Dihua Street in Taipei’s Datong District is a well-known local north-south goods market. The ancient buildings on the street have styles such as Minnan, Western-style buildings, modernism, and Baroque. It is not wide, and the house is long and deep, so as to take into account the functions of commerce and residence. It is a typical Taiwanese commercial street in the Qing Dynasty, and it is an old street with great historical significance.

The commodities here are various, large and cheap, mainly selling local specialties, dried seafood, ginseng and medicinal herbs, etc., and there are also some snack stalls dotted among them.
