#JanuaryGoodPlaces2025 While taking a walk, I accidentally discovered this creative little shop with great texture - Ping Ping Li! Here, we use kilns with unique characteristics of various countries to burn and press wine bottles into unique works of art. Each piece is full of design sense and environmental protection concept, making people love it. There are all kinds of handmade products in the store, among which my favorites are clocks and lamps. After being processed with special technology, the wine bottles become unique home furnishings. Whether it is industrial style or retro style, they can be easily integrated into the decoration! In addition, the store also has magnets, pendants, cards, plates, ashtrays, etc., and even many souvenirs that represent Taiwan's characteristics. Whether you want to decorate your home or give them as souvenirs to foreign friends, they are very suitable. The location is super convenient, on the second floor of Workshop 16 of the Ximen Red House. If you come to Ximending for shopping, I really recommend you to come in and take a look. You will definitely find a lot of treasures, and you can even spend a whole afternoon shopping! 📍 Ping Ping Li (2nd floor, Workshop 16, Ximen Red House, Emei Street, Wanhua District, Taipei City) #Ximending #Red House of Ximen #Bottle Gift #Creative Handmade #Environmental Design #Special Souvenir

Jinzai This weekend, I came to Taipei for a single holiday flash mob, ready to explore this food capital of Taiwan. My first stop was A Zong Noodles, a famous snack in Taipei and one of my must-try delicacies. When I arrived at A Zong Noodles, I found that the place was crowded with people queuing up waiting to taste a bowl of authentic A Zong Noodles. When I got a bowl of hot noodles, I took my first bite and felt that the texture of the noodles was very unique and the soup was very delicious. It is really a must-try delicacy. The second stop was Sanma Stinky Hotpot, a snack bar that serves Taiwanese stinky hotpot. When I entered the store, I was attracted by the atmosphere and menu, and I ordered a comprehensive stinky pot. When the dish arrived, I was greeted by a strong, stinky smell, but when I tasted it, I discovered that it was actually quite delicious and perfect for this winter weather. The third stop was Carrefour Guilin store. It is a supermarket, but the fruits here are really fresh. I bought some seasonal fruits such as strawberries, apples, oranges, etc. These fruits are very sweet and very affordable. The last stop on the last day was the Ximen Red House, a famous tourist attraction and a very popular check-in destination. Here I took many photos and explored this beautiful building and the surrounding neighborhood. Here, I felt the unique charm and vitality of Taipei. There is also Haoda Fried Chicken nearby.

The Ximen Red House was built in the Japanese occupation period of 1908. The biggest feature is that each faade is 8 meters. It is called the Octagon Hall during the Japanese occupation. After the recovery, the octagonal hall belonging to the Ximen market was placed under the authority of the authorities. In 1949, Chen Huiwen, a well-known Shanghai businessman who retired to Taiwan, rented an octagonal hall and opened a storytelling performance and film broadcast on the second floor. Today's Ximen Red Building is a 16th workshop, and the second floor is a creative boutique display and exhibition. Many singers or groups will hold small shows here. The interior has exhibited the development of the red building since its birth. In 1935, it was still a sparsely populated neighborhood. Today's red building has become a place full of creativity and passion. The interior of the red building is typical loft style, simple and stylish, the lines are tough, the connection is mainly black and gray, but the main color of the shop is wood color. During walking, we can use both perceptual thinking and use. Rational thinking is the favorite literary space for young people.
