Historical Trace: Ximen and Bangka
By Liu,Wei-ting/TIER
The development of Ximending can be traced back to Japanese rule when it was planned as a special entertainment area. At Ximending you will find little Hong Kong, Tattoo Street, Film Street, Sichuan Cuisine Street, America Street, and Mingtaizi Street. Ximending has undergone enormous historical development and now leads the new generation of fashion culture. The Huaxi Night Market is on “Bangka” which was once Taipei’s first street and was the country’s very first night market. There is a strong connection to all international trends, and rich cultural features are preserved by combining the underground street of the Longshan Temple and Dali Street for Accessories. In addition to its historical atmosphere many interesting and fun events are often organized to attract public attention.
