Ximen is like no other, I would describe it as the Shinjuku of Tokyo. I know that's a bad comparison but hey, it passes the vibe check! It was predominantly an LGBT hub but now has become one of Taipei's famous tourist spots, it's nice to go out with friends and get some boba there!

This district is filled with entertainment like gacha stores, shopping with many local fashion stores, and delicious street food authentic to Taiwan. And let's not forget about the famous Red House, which hosts cultural performances and houses unique retail stores.

Some food I recommend you to get:

• Ay-Chung Flour-Rice Noodle 阿宗麵線 (The famous rice noodles)

• Xing Fu Tang Flagship 幸福堂西門町全球旗艦店 (This boba had every tourists line up)

• Xing Fu Tang Flagship 幸福堂西門町全球旗艦店 (Amazing Taiwanese local cuisine)

Have fun, you will enjoy it here :)
