In addition to scenic spots, the local cultural life is what tourists want to experience most, right? Therefore, when we plan a trip, we will definitely search the local delicious, fun and shopping places on the Internet before we start, but the articles on the Internet are often repeated after seeing a person’s introduction, and the result finally becomes Everyone goes to the same place.
For example, when it comes to where to go shopping in Taiwan, the stores that everyone can immediately think of should be Eslite, Watsons, Kangshimei or Carrefour, right? Because these stores are well-known, you can buy all the souvenirs you can buy here, which is actually not bad, but "Wanwan, I'm Coming" upholds the spirit of sharing, and found a few places that locals love to shop, but The stores in the mainland may not be as famous as Carrefour. It is a pity that these places have not been visited when they come to Taiwan~
Baoya
A store that claims that girls will disappear as soon as they enter (laughs), Baoya is really amazing! The dream of female colleagues in Wanwan is that there is a Baoya downstairs in the company, which shows how attractive Baoya is. Baoya is a lifestyle department store for beauty, life, and food. In fact, there are many similar lifestyle department stores in Taiwan, but each has different characteristics. For example, Baoya focuses on beauty, hairdressing materials or skin care. In fact, In the past, Baoya was not too special like a general life department store, until it changed its route and assembled a large cosmetics brand with open shelves. Although you may also want to say that drugstores like Watsons can buy it? NONONO, another feature of Baoya is that it occupies a large area ~ so it can accommodate more products than drugstores on the street! Wanwan thinks Baoya is really unique in the "daily life department store" market after changing it to this way!
Daiso
Boyfriends in Taiwan once said: "If there is Daiso next door to Baoya, then the girlfriend will definitely not be able to find someone this day." From such a description that depicts blood and tears, you should know how charming these two stores are~ from Japan's Daiso actually has a branch in Shanghai, but since the small city of Taipei City has a total of 6 branches, that doesn't include the branches in New Taipei City! It is very convenient to go shopping anytime you want. The 39 yuan store Daiso has big and small branches in Taipei City, some are located in a corner of a department store, and some occupy a large area. What remains unchanged is that the store gathers interesting "creative products" from Japan! At this time, I have to admire the ideas of the Japanese, such as small props that allow you to easily shred green onions, a hand-made foamer for making facial cleansing mousse, etc. These are all ideas that only appear in Doraemon's treasure bag. The props are the reason why people have to shop around.
Jingshuo Optics
The largest contact lens chain store in Taiwan! When Wanwan saw Jingshuo Optical’s directly-operated store in Taipei MRT station for the first time, he felt very special and thought: “Is this store specializing in selling contact lenses?”, because it is not like the glasses that are often seen on the street. Jingshuo Optical's directly-operated store does not sell glasses, it really only sells contact lenses! Jingshuo stores can now be seen in major MRT stations and bustling business districts in Taipei, such as MRT Zhongshan Station, Taipei Main Station, Ximending, etc. What's more, since they only sell contact lenses, some stores don't occupy a lot of space, but there are many kinds of products inside, so you don't have to worry about not being able to choose what you like! The most worthwhile point to visit Jingshuo Optical is not only the variety of color contact lenses, but the quality assurance is also very important. There are many people around Wanwan who have been accustomed to wearing their color contact lenses since college, which are beautiful and comfortable. It is not an exaggeration to think of Jingshuo when it comes to color contact lenses. Whether you want mixed-race contact lenses, natural contact lenses, monthly, daily or bi-weekly contact lenses, they are all available in the store, and Japanese cosmetic contact lenses are also available at very cheap prices! No wonder besides the locals, more and more tourists come to Taiwan to visit by name. Obviously it only sells cosmetic contact lenses, but it is also a store where it is difficult to get out of it!
Guangnan
It is also a time-honored lifestyle department store, but unlike Baoya, Guangnan is a stationery expert! Guangnan is really a store that every Taiwanese student must visit, because there are so many types of stationery that the price is explosive, of course, the wholesale price is cheap! A Hong Kong tourist once described that he just wanted to go to Guangnan to buy a few pens, but it took about half an hour just standing in front of the cabinet with the original pens! There are so many to choose from! What's up? Isn’t a blue pen just a blue pen, isn’t a highlighter just a highlighter? Why are there so many types of brands? It’s so hard not to try every one of them! Is it over after you buy it than you thought? The visitor walks to the left and immediately steps into the cycle of notebooks...all kinds of practical, cute, and high-end stationery are available in Guangnan! Stationery lovers should not miss Guangnan!
Yimei Supermarket
Known as "Taiwan's Conscience", Yimei Foods earned this title after surviving several food safety crises. Because Yimei often purchases surplus agricultural products and then makes them into products, Taiwan consumers' favorability towards Yimei has been increasing year by year. Yimei, which was originally a food manufacturer, later opened its own supermarket. In this era of food safety, more and more people will choose to buy directly from Yimei's stores. In Yimei Supermarket, you can buy frozen food, lard, Taiwanese tea or milk tea, pastries, biscuits, bread, ice products and gift boxes, so Yimei Supermarket is not just a place where locals can visit. Visitors can also buy safe and delicious souvenirs here! Yimei’s gift boxes are all exquisite and infused with Taiwanese local culture, which is very suitable for buying as a gift!
If you plan to come to Taiwan to play, but you can only stay in Taipei for a short time due to the itinerary or other reasons, you can see them everywhere in Taipei City in the above-mentioned hotels introduced by Wanwan. , you can choose any of these shops introduced by Wanwan for a long time, and these shops are also very popular with local people. Didn’t you say “Where is the most fun place to travel, just follow the local people”? ? That's what it means.
