Photography Enthusiasts Must Visit! A Hidden Gem Bookstore on Taipei's Zhongxiao East Road

Today, we’re sharing an amazing bookstore for photography lovers—Moom Bookshop. Located at No. 16, Lane 8, Alley 251, Section 3, Zhongxiao East Road, Da’an District, Taipei City, it closes at 8 PM, so make sure to plan your visit accordingly to avoid disappointment! This independent bookstore specializes in photography books and is truly a paradise for photographers. It houses a vast collection of photography materials and rare photography books from around the world. The selection is incredibly curated, and you can even find works by local Taiwanese photographers. Each book is so captivating that you won’t want to put it down. Besides photography books, the store also offers a variety of art books and magazines. Most of the books are unsealed, allowing you to flip through them freely—this immersive "cloud exhibition" experience is truly a rare treat! Occasionally, the bookstore hosts exhibitions, creating an atmosphere that’s simply unmatched. Nestled in a residential area on Zhongxiao East Road, its white exterior walls make it easy to spot. Currently, the store is celebrating the 75th anniversary of a British art publisher, offering an 85% discount on all books until October 13. Even for books not on sale, the prices are often cheaper than on Taobao, making it a great value! Back in 2018, before it even had a physical store, Moom Bookshop was already gaining popularity. If you’re visiting Taipei, don’t miss out on this gem. Spend a few hours browsing, pick out some favorite photography books, and you’re guaranteed to leave with a treasure trove of inspiration. Don’t hesitate—just go for it!
