Taiwan, Taipei - Street Food
One of the reasons I enjoyed visiting Taipei is the street food that the city offers. Here in Taipei, one can easily find street food just about everywhere and anywhere. And like most street food found in many cities around the world, Taipei's street food are unique, delicious and very affordable.
In my past visits to Taipei, I had always stayed at hotels located around the Ximending area. The ease of access to the area and its connectivity to other parts of the city make Ximending an obvious choice for me. In addition, located just next to the many subway exits of the Ximending subway station are many local street food vendors. Here, the activities last way into the wee hours of the night and early morning. It is not surprising to find the area a hive of activities even in the early morning hours of 1am to 2am. And this is so even on weekdays nights. Truly, a city that don't sleeps or one that sleeps very little.
The next time you visit Taipei, why not drop by the Ximending area if you have not already visited this part of Taipei before. Immerse yourself in the hustle and bustle of the area and try out the local street food. And if you had been to Ximending before, there is certainly no harm in giving the place a repeat visit. After all, those delicious street food will always be a good reason to visit again. And I haven't even get to the sights and sounds of Ximending!
