Taipei Xia Hai City God TempleDadaocheng also hosts one of the most popular temples in the city, the City God Temple. The history of this temple is intimately tied to the history of Dadaocheng, as it was founded shortly after the first settlers came to Dihua Street. This temple is also popular amongst the locals for being the place to pray to find your special one.

Sin Hong Choon(OPTIONAL, depends on availability) This old Tea Shop was established in 1934 in Dadaocheng. Is a beautifully restored three-story building that once served as a tea shop, factory, warehouse, and residence.
-
If Sin Hong Choon is no available on the day of your tour we can visit beautiful Wang tea instead. Run by the Wang family who moved to Taiwan from China in 1890. Their shop was their base for the export of tea to Southeast Asia. We will have the opportunity to visit Wang’s tea factory and discover the traditional way to produce and store tea. The store’s staff and our friendly guides will guide you through the basic types of tea (oolong, black, green, tieguanyin, etc.) and demonstrate how to perform a Taiwanese tea ceremony.
- Dadaocheng Wharf, also known as Pier 9, is a scenic riverside destination in Taipei's historic Dadaocheng district. Once a bustling trade port, it now offers picturesque sunset views over the Tamsui River, lively food stalls, and a relaxed atmosphere. (pass by)
