Wenchang Street - Furniture Street Introduction
Wenchang Street is located at the center of the traditional market between Xinyi Road and Linjiang Street, known as a famous furniture street in Taipei. In the past, this area was mainly home to stores selling wood, hardware, and cement for decoration materials, with very few furniture stores. Some furniture shops would even be seen nailing and assembling sofas right at their doorsteps for sale. Later, due to the demolition of illegal constructions in Daan Forest Park, many nearby furniture businesses relocated here, gradually creating the unique street scene we see today with over a hundred furniture stores, leading to its title as Furniture Street. Today, under the city's planning, this furniture street showcases a blend of traditional streets and modern decor, presenting a unique cultural and economic background while catering to both leisure and shopping needs. The variety of furniture available here is extensive, including European-style, Chinese-style, trendy, and antique designs, ranging from large furniture items to mini home decor. If you're looking for creative furniture that suits your personality, this is definitely the place to be.
