Taipei Travel

I definitely reccomend a visit to Xi Men Ding! Fun area, lots of shops, arcades, food stands etc. Its a great area to buy local snacks, drink some bubble tea, and walk around! Its better to go at night, but still alright if you go during the day!

Visited this place a few times and at different time of the day. The crowd was different in the day time and night time. It is very much alive after 7 pm and was pretty crowded on Saturday night. Best recommended for youngsters.

No reason not to go unless you've been here tons of times. I stayed in the area so I was there everyday. Easy to find good food with a breakfast street that sells traditional taiwanese breakfast.

Ximending has the vibe of Myeongdong in Seoul and Nihonbashi and Dotombori in Osaka - same pedestrian street set-up, a lot of stores, food stalls at night! It is nice to just roam around the streets as they come alive after 6PM, complete with bands doing some shows right outside the Ximen train station exit. We had fun lining up for fried chicken pops, buying milk tea and browsing the many shops in the area. When your feet give up, so can rest in the many benches scattered all around as you enjoy people-watching.

Fun place to check pug the local youth culture. Have some fast food and do a bit of shopping. Few bars around this area also
