Do you like history and visiting old places? If so, go to Dadaocheng. Once one of the largest and busiest cities in Taiwan, it's now part of Taipei. Dadaocheng is right next to the river, so it was easy for boats to come and go. People brought tea, rice, cloth and more to sell there. As Taipei grew, many businesses moved to other places. But Dadaocheng stayed a busy place.
Dihua Street is the oldest street in Dadaocheng. On Dihua Street, you will find about ten shops selling all kinds of things. Many of these stores are over 100 years old! As you walk up and down the street, you will feel like you are enjoying life in the past. Some old buildings have new businesses. You'll find bookstores, restaurants and art galleries. Visiting Dadaocheng and Dihua Street is wonderful.
