2025 Ximending Commercial Area Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in January)

#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 Last week, I went on my first solo trip to Taiwan, and one of my favorite stops was Pop Mart. As someone who loves cute figurines and blind box toys, this place felt like a dream come true. The moment I saw the store from the outside, I was already excited! The bright yellow windows and colorful signs made it stand out. 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! If you’re a fan of Pop Mart or just cute things in general, this place is a must-visit when you’re in Taiwan. It’s not just shopping; it’s like stepping into a world of art and fun.

When traveling to Taipei, one must-visit place is Ximending, which is similar to Myeongdong in Korea. Ximending is a popular tourist spot frequented by many Koreans, as evidenced by the Korean signs in the subway. The Ximen Night Market is also located within Ximending, making it a convenient place to visit. With a variety of food, massages, entertainment, and sights to see, Ximending is a must-visit in Taipei! Don't forget to take a photo at the Rainbow Road near Exit 6 of Ximen Station.

#getgoing2025 4F劇場咖啡 西門店 I had a lovely tea time with friends at 4F Theater Café in Ximen, Taipei. The atmosphere was so inviting with large windows that made the space feel open and airy, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. We enjoyed their matcha mille crepe and cheesecake, both of which were absolutely delicious—rich, creamy, and full of flavor. The matcha flavor in the mille crepe was especially comforting, and the cheesecake was light yet indulgent. It’s a great spot to catch up with friends while enjoying tasty treats in a cozy, bright setting. Highly recommend it! 🏖️BAmbiance/Facilities: 4F劇場咖啡 西門店 📍Address: No. 98號, Yanping S Rd, Zhongzheng District, Taipei City, Taiwan 100 💞Reasons to Recommend: Delicious cakes, hospitality ⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ ・⋆ #trip #travel #traveling #台北 #Taipei #Taiwan #foodie

Today is the last day in Taipei! It felt like I was on a mission, checking off all the important landmarks. Perhaps because I was traveling alone, I didn't spend much time taking photos, so I was super efficient... 🗺️ Itinerary Ximending Exit 6 Rainbow Taipei Photo Spot—Longshan Temple—Little Prince Boiled Melon (super close to Longshan Temple)—Dihua Street—Take Village Izakaya—Elephant Mountain—Taipei 101—Women's Bookstore ⚠️ Notes Longshan Temple has a prayer guide, so no need to worry about not knowing what to do. Besides Take Village Izakaya and Elephant Mountain being great places to take photos with Taipei 101, the spot in front of Taipei City Hall is actually better! (But I was lazy and had content to post today, so I didn't go in the evening) Overlooking the city from Taipei 101 feels similar to the view from Sky100 in Hong Kong, so I didn't spend money to go to the observation deck. Women's Bookstore is a feminist bookstore, worth a visit if you're interested 👀 💬 Thoughts I walked all the way from Ximending to Dihua Street. Since I spent most of yesterday on transportation, I missed out on many delicious small shops, so I forced myself to take fewer buses today 🚌. I spent the morning wandering the streets and the afternoon climbing a small mountain in 30-degree heat. I don't know how long it's been since I last 'tortured' myself like this, but I was drenched in sweat 🥲 🍽️ Food Experience The good thing about walking is that you can easily find small shops you want to eat and drink at 😅. Hong Rui Zhen Sandwich, Louisa Matcha Latte, 50 Lan Four Seasons Spring Tea, Little Prince Boiled Melon Braised Pork Rice, Fishbone Man Egg Cake, I basically ate everything I wanted in Taipei, and what I couldn't eat, I had to give up. I hope to find even more delicious food at the next stop 🙏

This Christmas, Ximending has introduced several adorable photo spots that immediately immerse you in the festive atmosphere! The most eye-catching feature is the 8-meter tall LABUBU Christmas tree, located behind Exit 6 of Ximen MRT Station. The giant LABUBU head in the center of the tree and the sparkling star decorations at the top make for great photos both day and night. Nearby, there are pastel rainbow-colored huts filled with LABUBU and other cute character merchandise, and the large figurines outside are also very attractive! There's even a creative Christmas tree inspired by 'Kuai Che Pork Jerky.' Ximending is still bustling with crowds on weekends, so come and take your photos while the Christmas decorations are still up 😆 Ximending No. 9, Lane 50, Hanzhong Street, Wanhua District, Taipei City

#triptravelchina New Mala Hotpot Plus is a very popular Mala hotpot restaurant among Thais in Taipei. When you enter the restaurant, you can hear only Thais. The highlight is the Mala soup, which is very spicy and numbing. If you are a Mala lover, come quickly. There are many types of meat to choose from, as well as many side dishes. Most importantly, there is a Suki sauce that Thais like! But the price is a bit high. If you want to eat, I recommend that you come up and sign up early and then go for a walk in Ximending first, because the queue is very long. But I guarantee that it is worth it. 📍Location New Mala Hotpot Plus Taipei, Taiwan 🚃 MRT Ximen Station Exit 6 #EscapeYouToJourney #VisitTaipei #TaiwanTravel

The dining experience at Muka makes people feel relaxed and comfortable from the moment they enter. The sukiyaki here is in the form of rice bowl, not a traditional pot, but it is still amazing. The rice bowl is covered with tender meat slices, soaked up with the sukiyaki sauce, with a light sweetness and rich layering. It is paired with fresh vegetables. When you take a bite, the aroma of the meat and the crispness of the vegetables complement each other. Coupled with warm white rice on the side, this simple but thoughtful combination will leave people with endless aftertaste. The specially recommended pineapple drink is also impressive. The slightly sour and refreshing taste not only balances the richness of the rice bowl, but also gives the taste buds a new experience. The literary style space of Muka exudes a quiet atmosphere, allowing people to enjoy this delicious time leisurely, very comfortable and relaxed. #IndoorActivities #One-day tour in the city #100 Ways to Travel
