Ximen Red House, Taipei's most charming cultural landmark

#西门红楼 This century-old red brick building is definitely one of the most representative landmarks in Ximending. The history of the Red House can be traced back to 1908, when it was a public market during the Japanese colonial period. Its unique octagonal building design is not only a rare architectural style in Taiwan, but also has become the most representative symbol of the Red House. Walking into the Red Building, the nostalgic red brick walls and wooden windows make you feel like traveling through time, while the interior is full of modernity - from the cultural and creative product store to the exhibition space, every corner exudes an artistic atmosphere. Studio 16 inside the Red House is a dream base for many independent design brands, selling a variety of original Taiwanese products, from handmade leather and wooden accessories to illustrated postcards. Each piece is full of warmth and stories. The Red Building Theater holds dramas, music performances and art exhibitions from time to time, injecting new life into this century-old building. Whether you come here to appreciate cultural and creative design, participate in art exhibitions, or simply sit in a cafe to appreciate the beauty of old buildings, it is very suitable to come here for a stroll #Valentine's Day Good Place 2025 #Ximending #Ximen Red House
