Taiwan Travel Vlog 🇹🇼 Taipei Shopping 台北购物, Hidden Gems in Chifeng Street 赤峰街 (Taiwan 2023)

On this week’s Taiwan Travel Vlog, we explore one of the best places to go shopping in Taipei (台北购物). We take a break from popular shopping districts like Ximending to visit the lesser-known backstreets and alleyways of Chifeng (赤峰街), where some of the most hip and creative local businesses, cafes and vintage shops can be found in Taiwan. Bustling with youthful energy (especially on the weekends), you never know what one-of-a-kind treasures and Taiwanese souvenirs you might find.
Aside from visiting some of the best vintage shops in Taiwan, we also explore a weekend night market and make sure to grab some delicious Taiwanese street food.

    I had to click like on first bite! Gotta do the sticky rice buns, rice porridge, soy milk and crullers for Taiwanese breakfast! Onigiri is alright haha! I didn't know about all the thrift stores/vintage stores. That's so awesome. I will have to check that out on my next visit! Thanks for opening my eyes to a place where I visited tons of times as a kid!

    The Xinyi and Daan districts are both centrally located and close to night markets and other tourist attractions, so there's always something to do. 😊
