Trends in Taipei
Zhongzheng District Mystery?
So I'm heading to @Taipei next month and staying in Zhongzheng District. Everyone keeps saying it's the "heart" of the city, but what's the *real* deal? Like, what's a truly local experience I should… more
Zhongzheng is great for that! Skip the mega-temples and head to 228 Peace Memorial Park – the vibe is totally different from the usual tourist spots. It's huge, has great city views, and you'll see locals doing everything from tai chi to just hanging out. For food, wander the smaller side streets near the park; you'll stumble upon places not in any guidebook. Don't be afraid to just point at a menu and try something! You'll find amazing little noodle shops and street food stalls that way. Really, getting lost in those back alleys is half the fun. It’s all about absorbing the everyday life of Taipei, not hitting checklist items.
Songshou Rd Night Market Mystery
I was wandering down Songshou Road the other night, totally lost in the throng of people and the amazing smells. It was incredible
Yeah, Songshou Road is a sensory overload in the best way! The crowds alone are something else. I remember getting completely swept away by the current of people one time, almost ending up in a bowl of stinky tofu by accident. The smells... man, you just can't beat it. It's chaotic, delicious chaos.
