[2025 Taipei Shopping Mall] Travel Guide for Wan Nian Building (Updated Mar)

#1月好去地方2025 The Wannian Commercial Building in the Ximending Triangle Window area is a green classic building. Every time you pass by here, it always reminds you of the shopping time in high school. This place carries the youthful memories of many people. There are many shops inside the building that specialize in selling dolls, models, anime peripherals, capsule toys, etc. For collectors, this is definitely a treasure trove. Although I am not very interested in dolls, every time I come to Ximending, I will habitually go in and take a look to experience the strong subculture atmosphere. There are different surprises on each floor, whether it is trendy toys, classic anime characters, or retro video game consoles, people can't help but take a look 📍Wannian Commercial Building｜Xining South Road, Wanhua District, Taipei City #Ximending #Wannian Building #Doll Collection #Taipei Animation #Trendy Toy Base #Classic in Memories

The outer skin is as soft as a soufflé. The brown sugar milk contains pearls containing QQ. You can only taste the pearls if you eat it freshly. In addition, the taste of Oreo is also very good. Rich, the store also launches limited flavors from time to time, allowing customers to try new flavors. I have tried cocoa and cream before, and they are very delicious😋This is a high-quality dessert that you cannot miss when you come here. #Taipeifood #Taipei #西门 # Dessert Control

Wan Nian Commercial Building, a historic and well-known shopping mall in Ximending, exudes a nostalgic charm as you step inside. The early business model of Wan Nian is gradually fading, replaced by the booming trend of Japanese anime merchandise, including figurines and capsule toys 🤩. For years, the models commonly seen here were from classic series like Dragon Ball, One Piece, Naruto, and Gundam. While these classics remain popular, they have somewhat lagged behind the latest trends in Japanese pop culture. Notably, in the past six months, the mall has started featuring hot new anime series such as Demon Slayer, Jujutsu Kaisen, Haikyuu!!, Spy x Family, and Chainsaw Man 🔥. It's delightful to see Wan Nian merchants keeping up with Japanese trends, bridging the gap between old and new era works, attracting a steady stream of fans, and making Wan Nian an increasingly enjoyable place to visit 😍.
