Many festivals and celebrations are held in Lungshan, often called "meeting place of the gods" for the wealth of deities worshipped here. Lungshan means "Dragon Mountain."

Bangka Lungshan Temple. (also Lungshan Temple of Manka, Mengjia Longshan Temple) is a Chinese folk religious temple in Wanhua District (alternately known as Mengjia), Taipei, Taiwan. The temple was built in Taipei in 1738 by settlers from Fujian during Qing rule in honor of Guanyin. It served as a place of worship and a gathering place for the Chinese settlers. In addition to its Buddhist elements, it includes halls and altars to Chinese deities such as Mazu and Guan Yu. around 5 pm we went there and not that much people and we spent about an hour to roam around the area, very quite and solemn. i loved the architecture and the colors. its a very nice temple Ive seen here in Taiwan. Small but nice one. Also just a short walk away to Huaxi Night Market which is a nice play to spend night and have a street food dinner, How to Get there from Ximenting Ride Mrt Bannan Blue Line and get off at Longshan Temple Station..

I found this ancient street from a tour guide book and ventured out with the family by following the map and instructions. The ancient street is very nearby the Longshan Temple and Longshan MRT Station and about a quick 10 minute walk around the old neighbourhood takes us to the Bopiliao ancient street. The ancient street was preserved by the Taipei Mayor in 2009 to preserve its more than hundreds years of history maintained from the Qing Dynasty and one of the earliest establishment of the Old Taipei City that connects DanShui River that helped with the vibrancy of the city. The city has done a wonderful job preserving the ancient street with many free activities by artists and fun games for children to participate. I even think this could be a perfect venue for some wedding photo shooting.

8. Guangzhou Street Night Market
Overall Ratings
4.0 based on 47 reviews
The Guangzhou Street Night Market sprawls over a 150-meter-long stretch between Wuzhou Street and Huanhe South Road. The market has a long history and subsequently a wide selection of traditional Taiwanese snacks. In addition to the edibles, thar market is lined with shops selling general merchandise, toys and much more, making this a bustling destination for shoppers and eaters alike. Among the delicious traditional flavor snacks here are chewy squid with satay sauce and wasabi. Crispy deep fried spareribs and fried pork fillets are other favorites here. For something sweet, try the old-style flavor jelly fig ice and tapioca pearls. There are also plenty of amusements to enjoy, from pinball to guppy fishing and pet stores. Longshan Temple and an underground MRT mall are also nearby, and the "Bopiliao" area next to Kangding Road is also a favorite family destination on weekends and holidays.

Visited this place after Longshan Temple which is just across the road. The market was already opened mid afternoon although some stalls were only getting ready. Lots of choices and multi-varieties. Worth a visit.

Highly recommended if you want to buy Taiwanese goodies (snacks, tea, etc.) at more reasonable prices compared to purchasing at the touristy areas. Lots of interesting local goodies too. If you intend to buy a lot of things to bring back home, they also offer tax refund.

This multi-level commercial building in trendy Ximending has a bit of everything. Get lost in a maze of stands selling hobby kits, Japanese figurines, stuffed animals, action figures, and comics.
