Once Taipei's busiest river trading port, Dadaocheng Wharf is today a riverside promenade and pier on the Tamsui River, with ferry departures, cycle paths and an open-air container market.
What once bustled because of its role in the city's trade still bustles today as one of Taipei's best-loved spots for locals and tourists alike. You can take a stroll along the riverside promenade, absorbing the fresh open air, or take a ride down its bicycle paths. Take a ferry ride along the Blue Highway of the Tamsui River, truly getting the best views of the landscape around it. Street performers play here in the evenings, and the Pier 5 container market sets up beside the water.
The Dadaocheng Wharf makes for a truly fun day in the outdoors, be it picnics, romantic walks, or simply gazing out over the river.
