Chaoheting Market originated from a fair called Lung-an Market, run by the Taipei City Government. It was full of stalls selling all kinds of meat, fish, and fowl. Located in the heart of one of the most popular tourist areas in Taipei city, Shao He Ting sells a wide variety of antiques from Taiwan’s Japanese colonial era (1895-1945). These include ticket stubs, movie posters, toys, jade ornaments and store signs, as well as larger items like tables, chairs and cabinets. Every weekend, this market is crowded with antique dealers from all over the island, as well as local residents and tourists. I like old lights here, they are so special and old. But I have too many lights in my room now.
Everything is very cheap. Those old things are beautiful and full of memories. If you are looking for CDs that are no longer sold in regular stores, you should check out this shop. There’s a good chance you will dig up a few musical “treasures”. The owner has devoted his energy acquiring these exceptional items. Knowledgeable admirers may be few, and prices reflect rarity, not demand. You can discover a lot of funny things here.
