Cooking Class

Under professional guidance, you will hand-craft iconic Taiwanese dishes — such as Braised Pork Rice (Lu Rou Fan), Beef Noodle Soup, or Scallion Pancakes. The best part? Sitting down to enjoy the delicious feast you prepared yourself!

The "Ten Buildings"
(Shiliandong)

Step into the most photographed scene on Dihua Street. The Ten Buildings is a magnificent row of red-brick structures from the early 20th century. Once home to thriving textile merchants, these buildings feature a unique "hybrid" aesthetic of Baroque facades and southern Chinese red bricks. It is a stunning testament to Taipei's golden age of trade.

A Fusion of
Old & New

Explore a district where tradition and trendiness dance together. Walk past century-old herbal pharmacies and fabric wholesalers that now stand alongside chic design studios, art galleries, and hidden tea houses. In the restored courtyards, you might even find live music or a modern pop-up cafe tucked inside a 100-year-old shopfront.
