Discovering Taiping Old Street in Meishan, Chiayi

Taiping Old Street in Meishan, Chiayi, is nestled within a misty mountain town. Descending from Sanyuan Temple, you step into this nostalgic little journey. In the cool weather, holding a steaming cup of almond tea warms you to the core. The dried fruits on the street, such as dried tangerines and dried peaches, are perfectly sweet and sour, making them ideal souvenirs. Garlic crisps, on the other hand, are savory, crispy, and irresistibly addictive. Walking between stone steps and wooden windows, it feels as if time itself has slowed down. Here, it’s not just about the scenery but also a pure rhythm of life.
