Taipei|A Must-Visit for Vintage Lovers: A European-Style Curated Shop You'll Fall in Love with Instantly

I love to shop for old objects and small ornaments. I used to go to Chifeng Street to hunt for treasures. But this time when I came to Dihua Street, I was completely amazed by the Modern Mode Cafe opened by artist Zhong Yao. The space is low-key and hidden in the alley, but when you walk in, it feels like walking into a small selection store on the streets of Paris. Several retro European sofas, wooden dining tables, and industrial iron chairs are placed just right, warm and unique. This is not just a cafe, but also a selection store. All furniture is old pieces collected by the boss himself from all over the world. The front half of the space is converted into an ornament display area with old tables. It is full of antique necklaces, earrings, ornaments and European-style utensils. You can buy them and take them home. You can own what you like. It is not just a look but a part of life. I highly recommend it to people who like retro style, treasure hunting, and the old soul. This place has more European warmth and selection aesthetics than Chifeng Street. You will really fall in love with it after a visit. 🔌 Useful information Store name|Modern Mode Cafe Address|No. 197, Section 1, Dihua Street, Datong District, Taipei City Time|11:00 to 19:00 daily #Selected store #Must-visit Dihua Street #Retro Taipei attractions #Artists' cafes #Chifeng Street extension #Taipei cafe recommendations #Selected items paradise #Retro accessories #Old items collection #Dadaocheng private attractions #Lifestyle selection #Café control #July good places 2025

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip Gaifurou Coffee House is located on Xining North Road, one block away from Dihua Street in Taipei. The exterior is made of red bricks with an emerald green door. The first floor is a very nice cafe, and the Taiwanese tea and coffee are delicious! They also serve desserts. Next door is the Taiyuan Asia Puppet Museum, a museum of puppet theater in Taiwan and around the world, and there are panels and bookshelves introducing its founder, Lin Jingfu, and his spirit. There is also another mini-theater called Natto Theater next door, which was built in 1918, so I think Gyakufurou is also a historic building, judging from its style. And the important thing about this cafe is that it leads to supporting young people. I stopped by this cafe thinking it was nice as I was passing by, without knowing anything about its background. They provide a place to stay, a job, technical support, etc. to young people who are forced to turn to delinquency due to various circumstances, and support their independence. If you go up to the second and third floors, there is an explanatory exhibit about Gyakufurou. Although the harsh reality that the children experienced is heartbreaking, I'm glad that there is a place like Gyakufurou that can help people find themselves and achieve their dreams. I hope that I can continue to support them in a small way by using the cafe. The cafe on Dihua Street is extremely crowded, but it's just one street away, so it's calm. The young staff are very friendly and the atmosphere is comfortable, so please stop by. 11:00-18:00 No. 79-1 Xining North Road, Datong District #TaipeiCafeTour #CommentCircle

#AbsolutelyFreeTrip I walked around Dihua Street and visited a few cafes, but I also recommend this one OKO Ecosystem CAFE Dadaocheng As the name suggests, this is a fair trade coffee cafe Fair trade = buying coffee from producers at a fair price and paying a fair wage to improve working conditions and child labor issues By using this cafe, you can contribute even a little to creating a poverty-free society, and it was a cafe that warmed my heart while drinking. And it seems that they also take environmental issues into consideration, so I was able to spend an even more pleasant time The inside of the store is cool, so I had hot coffee. The taste is also good👍 You can also purchase beans, and there is a lush courtyard terrace at the back of the store! I would definitely like to visit again next time I go to Taiwan No. 167, Sec. 1, Dihua Street, Taipei City #TaipeiCafeHunt #CommentCircle
