alley. | |
★Ximen/ Ximending | |
Ximending, one of Taipei’s oldest districts, seems to have the elixir of youth. This vibrant center of modern Taipei youth culture is home to historic eateries such as Lao Tien Lu Marinated Snacks, Fong Da Café, Mei Kuan Yuan, and Ay-Chung Rice Flour Noodle Shop as well as vermicelli and international flavors. |
