#solotrip I finally took a solo trip to Taiwan, and one of my highlights was visiting Pop Mart. If you’re a fan of designer toys, collectibles, or just cute and unique art, you’ll love this place as much as I did. Pop Mart feels like stepping into a magical world. The bright lights, colorful displays, and carefully curated figures are all so eye-catching. I spent so much time just walking around, admiring the beautiful setups – it felt like a mini art exhibition. One thing I loved was the way each display was decorated with such detail. They had everything from blind box exclusives to mega-sized figurines. I even got to see some of my favorite characters up close, like Molly and Panda. The whole experience felt so immersive, almost like a dream for any collector. If you’re planning a solo trip to Taiwan, visiting Pop Mart is a must – whether you’re a fan of toys or just want to see something different and fun. You’ll leave with a smile (and maybe a cute little blind box figure to bring home!).

#solotrip During my solo trip to Taiwan, I visited Pop Mart – a paradise for designer toys and art lovers! The shop felt like stepping into a magical world of collectibles, bright displays, and beautifully arranged figures. From the start, the decor caught my attention – warm lighting, cute character walls, and colorful shelves filled with mystery boxes and figurines. Popular characters like Molly, Dimoo, and Skullpanda were everywhere, each with unique designs and themes. The astronaut display wall was my personal favorite! What I loved most was the variety – rows of mystery boxes, keychains, and creative stationery to bring home as souvenirs. I even spotted limited-edition toys on display that made the visit extra exciting. If you’re a fan of collectible toys or just want something unique to bring back, Pop Mart is a must-visit spot in Taiwan. It’s worth the experience!

Inside, the store was even better – shelves and displays full of adorable collectibles. Every corner had something fun to explore, from tiny figures to themed decorations. I also loved how the store design made the whole experience feel magical. There were huge statues of the figurines and creative setups everywhere. I spent hours just looking around and picking out my favorite blind boxes to bring home. The joy of opening them to see what you get is unbeatable!

There are a lot of Xiaolongbao restaurants in the Taipei Ximen Station area, but it seems like they are often hit or miss, so it's scary💦 For those of you who are like that, I recommend this restaurant! ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ 📍 Tangbao Lac 🏷️ No. 137, Kunming St, Wanhua District, Taipei City, Taiwan 108 🕑11:30 - 20:30 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ We had Xiaolongbao and mysterious noodles🍜 lol The mysterious noodles were super delicious... I think they were probably something like wonton noodles, but Was it a dry wonton noodle? It was probably the most delicious thing I had on this trip to Taiwan😂 The staff were really kind, and when they realized we were Japanese, they prepared a menu in Japanese and explained it to us in English🥰 For those of you who don't know which restaurant to go to! Just try it out and see for yourself🫶 ＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿ #0yentravelautumn#Taiwan #Taiwantrip #Taiwanfood #Taiwantourism #Taipei

#Overseas travel 1. Samhyeongmae Mango Bingsu Address: No. 23, Hanzhong St, Wanhua District, Taipei City, Taiwan 108 Key point: Mango Bingsu restaurant Rating: 4.0 The bingsu we chose was the Snow Flower Mango Bingsu! I heard that people usually eat milk-based bingsu, but we just chose the Snow Flower Mango Bingsu. They said it was for 2~3 people, so we ordered one for the three of us, and it was enough. Maybe because it was breakfast, we had some leftovers. And the price was 180, which is about 7,000~8,000 won in Korean prices! 2. Haengbokdang Address: No. 168, Xintian Road, Xinxing Kaohsiung Taiwan Key point: Bubble tea restaurant Rating: 4.0 We went to Haengbokdang to have bubble tea. What I ate was the basic black sugar bubble tea! I was thinking about getting the rose black sugar, but I was afraid that I would fail, so I ordered the regular black sugar bubble tea that I always buy in Korea. I think I waited for about 20 minutes because there were a lot of people!

#timetotravel Shi-Men Ting (also known as Ximending) is the hippy district in Taipei where all the youngsters gather. As can be seen in the rainbow street 🌈, it no doubt is Taipei’s largest LGBT district. You can also find one of the oldest architecture, Red House (红楼). The streets are filled with countless of clothing shops, photobooths, claw machines, restaurants, and most certainly street food. On paper, Shi-Men Ting is a daytime + nighttime pedestrian shopping district in Taipei. However, most shops are not open until noon, so I would recommend visiting at night. But do note Shi-Men Ting can get really crowded with visitors at night. List of restaurants I tried: - “An Zong Mee Sua” for noodles - “Tian Tian Li” for oyster pancake (however I got sick eating this so would not recommend) - “王福芋圓” for taro ball dessert - “Ya Rou Bian 鸭肉扁” for 1/4 duck and duck noodles #境外遊 #taipei #taiwan #food #streetfood

Hotpot is a must-eat in Taiwan.I came to Ga Guo Ximending branch with my friends. The dining environment is quite good. There are many flavors of soup bases here. I chose the classic stone hotpot with seafood combination. For vegetables, you can eat as much as you want at the self-service bar. Drinks, ice cream and rice are also all you can eat. Overall, it is quite cost-effective, and the vegetables are very fresh🥬, butyou must make a reservation in advance, otherwise there will be a lot of peopleand you will need to queue for a long time during dining time😌 #Taiwan Local Tour
