DiHua Street: A Must-Visit for Lunar New Year Shopping

Every Lunar New Year, Taipei's DiHua Street transforms into a bustling market filled with festive goods. This historic street is not only one of the most festive spots in Taipei but also an excellent place to find gifts. As you stroll through, the nostalgic atmosphere of red brick buildings and wooden windows greets you, and the traditional fabric shops, tea houses, and herbal medicine stores make you feel like you've traveled back in time, falling in love with its cultural charm. Although it gets extremely crowded during this time, the vendors go all out to attract customers, offering samples of everything from nuts, candied fruits, and dried goods to traditional pastries and exotic snacks. It's easy to get lost in the variety and find yourself leaving with bags full of treats and dried goods. DiHua Street's New Year market is not just a place to shop; it's a microcosm of the festive atmosphere. Whether you're carefully selecting New Year goods for your family or enjoying the shopping experience with friends, come and join the fun!
