XIMENDING

There are two faces to Ximending - it's modernity and tradition. Apart from being the king of consumerism city, Ximending also offers historical sights and attractions to tourists. For example, the Ximending Mazu Temple features a significant historical place of worship for Taiwan. Interestingly, the Mazu Temple is sandwiched between two modern store fronts and tourists may by pass this traditional monument in a cliched modern Ximending if the surrounding area isn't litted well enough at night. The Red House Theater, which was formerly Taiwan's public market is another influential building and architechture during the Japanese era which is now an iconic and must-see landmark hosting plenty of performances from Jazz to Taiwanese Opera. Since Ximending is most lively at night, you can spend some time during the day learning more about Taipei City at the Presidential Office Building which is open for viewing from 11.30am onwards... Ximending remains as one of the busiest city in the..
