What people say

Coty Ragdoll
"YongKang is one of my favorite old neighborhood shopping districts. Surrounding, YongKang park are many local shops and famous restaurants. Due to the neighborhood size restrictions, you will only see cute, local shops here. Artisan treasure shops with local Taiwan handcrafts are sold here, as well as touristy and non-touristy souvenir, local clothing, stationary, and accessory shops. Some of the most famous knife cut and thin Beef Noodle shops are in this neighborhood. The streets are narrow and there are quite a few tourists, so be careful of cars when walking along the main streets. Teahouses are some of the best places to stop here, take advantage of the locally grown and harvested green and locals teas. Famous Mango Shaved Ice shops. They can get crowded, but are famous for a reason. The tropical landscape architecture of Yongkang is also a site to see. Beautiful banyan trees and climbing vines wrap the buildings to create a blend of nature and urban vibes. A few blocks SW is Rongjin Gorgeous Time, a small area of Japanese style buildings that are beautiful to see."
"As the home of the original Din Tai Fung, this street is a must-visit for food enthusiasts. You can enjoy a leisurely breakfast at Yongkang Park by dining at one of the local restaurants or grabbing delicious takeaway bites from nearby vendors. For unique souvenirs, be sure to visit 築夢-JUMENG- and Lai Hao for creative gifts, and 瑪瑪商店 MAMA 手創 for stylish umbrellas and stationery."
