Where to Buy Souvenirs in Taiwan
Lai Hao on Yongkang Street is one of the best souvenir shops in Taipei
For all my recommended Taiwan souvenirs below, I’ll tell you exactly where you can buy each of them. However, if you just want to do some general souvenir browsing, here are some of the best places to buy souvenirs in Taipei and other cities:
Taiwan’s four international Airports
(
Taoyuan
, Songshan, Taichung, Kaohsiung) for all kinds of souvenirs. Get them right before you leave, but prices will be higher.
Ximending Shopping District
in Taipei for general and cheap souvenirs (see my
Ximending guide
), including the excellent
Red House Weekend Creative Market
Lai Hao
(來好) shop on
Yongkang Street
also for general souvenirs

Gift Shop
(89th floor) for cute modern souvenirs

Gift Shop

Northern
and
Southern
branches) for traditional souvenirs

, as recommended by members of
my Facebook group

Best Traditional Souvenirs
The following are traditional Taiwanese souvenirs –
classic, cultural items
to remember your trip to Taiwan.
Taiwanese Beer Glasses
Cute beer glasses
In family homes and restaurants across the country, locals drink Taiwan beer out of tiny, clear glasses. They always cheers before drinking and drink the whole glass in one go.
If you purchase a
Taipei Unlimited Fun Pass
(see
on Klook
/
KKday
) you will get a pair of these glasses for free, with cute dragon and bear on the side. Read my
guide to the Fun Pass
for more info.
The dragon one says “好吃 Ho Jia”, which is Mandarin and
Hokkien
(Taiwanese language) for “delicious”.
The tiger one says “乾啦 Hodala”, which is the Mandarin and Hokkien for “cheers”.
You can also
Kaohsiung versions
of the glasses, which have the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas on them, with the
Kaohsiung Fun Pass
. Start collecting!
Ceramic Tea Set
Tea set in Yingge
Taiwan is famous for
its tea, so it’s no surprise that it also produces some gorgeous hand-made ceramics, pottery, and tea sets. You can find anything from single all-in-one brewing mugs to elaborate
full tea sets
with all the gear for making
gongfu-style tea
.
A tea set can be a beautiful decoration for your home that also serves a practical purpose. I’ve purchased several tea sets as souvenirs from Taiwan. I use them every day before return them back to my living room shelf. Nicer ones can even make a
good wedding gift
– that’s what I bought for my sister when she got married!
Using a traditional tea set for making tea
In Taipei, you can purchase
beautiful tea sets at
Lin Mao Sen Tea Company
and
Wang Tea
. Both shops are near Dihua Street and are also excellent places to buy a wide variety of Taiwanese loose teas. Dihua Street itself also has
Lohas Pottery
and a few other ceramics shops with tea sets.
On
Yongkang Street
, best-known for its many Taiwanese restaurants, you can also find beautiful tea sets at
Lin’s Ceramic Studio
and a few others.
For far greater selection
, take a trip to
Yingge Ceramics Street
in
New Taipei City
(30 minutes by local train from Taipei Main Station). There are over 100 shops there selling all kinds of pottery, ceramics, and teaware, spanning all price ranges. There’s also an excellent Ceramics Museum there.
Chinese Name Stamp
Every Taiwanese has one of these
What is cooler than having a
traditional name seal
to stamp your name? Everyone in Taiwan has one of these, and they frequently use them as a form of signature.
It’s quite easy and cheap to have a local stamp maker to custom create a name stamp for you. There are a variety of designs and materials to choose from. They can usually be made
within a few hours
.
If you don’t have a Chinese name already, you can ask the vendor to
transliterate your name
based on how it sounds. You might want to just stick to your first name, otherwise it will become too long (most Chinese names only have three characters). For example, Marc could become 馬克 (
ma ke
), but Christina would become 克里斯蒂娜 (
ke li si di na
).
Another option would be to ask a Taiwanese person to
choose a real Chinese name for you
based on some things that you like. For example, my wife chose my Chinese name 章森平 (
zhang
= article, because I’m a writer,
sen
= forest because I love the forest, and
ping
= peace, because I’m a peaceful person). You can’t just choose random characters yourself, though, because those characters might never be used for names, so it would sound weird.
To have a stamp made in Taipei, probably the best option for visitors is
Rixing Foundry
(日星鑄字行,
here
), which is also just a cool place to visit. They offer a variety of styles, fonts, cases, and so on. It’s near Dihua Street.
For a more typical place like most locals get theirs at, try
here
,
here
, or
here
. You can also
pre-order name stamps for pick-up here
. Or just search “印章” in any city on GoogleMaps to find many more.

praying for love at Longshan Temple
!
Qipao Outfit
Qipao shop in Taipei City Mall
Qipao and Hanfu are traditional Chinese outfits. Either one has versions for men or women. There are many
places in Taiwan where you can rent qipao
, but it’s also possible to buy one or have one
custom made
for you to take home.
I shot the above photo of a cheaper qipao shop in
Taipei City Mall
(also called Y Mall) below Taipei Main Station, near exit Y6. The mall runs below Civic Boulevard on the north side of Taipei train station. K Mall (also underground and just west of the station) and Z Mall (under Zhongxiao West Road,
here
) also has shops.
More for sale in K Mall
Other places to buy them include
this one in Ximending
and
this one in Zhongshan district
.
You can also
get one made here
or
here
. For other cities in Taiwan, input 旗袍 (qipao) into GoogleMaps and you can find options in any major city.
Traditional Fan
Typical cheaper fan
Traditional Chinese/Taiwanese fans are beautiful, delicate souvenirs. They can make the perfect
shelf decoration
when folded out and mounted for display, or they can be practical items which you actually use to fan yourself in hot weather.
These fans can range from very cheap and likely to break to expensive works of art. Many of them fold up, with a bamboo stick to protect them, so these are very
small and easy to transport
. Others may be round/oval shape and don’t fold up.
Some gift shops in Taipei with fans include
this shop
or National Palace Museum’s
gift shop
. You can also buy them at
this shop
on
Lukang Old Street
in Changhua county.
Calligraphy Set
Traditional baby brush set
Another beautiful Taiwanese souvenir that can have decorative or practice purposes is a traditional calligraphy set. These may include calligraphy brushes, brush stands, ink holders, name stamps, and other related items.
Again, these can range from cheap functional sets to
works of art
created by masters with generations of brush making behind them.
A particularly
famous shop
that I once interviewed for a calligraphy article in Discover Taipei magazine is
Guo Jia Tai
in Taipei.
His shop also specializes in making traditional
baby brush sets
. These typically include three things: a brush made with the newborn baby’s hair, footprints, and a container for the baby’s umbilical cord. The shop has regular sets, too.
Search “書法” in GoogleMaps anywhere in Taiwan to find local shops selling calligraphy gear.
Lanterns
Lao Ming Cheng Lantern Shop
You know those cute lanterns you saw hanging at Jiufen Old Street, in temples, or other places in Taiwan? Well, you can buy your own at
Lao Mian Cheng Lantern Shop
here
on
Dihua Street in Taipei
.
For something smaller, you can by a
cute decorative version
(see pic below) of the sky lanterns released during
Pingxi Lantern Festival
. You can find these in tourist souvenir shops in Ximending,
Shifen Old Street
, Pingxi Old Street, or Jingtong Old Street on the
Pingxi Train Line
.

Mini lanterns for sale in Ximending
Hakka Paper Umbrella
Hakka paper umbrellas at Meinong Folk Village
The Hakka people in Meining, a community in
Kaohsiung
, have a traditional of making beautiful
paper umbrellas
. The
stem is made of bamboo
, while the paper is painted with traditional images then coated in a protective oil.
In most of Taiwan, giving an umbrella to someone is a cultural faux-pas, because the word for umbrella sands like “attend a funeral”. But for the Hakka people in Meinong, “oil” sounds like “have” and umbrella” sounds like “son”, so giving one can be a way to
wish someone will have a son
soon.
I love the Hakka umbrella that I purchased there and I now have it opened and on display in my living room.
The best place to see and purchase one of these beautiful umbrellas is
Meinong Folk Village
in Meinong. This would be a half day trip from Kaohsiung city center, which you could combine with a visit to
Fo Guang Shan Monastery
.
Buddhist & Taoist Statues
Buddhist and Taoist god statues
For many of us non-Asian tourists in Taiwan, a statue of a Buddha or Taoist god seems pretty exotic and looks cool on display in our house. Or perhaps you are a practictioner of either of these religions and it has a religious meaning for you.
Either way, the best place to shop for items like this is a whole
street of shops selling religious paraphernalia
near
Longshan Temple in Taipei
.
The shops stretch from around
this one
to
this one
, with many more in between. Besides statues, there carry
other religious items
like candle and incense holders, altar decorations, and more.
Incense
Incense for sale in Taipei
Traditional Chinese incense is an interesting souvenir item. Most
locals would find it odd
to buy incense as a souvenir. This is because they don’t burn it in their house just for fun or to make a nice smell like some Western people do. For them, they burn it in temples, when doing ancestor worship, or at funerals.
Still, one of the times my parents came to visit me in Taiwan, something my father really wanted to buy was incense for burning at home. The smell really
reminds him of Taiwan
.
I found a great collection of
incense shops near Dihua Street
, around
this one
and
this one
. Besides a wide variety of incense, include stick and cone varieties, they also sell receptacles for burning the incense.
Moghania Root (
yi tiao geng
) Products
Yi tiao geng
(一條根) is a root that is
native to Kinmen Island
(金門) in Taiwan. It is used to make a variety of liquid, cream, or balm products which are rubbed onto the skin to
relieve sore muscles
, joints, and other conditions. It has a herbal smell and feels soothing and “minty” on the skin.
The product is
similar to Tiger Balm
(which is from Singapore but also widely available in Taiwan, including most convenience stores). Even though it’s Taiwanese and widely available, it can be a little harder for travelers to track down, especially since it is seldom labeled in English.
To find it, seek out
this vendor in Ximending
,
this pharmacy in Shilin
, stands in night markets, or pharmacies like Watsons.
Medicines & Herbs
Traditional Chinese medicines and herbs are widely available in Taiwan. They can used to
treat all kinds of diseases and ailments
. Ask any taiwanese person, and they’ll tell you that Chinese medicine (often taken as tea) tastes really bad, but works if used regularly over time.
The best places to buy Chinese medicines and herbs in Taipei are
Dihua Street
and
Herb Alley
beside Longshan Temple. In Kaohsiung, there are several shops on
Sanfeng Chinese Medicine Street
.
You can also find some more unusual traditional items in these shops like bird’s nest soup. Make sure to
check your country’s import regulations
before you bring in any plant or animal-based products.
Modern (and Cute) Souvenirs
If you’re into cuter or more modern souvenirs, these recommendations are for you.
Totoro & Spirited Away Merch
Even though Hayao Miyazaki films like
Totoro
and
Spirited Away
are from Japan, they are
immensely popular in Taiwan
.
There are several Totoro statues and bus stops across Taiwan. And many people perpetuate the
myth that Spirited Away was based on
Jiufen
in New Taipei City, even though Miyazaki himself has said that this is not true.
Anyways, you can load up on
Totoro supplies
at
Donguri Republic
(Ghibli-themed store) on the 4
th
floor of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taipei Xinyi Place (A8 building)
near Taipei 101
. There also lots of items featuring Jiji the black cat from
Kiki’s Delivery Service
.
For
Spirited Away
fans, watch for various items on Jiufen Old Street.
Donguri Republic, the “Totoro Store”
Cute EasyCards
Swiping an
EasyCard
for riding Taipei and Taiwan’s amazing public transportation and paying for other things is an awesome aspect of the Taiwan travel experience.
Why not remember it by getting a super cute (and fully functional) specialty EasyCard? EasyCard designs are
constantly changing
, but often feature cute animals, famous cartoon characters, or symbols of Taiwan.
You can buy these cute EasyCards at any
7-Eleven or FamilyMart
in Taiwan. If you don’t see them on display (often near the till), simply ask the clerk to see their 台灣造型悠遊卡 (Taiwan style EasyCards).
The price ranges from
TWD 100 to 500
(compared to TWD 100 for a normal EasyCard), plus any money you want to load onto it. You ca load them when you purchase them at the convenience store or any any MRT station.
Cat Wallets, Postcards, & Beckoning Arm Cats
My kids and I are cat freaks, so we’ve bought all kinds of fun cat souvenirs in Taiwan. We have a growing collection of
cat postcards
showing cats in various traditional scenes in Taiwan.
We also often buy little
cat wallets
or change purses as cheap Taiwan souvenirs for friends.
You can buy all kinds of cat-related items at
Houtong Cat Village
(see image above).
This shop in Houtong
is the best place in Taiwan to buy
maneki-neko
(beckoning/waving arm cats).
In Taipei, you can find the waving arm cats at
this shop in Ximending
or in the underground shopping streets below Taipei Main Station.
In Taipei, this
cat café
has lots of cat souvenirs (see my guide to the
best cat cafes in Taipei
).
Waving arm cat in Houtong Cat Village
Pet Clothing and Backpacks
You will soon notice that people in Taiwan like to take their tiny animals everywhere. They’ll even use
pet strollers
, pet backpacks, and dress their pets up in clothing.
These items can also make fun souvenirs or gifts for you pet-loving friends back at home.
It is common to see a stall selling pet clothing at
night markets
in Taiwan. Find
pet strollers here
, fancier
pet clothing here
,
dog goggles here
, and
pet backpacks here
. You can also search 寵物商店 (pet store) on GoogleMaps to find pet supplies anywhere in Taiwan.
Tote Bags
Cute tote bags in Ximending
Tote bags are a very popular and cheap souvenir from Taiwan. You can find all kinds of cute cloth ones in shopping areas like
Ximending
, such as in the above photo.
A more traditional and
vintage / iconic Taiwanese tote bag
is the mesh ones, usually red, green, and blue, as in the below photo. Some Taiwanese jokingly call these “
Taiwan’s LV (Louis Vuitton) bags
“.
You can find these in traditional markets, Dihua Street, and Lai Hao souvenir store in Taipei.
Taiwan’s “LV” bags
Japanese Import Item
Pokemon instant noodles from Japan
Taiwanese love buying imported Japanese products, especially when they are cheap. This is one reason why the Japanese discount store
Don Don Donki
has become so popular in Taiwan. There you can find imported Japanese snacks, cosmetics, street foods, decorations, Pokemon products, and even sex toys.
There are three Don Don Donki locations in Taipei:
Ximending
,
Zhongxiao Xinsheng
, and
Nangang
. There’s also one
in Taichung
(see my
Taichung city guide
).
Another one worth trying is
Hands Tailung
, which is the Taiwanese version of the popular chain Tokyu Hands in Japan. The store also sells a wide variety of (often cute) Japanese kitchenware, bathroom products, toys, household supplies, and more.
There are 15 branches of Hands Tailung in Taiwan – just search the English name or 台隆手創館 on GoogleMaps.
Stationery Shops
Cute stationery items
Did you know that many tourists head to local stationery stores to buy souvenirs in Taiwan? I didn’t even know that this was a thing until multiple people asked about them in my Facebook group (usually they are from Singapore).
I often call Taiwan’s stationery stores
“everything stores”
because they sell a bit of everything. You can find lots of cheap souvenirs like cute socks, stickers, notepads, pencil cases, lunchboxes, kitchen items, clothing, and more.
One large stationary store you can try is
Many Stationery store
. Another cosmetics chain,
Poya
, also has some stationery and a little bit of everything. You can also search 文具產品 on GoogleMaps for other local stationery shops.
Sanrio, Lego, Pokemon, Disney Products
Sanrio Shop at Taoyuan Airport
You may be thrilled to know that the departures area (controlled area, after you go through immigration) of T2 in
Taoyuan International Airport
has a brand new
Sanrio
(Hello Kitty) and
Lego store
– yes, that means they’re both duty free!
There are also
Disney stores
in both terminals. Note that these shops are not open 24/7, so you won’t be able to shop in them if you have a flight departing super early in the morning or late at night.
Sanrio themed 7-11 in Ximending
There are two
Sanrio-themed 7-Elevens
in Taipei, which also sell some Sanrio products. They are both in Ximending,
here
and
here
. There’s also a
Sanrio gift store
in Sogo department store.
For all kinds of Pokemon products, including Pokemon stuffies, trading cards, and even Pokemon EasyCards, there’s a
Pokemon Center
on the 3rd floor of Shinkong Mitsukoshi department store building A11.
My kids in the Pokemon Center
Otaku Souvenirs
Get your nerd on
Since we’re on the topic of Japanese characters, let’s get more into it. You can buy all kids of
otaku
(Japanese pop culture) products in Taiwan.
Your first go-to stop for otaku souvenirs should be the
Underground Mall below Taipei Main Station
, specifically the underground shopping street near exit Y17. There are multiple shops there selling Japanese and Chinese toy models, figurines, posters, video games, and so on.
Next, head to
Ximending
, where there are several otaku souvenir shops of interest.
Animate Store
will satisfy all your
manga/anime
souvenir needs, while Animate Café has a branch
here
and
here
nearby.
Try
Idol King
and
95樂府
for
T-pop and K-pop
products. Last but definitely not least,
Wan Nian Building
in Ximending is an entire building full of otaku products (it also has a Michelin
beef noodle shop
at B1).
Din Tai Fung Stuffy
One good way to remember your experience at
Taiwan’s most famous restaurant
, Din Tai Fung, is with one of their soup dumping (
xiaolongbao
) souvenirs.
Most Din Tai Fung branches in Taiwan sell
a variety of souvenirs
, including xiaolongbao stuffies, keychains, pins, towels, figurines, mugs, and more.
These are not usually available at Din Tai Fung locations around the world, so you can surprise your friends at home, even if they have a Din Tai Fung branch in their city.
Magnets & Drink Coasters
I’m currently building up my collection of Taiwan-themed magnets and magnetic drink coasters. Above is just a small sample of them. These are a cheap but fun Taiwan souvenir or gift idea.
You can find location specific magnets at tourist attractions across Taiwan. The airport is also an obvious place to find typical Taiwan tourist magnets, while I found the magnetic drink coasters at the excellent gift shop at
Taipei 101 Observatory
.
Starbucks Mugs
Starbucks is very popular in Taiwan. There are multiple
Taiwan-focused ceramic mugs
and insulated beverage holders – browse just
a few of them here
.
Some Starbucks mugs are city or
attraction-specific
(for example, I have a
Taroko Gorge
one) and some are pan-Taiwan.
Often, you can only get the location specific ones at a single Starbucks branch. Several of the branches on my
list of special Starbucks in Taiwan
has location-specific mugs.
Tatung Multi-Functional Cooker
Tatung cookers (大同電鍋) are an
iconic Taiwanese appliance
. You can even see stickers and postcards of them. Every household kitchen in Taiwan has one. They come in a variety of retro (like 70s green or orange) or more modern colors, like pastels.
These amazing kitchen appliances are
super durable and versatile
. They can be used for cooking rice, steaming baozi, making hard boiled eggs, and heating up food just like a microwave. We have one in our kitchen in Canada (see image above). Not only does it look cool, but we use it pretty much every day!
While this appliance is a little big and heavy, you should have no problem checking it in for your flight. You can buy these at any
Tatung 3C appliance stores
in Taipei or other cities in Taiwan, for example
here
and
here
, or at genera appliance stores like 全國電子.
So, what do you plan to buy? Or did I miss any souvenirs that you brought home from Taiwan? Let me know in the comments below! |

Wondering what to buy in Taiwan? In this article, I’m going to introduce more than 20 of the best Taiwan souvenirs. I’ll cover both traditional and modern/cute items, ranging from cheap souvenirs to expensive ones.
I’ve personally purchased most of these items, so I’ll even tell you exactly where to buy them. I’ll focus mainly on souvenirs in [Taipei](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taipei-taiwan-guide/ "A Travel Guide to Taipei, Taiwan’s Tantalizing Capital"), since that’s where majority of tourists pass through.
I wrote separate guides to the [best food souvenirs](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taiwan-snacks-food-souvenirs/ "15+ Snacks in Taiwan that Make the Perfect Food Souvenirs"), [pineapple cakes](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/best-taiwan-pineapple-cakes/ "My Taiwan Pineapple Cakes Test: Which One is the Best?"), and [tea souvenirs](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/where-to-buy-tea-in-taipei/ "Where to Buy Tea in Taipei: My Most Recommended Tea Shops") because there are just too many! In this article, I will focus on **non-edible souvenirs**.
I’ve also got this [guide to shopping in Taipei](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/shopping-in-taipei/), where you can find out where to buy clothing, cosmetics, electronics, and more.

## Where to Buy Souvenirs in Taiwan


Lai Hao on Yongkang Street is one of the best souvenir shops in Taipei
For all my recommended Taiwan souvenirs below, I’ll tell you exactly where you can buy each of them. However, if you just want to do some general souvenir browsing, here are some of the best places to buy souvenirs in Taipei and other cities:
- **Taiwan’s four international Airports** ([Taoyuan](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taoyuan-airport-what-to-do/ "Taoyuan Airport Guide: How to Tackle TPE Like a Boss"), Songshan, Taichung, Kaohsiung) for all kinds of souvenirs. Get them right before you leave, but prices will be higher.
- **Ximending Shopping District** in Taipei for general and cheap souvenirs (see my [Ximending guide](https://www.nickkembel.com/taipei-ximending-night-market/)), including the excellent [Red House Weekend Creative Market](https://www.redhouse.taipei/redhouseMarket.aspx?id=1)

## Best Traditional Souvenirs
The following are traditional Taiwanese souvenirs – **classic, cultural items** to remember your trip to Taiwan.
### Taiwanese Beer Glasses


Cute beer glasses
In family homes and restaurants across the country, locals drink Taiwan beer out of tiny, clear glasses. They always cheers before drinking and drink the whole glass in one go.
If you purchase a **Taipei Unlimited Fun Pass** (see [on Klook](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taipei-fun-pass-klook) / [KKday](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taipei-fun-pass-kkday)) you will get a pair of these glasses for free, with cute dragon and bear on the side. Read my [guide to the Fun Pass](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taipei-fun-pass/) for more info.
The dragon one says “好吃 Ho Jia”, which is Mandarin and [Hokkien](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taiwan-languages/) (Taiwanese language) for “delicious”.
The tiger one says “乾啦 Hodala”, which is the Mandarin and Hokkien for “cheers”.
You can also **Kaohsiung versions** of the glasses, which have the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas on them, with the [Kaohsiung Fun Pass](https://klook.tpx.lu/254g0qsG). Start collecting\!
### Ceramic Tea Set


Tea set in Yingge
[Taiwan is famous for](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taiwan-known-for/ "23 Things that Taiwan is Famous For (D’you know them all?)") its tea, so it’s no surprise that it also produces some gorgeous hand-made ceramics, pottery, and tea sets. You can find anything from single all-in-one brewing mugs to elaborate **full tea sets** with all the gear for making [gongfu-style tea](https://www.nickkembel.com/tea-in-taiwan/#How_to_Brew_Taiwanese_Tea).
A tea set can be a beautiful decoration for your home that also serves a practical purpose. I’ve purchased several tea sets as souvenirs from Taiwan. I use them every day before return them back to my living room shelf. Nicer ones can even make a **good wedding gift** – that’s what I bought for my sister when she got married\!


Using a traditional tea set for making tea
In Taipei, you can purchase **beautiful tea sets at** [Lin Mao Sen Tea Company](https://goo.gl/maps/632tG4asejZDGqSV9) and [Wang Tea](https://goo.gl/maps/jmRAT1eGuWVLwAG77). Both shops are near Dihua Street and are also excellent places to buy a wide variety of Taiwanese loose teas. Dihua Street itself also has [Lohas Pottery](https://maps.app.goo.gl/CoxgcYEQSwLLkAUv5) and a few other ceramics shops with tea sets.
On [Yongkang Street](https://www.nickkembel.com/yong-kang-street-taipei-food/), best-known for its many Taiwanese restaurants, you can also find beautiful tea sets at [Lin’s Ceramic Studio](https://maps.app.goo.gl/miSu1nmQsVSbu84YA) and a few others.
**For far greater selection**, take a trip to [Yingge Ceramics Street](https://www.nickkembel.com/ceramics-and-pottery-shopping-in-yingge/) in [New Taipei City](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/new-taipei-city-guide/ "A Travel Guide to New Taipei City, the City of Day Trips") (30 minutes by local train from Taipei Main Station). There are over 100 shops there selling all kinds of pottery, ceramics, and teaware, spanning all price ranges. There’s also an excellent Ceramics Museum there.
### Chinese Name Stamp


Every Taiwanese has one of these
What is cooler than having a **traditional name seal** to stamp your name? Everyone in Taiwan has one of these, and they frequently use them as a form of signature.
It’s quite easy and cheap to have a local stamp maker to custom create a name stamp for you. There are a variety of designs and materials to choose from. They can usually be made **within a few hours**.
If you don’t have a Chinese name already, you can ask the vendor to **transliterate your name** based on how it sounds. You might want to just stick to your first name, otherwise it will become too long (most Chinese names only have three characters). For example, Marc could become 馬克 (*ma ke*), but Christina would become 克里斯蒂娜 (*ke li si di na*).
Another option would be to ask a Taiwanese person to **choose a real Chinese name for you** based on some things that you like. For example, my wife chose my Chinese name 章森平 (*zhang* = article, because I’m a writer, *sen* = forest because I love the forest, and *ping* = peace, because I’m a peaceful person). You can’t just choose random characters yourself, though, because those characters might never be used for names, so it would sound weird.
To have a stamp made in Taipei, probably the best option for visitors is **Rixing Foundry** (日星鑄字行, [here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/Zas8HgvfgEQVKvZf8)), which is also just a cool place to visit. They offer a variety of styles, fonts, cases, and so on. It’s near Dihua Street.
For a more typical place like most locals get theirs at, try [here](https://goo.gl/maps/BQsDFtEqeWEdJd3a6), [here](https://goo.gl/maps/Lg4hiSfWaUhJoFbc6), or [here](https://goo.gl/maps/tMujqw9yR6RYuu986). You can also [pre-order name stamps for pick-up here](https://www.chop.com.tw/). Or just search “印章” in any city on GoogleMaps to find many more.
**Find out how to get a red string bracelet for free after [praying for love at Longshan Temple](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/longshan-temple-taipei/ "How to Visit and Pray for Love at Longshan Temple, Taipei")\!**
### Qipao Outfit


Qipao shop in Taipei City Mall
Qipao and Hanfu are traditional Chinese outfits. Either one has versions for men or women. There are many [places in Taiwan where you can rent qipao](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/kimono-hanfu-qipao-rent-buy/ "Where to Buy or Rent a Kimono, Hanfu, or Qipao in Taiwan"), but it’s also possible to buy one or have one **custom made** for you to take home.
I shot the above photo of a cheaper qipao shop in **Taipei City Mall** (also called Y Mall) below Taipei Main Station, near exit Y6. The mall runs below Civic Boulevard on the north side of Taipei train station. K Mall (also underground and just west of the station) and Z Mall (under Zhongxiao West Road, [here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/sMw8rEoYHrPQCNQv9)) also has shops.


More for sale in K Mall
Other places to buy them include [this one in Ximending](https://maps.app.goo.gl/wkCh5fQR4AYutsEx8 "this one in Ximending") and [this one in Zhongshan district](https://maps.app.goo.gl/esf2mKTffWh27EW98).
You can also [get one made here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/RdNRJQkbHz6kSxck7) or [here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/XMaxFczag5maqLudA). For other cities in Taiwan, input 旗袍 (qipao) into GoogleMaps and you can find options in any major city.
### Traditional Fan


Typical cheaper fan
Traditional Chinese/Taiwanese fans are beautiful, delicate souvenirs. They can make the perfect **shelf decoration** when folded out and mounted for display, or they can be practical items which you actually use to fan yourself in hot weather.
These fans can range from very cheap and likely to break to expensive works of art. Many of them fold up, with a bamboo stick to protect them, so these are very **small and easy to transport**. Others may be round/oval shape and don’t fold up.
Some gift shops in Taipei with fans include [this shop](https://goo.gl/maps/LSo642mXv32atTsU9) or National Palace Museum’s [gift shop](https://goo.gl/maps/5LDGszKE4GrWE6gF7). You can also buy them at [this shop](https://goo.gl/maps/48tHs5GNqcissYkM6) on [Lukang Old Street](https://www.nickkembel.com/lukang-old-street/) in Changhua county.
### Calligraphy Set


Traditional baby brush set
Another beautiful Taiwanese souvenir that can have decorative or practice purposes is a traditional calligraphy set. These may include calligraphy brushes, brush stands, ink holders, name stamps, and other related items.
Again, these can range from cheap functional sets to **works of art** created by masters with generations of brush making behind them.
A particularly **famous shop** that I once interviewed for a calligraphy article in Discover Taipei magazine is [Guo Jia Tai](https://goo.gl/maps/aDvBLzv8T9qsZHe7A) in Taipei.
His shop also specializes in making traditional **baby brush sets**. These typically include three things: a brush made with the newborn baby’s hair, footprints, and a container for the baby’s umbilical cord. The shop has regular sets, too.
Search “書法” in GoogleMaps anywhere in Taiwan to find local shops selling calligraphy gear.
### Lanterns


Lao Ming Cheng Lantern Shop
You know those cute lanterns you saw hanging at Jiufen Old Street, in temples, or other places in Taiwan? Well, you can buy your own at **Lao Mian Cheng Lantern Shop** [here](https://maps.app.goo.gl/EX5dZvk1m47j1or6A) on [Dihua Street in Taipei](https://www.nickkembel.com/dadaocheng-dihua-street-walking-tour/).
For something smaller, you can by a **cute decorative version** (see pic below) of the sky lanterns released during [Pingxi Lantern Festival](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/lantern-festival-pingxi-taipei-taiwan/ "2024 Taiwan Lantern Festival: Pingxi, Taipei, Tainan & Other Events"). You can find these in tourist souvenir shops in Ximending, [Shifen Old Street](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/shifen-old-street-sky-lanterns/ "A Guide to Shifen Old Street, Taiwan’s Famous Sky Lantern Spot"), Pingxi Old Street, or Jingtong Old Street on the [Pingxi Train Line](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/pingxi-railway-line/ "11 Awesome Stops on the Pingxi Railway Line in New Taipei City").

### Hakka Paper Umbrella


Hakka paper umbrellas at Meinong Folk Village
The Hakka people in Meining, a community in [Kaohsiung](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/kaohsiung-city-taiwan/ "A Travel Guide to Kaohsiung, Taiwan’s Southern Port City"), have a traditional of making beautiful [paper umbrellas](https://english.hakka.gov.tw/Content/Content?NodeID=684&PageID=42444&LanguageType=ENG). The **stem is made of bamboo**, while the paper is painted with traditional images then coated in a protective oil.
In most of Taiwan, giving an umbrella to someone is a cultural faux-pas, because the word for umbrella sands like “attend a funeral”. But for the Hakka people in Meinong, “oil” sounds like “have” and umbrella” sounds like “son”, so giving one can be a way to **wish someone will have a son** soon.
I love the Hakka umbrella that I purchased there and I now have it opened and on display in my living room.
The best place to see and purchase one of these beautiful umbrellas is [Meinong Folk Village](https://goo.gl/maps/FUYY4JMdWMCV5kVK7) in Meinong. This would be a half day trip from Kaohsiung city center, which you could combine with a visit to [Fo Guang Shan Monastery](https://www.nickkembel.com/fo-guang-shan-taiwan/).
### Buddhist & Taoist Statues


Buddhist and Taoist god statues
For many of us non-Asian tourists in Taiwan, a statue of a Buddha or Taoist god seems pretty exotic and looks cool on display in our house. Or perhaps you are a practictioner of either of these religions and it has a religious meaning for you.
Either way, the best place to shop for items like this is a whole **street of shops selling religious paraphernalia** near [Longshan Temple in Taipei](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/longshan-temple-taipei/ "How to Visit and Pray for Love at Longshan Temple, Taipei").
The shops stretch from around [this one](https://goo.gl/maps/4AvWNFKtDhB73xib6) to [this one](https://goo.gl/maps/PUjTZwAhtcvm8QvF6), with many more in between. Besides statues, there carry **other religious items** like candle and incense holders, altar decorations, and more.
### Incense


Incense for sale in Taipei
Traditional Chinese incense is an interesting souvenir item. Most **locals would find it odd** to buy incense as a souvenir. This is because they don’t burn it in their house just for fun or to make a nice smell like some Western people do. For them, they burn it in temples, when doing ancestor worship, or at funerals.
Still, one of the times my parents came to visit me in Taiwan, something my father really wanted to buy was incense for burning at home. The smell really **reminds him of Taiwan**.
I found a great collection of **incense shops near Dihua Street**, around [this one](https://goo.gl/maps/pcAApvAA6eR9LchY6) and [this one](https://goo.gl/maps/G1dNj7hjx2Xfvo2v7). Besides a wide variety of incense, include stick and cone varieties, they also sell receptacles for burning the incense.
### Moghania Root (*yi tiao geng*) Products


*Yi tiao geng* (一條根) is a root that is **native to Kinmen Island** (金門) in Taiwan. It is used to make a variety of liquid, cream, or balm products which are rubbed onto the skin to **relieve sore muscles**, joints, and other conditions. It has a herbal smell and feels soothing and “minty” on the skin.
The product is **similar to Tiger Balm** (which is from Singapore but also widely available in Taiwan, including most convenience stores). Even though it’s Taiwanese and widely available, it can be a little harder for travelers to track down, especially since it is seldom labeled in English.
To find it, seek out [this vendor in Ximending](https://maps.app.goo.gl/rEy5oFepnrQpduxEA), [this pharmacy in Shilin](https://maps.app.goo.gl/KqQ7jktawxsg1q4p6), stands in night markets, or pharmacies like Watsons.
### Medicines & Herbs


Traditional Chinese medicines and herbs are widely available in Taiwan. They can used to **treat all kinds of diseases and ailments**. Ask any taiwanese person, and they’ll tell you that Chinese medicine (often taken as tea) tastes really bad, but works if used regularly over time.
The best places to buy Chinese medicines and herbs in Taipei are [Dihua Street](https://www.nickkembel.com/dadaocheng-dihua-street-walking-tour/) and **Herb Alley** beside Longshan Temple. In Kaohsiung, there are several shops on [Sanfeng Chinese Medicine Street](https://goo.gl/maps/cnsDE55ANBDwr7CT7).
You can also find some more unusual traditional items in these shops like bird’s nest soup. Make sure to **check your country’s import regulations** before you bring in any plant or animal-based products.
## Modern (and Cute) Souvenirs
If you’re into cuter or more modern souvenirs, these recommendations are for you.
### Totoro & Spirited Away Merch


Even though Hayao Miyazaki films like *Totoro* and *Spirited Away* are from Japan, they are **immensely popular in Taiwan**.
There are several Totoro statues and bus stops across Taiwan. And many people perpetuate the **myth that Spirited Away was based on [Jiufen](https://www.nickkembel.com/jiufen-old-street-taiwan/)** in New Taipei City, even though Miyazaki himself has said that this is not true.
Anyways, you can load up on **Totoro supplies** at [Donguri Republic](https://goo.gl/maps/F9BT6NfRUWuiP9bW6) (Ghibli-themed store) on the 4th floor of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi Taipei Xinyi Place (A8 building) [near Taipei 101](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taipei-101/ "A Taipei 101 Visitor’s Guide – Experience Taiwan’s Iconic Skyscraper"). There also lots of items featuring Jiji the black cat from *Kiki’s Delivery Service*.
For **Spirited Away** fans, watch for various items on Jiufen Old Street.


Donguri Republic, the “Totoro Store”
### Cute EasyCards


Swiping an [EasyCard](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/easy-card-taiwan/ "Using EasyCard in Taiwan: Everything You Need to Know") for riding Taipei and Taiwan’s amazing public transportation and paying for other things is an awesome aspect of the Taiwan travel experience.
Why not remember it by getting a super cute (and fully functional) specialty EasyCard? EasyCard designs are **constantly changing**, but often feature cute animals, famous cartoon characters, or symbols of Taiwan.
You can buy these cute EasyCards at any **7-Eleven or FamilyMart** in Taiwan. If you don’t see them on display (often near the till), simply ask the clerk to see their 台灣造型悠遊卡 (Taiwan style EasyCards).
The price ranges from **TWD 100 to 500** (compared to TWD 100 for a normal EasyCard), plus any money you want to load onto it. You ca load them when you purchase them at the convenience store or any any MRT station.
### Cat Wallets, Postcards, & Beckoning Arm Cats


My kids and I are cat freaks, so we’ve bought all kinds of fun cat souvenirs in Taiwan. We have a growing collection of **cat postcards** showing cats in various traditional scenes in Taiwan.
We also often buy little **cat wallets** or change purses as cheap Taiwan souvenirs for friends.
You can buy all kinds of cat-related items at [Houtong Cat Village](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/houtong-cat-village/ "Houtong Cat Village: Taiwan’s Cat-Themed Coal Mining Village") (see image above). [This shop in Houtong](https://maps.app.goo.gl/MFB7mSTRJ9uifLdp8) is the best place in Taiwan to buy ***maneki-neko*** (beckoning/waving arm cats).
In Taipei, you can find the waving arm cats at [this shop in Ximending](https://maps.app.goo.gl/K15VLGAH5vYXHZe99) or in the underground shopping streets below Taipei Main Station.
In Taipei, this [cat café](https://goo.gl/maps/5UbMkt9oNXEsKv5m7) has lots of cat souvenirs (see my guide to the [best cat cafes in Taipei](https://www.nickkembel.com/cat-cafes-in-taipei-taiwan/)).


Waving arm cat in Houtong Cat Village
### Pet Clothing and Backpacks


You will soon notice that people in Taiwan like to take their tiny animals everywhere. They’ll even use **pet strollers**, pet backpacks, and dress their pets up in clothing.
These items can also make fun souvenirs or gifts for you pet-loving friends back at home.
It is common to see a stall selling pet clothing at **night markets** in Taiwan. Find [pet strollers here](https://goo.gl/maps/fj8KiXxDcCcmtxBb9), fancier [pet clothing here](https://goo.gl/maps/51e6wWjZDTvZdnyZ8), [dog goggles here](https://goo.gl/maps/b22XWTEU2NoR5c7J9), and [pet backpacks here](https://goo.gl/maps/14JgTWMRe1tiwahn9). You can also search 寵物商店 (pet store) on GoogleMaps to find pet supplies anywhere in Taiwan.
### Tote Bags


Cute tote bags in Ximending
Tote bags are a very popular and cheap souvenir from Taiwan. You can find all kinds of cute cloth ones in shopping areas like **Ximending**, such as in the above photo.
A more traditional and **vintage / iconic Taiwanese tote bag** is the mesh ones, usually red, green, and blue, as in the below photo. Some Taiwanese jokingly call these “**Taiwan’s LV (Louis Vuitton) bags**“.
You can find these in traditional markets, Dihua Street, and Lai Hao souvenir store in Taipei.


Taiwan’s “LV” bags
### Japanese Import Item


Pokemon instant noodles from Japan
Taiwanese love buying imported Japanese products, especially when they are cheap. This is one reason why the Japanese discount store **Don Don Donki** has become so popular in Taiwan. There you can find imported Japanese snacks, cosmetics, street foods, decorations, Pokemon products, and even sex toys.
There are three Don Don Donki locations in Taipei: [Ximending](https://goo.gl/maps/GTibocF9gVfaJTfF8), [Zhongxiao Xinsheng](https://goo.gl/maps/zKAKzMbemLK5rKV66), and [Nangang](https://goo.gl/maps/Zud6bbbmnbmFQNZ68). There’s also one [in Taichung](https://goo.gl/maps/fH2gcxmbJGG4D2tj9) (see my [Taichung city guide](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taichung-taiwan-guide/ "A Travel Guide to Taichung, Taiwan’s Middle City")).
Another one worth trying is **Hands Tailung**, which is the Taiwanese version of the popular chain Tokyu Hands in Japan. The store also sells a wide variety of (often cute) Japanese kitchenware, bathroom products, toys, household supplies, and more.
There are 15 branches of Hands Tailung in Taiwan – just search the English name or 台隆手創館 on GoogleMaps.
### Stationery Shops


Cute stationery items
Did you know that many tourists head to local stationery stores to buy souvenirs in Taiwan? I didn’t even know that this was a thing until multiple people asked about them in my Facebook group (usually they are from Singapore).
I often call Taiwan’s stationery stores **“everything stores”** because they sell a bit of everything. You can find lots of cheap souvenirs like cute socks, stickers, notepads, pencil cases, lunchboxes, kitchen items, clothing, and more.
One large stationary store you can try is [Many Stationery store](https://maps.app.goo.gl/8C5i6ThmdRZ4e1448). Another cosmetics chain, **Poya**, also has some stationery and a little bit of everything. You can also search 文具產品 on GoogleMaps for other local stationery shops.
### Sanrio, Lego, Pokemon, Disney Products


Sanrio Shop at Taoyuan Airport
You may be thrilled to know that the departures area (controlled area, after you go through immigration) of T2 in [Taoyuan International Airport](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taoyuan-airport-what-to-do/ "Taoyuan Airport Guide: How to Tackle TPE Like a Boss") has a brand new **Sanrio** (Hello Kitty) and **Lego store** – yes, that means they’re both duty free\!
There are also **Disney stores** in both terminals. Note that these shops are not open 24/7, so you won’t be able to shop in them if you have a flight departing super early in the morning or late at night.


Sanrio themed 7-11 in Ximending
There are two **Sanrio-themed 7-Elevens** in Taipei, which also sell some Sanrio products. They are both in Ximending, [here](https://goo.gl/maps/36waRzr8ukmBhpxM6) and [here](https://goo.gl/maps/erGL7AGhNcYjmGWQ6). There’s also a [Sanrio gift store](https://goo.gl/maps/v6r4LY1xraUySgEG7) in Sogo department store.
For all kinds of Pokemon products, including Pokemon stuffies, trading cards, and even Pokemon EasyCards, there’s a [Pokemon Center](https://maps.app.goo.gl/neLmHrtRV5RTD4E36) on the 3rd floor of Shinkong Mitsukoshi department store building A11.


My kids in the Pokemon Center
### Otaku Souvenirs


Get your nerd on
Since we’re on the topic of Japanese characters, let’s get more into it. You can buy all kids of *otaku* (Japanese pop culture) products in Taiwan.
Your first go-to stop for otaku souvenirs should be the **Underground Mall below Taipei Main Station**, specifically the underground shopping street near exit Y17. There are multiple shops there selling Japanese and Chinese toy models, figurines, posters, video games, and so on.
Next, head to **Ximending**, where there are several otaku souvenir shops of interest. [Animate Store](https://goo.gl/maps/AJSoQ7Qem2TWCsZZ6) will satisfy all your **manga/anime** souvenir needs, while Animate Café has a branch [here](https://goo.gl/maps/sKDjp9JQe6gDWow6A) and [here](https://goo.gl/maps/3q4oEFoMVQBJQBii9) nearby.
Try [Idol King](https://goo.gl/maps/gsPpK7BngGuVqPAv8) and [95樂府](https://goo.gl/maps/z38XBhMNLtfpuDMa7) for **T-pop and K-pop** products. Last but definitely not least, [Wan Nian Building](https://goo.gl/maps/ui26EQa7fbzwjKx88) in Ximending is an entire building full of otaku products (it also has a Michelin [beef noodle shop](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/best-beef-noodles-taipei/ "The 6 Best Beef Noodles in Taipei (+ 4 notable mentions)") at B1).
### Din Tai Fung Stuffy


One good way to remember your experience at **Taiwan’s most famous restaurant**, Din Tai Fung, is with one of their soup dumping (*xiaolongbao*) souvenirs.
Most Din Tai Fung branches in Taiwan sell [a variety of souvenirs](https://www.dintaifung.tw/%E5%8C%85%E5%AF%B6%E5%AE%B6%E6%97%8F%E7%B4%80%E5%BF%B5%E5%93%81), including xiaolongbao stuffies, keychains, pins, towels, figurines, mugs, and more.
These are not usually available at Din Tai Fung locations around the world, so you can surprise your friends at home, even if they have a Din Tai Fung branch in their city.
### Magnets & Drink Coasters


I’m currently building up my collection of Taiwan-themed magnets and magnetic drink coasters. Above is just a small sample of them. These are a cheap but fun Taiwan souvenir or gift idea.
You can find location specific magnets at tourist attractions across Taiwan. The airport is also an obvious place to find typical Taiwan tourist magnets, while I found the magnetic drink coasters at the excellent gift shop at **Taipei 101 Observatory**.
### Starbucks Mugs


Starbucks is very popular in Taiwan. There are multiple **Taiwan-focused ceramic mugs** and insulated beverage holders – browse just [a few of them here](https://www.starbucks.com.tw/products/collection/view.jspx?catId=62).
Some Starbucks mugs are city or **attraction-specific** (for example, I have a [Taroko Gorge](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/is-taroko-gorge-open/) one) and some are pan-Taiwan.
Often, you can only get the location specific ones at a single Starbucks branch. Several of the branches on my [list of special Starbucks in Taiwan](https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/special-starbucks-taiwan/) has location-specific mugs.
### Tatung Multi-Functional Cooker


Tatung cookers (大同電鍋) are an **iconic Taiwanese appliance**. You can even see stickers and postcards of them. Every household kitchen in Taiwan has one. They come in a variety of retro (like 70s green or orange) or more modern colors, like pastels.
These amazing kitchen appliances are **super durable and versatile**. They can be used for cooking rice, steaming baozi, making hard boiled eggs, and heating up food just like a microwave. We have one in our kitchen in Canada (see image above). Not only does it look cool, but we use it pretty much every day\!
While this appliance is a little big and heavy, you should have no problem checking it in for your flight. You can buy these at any **Tatung 3C appliance stores** in Taipei or other cities in Taiwan, for example [here](https://goo.gl/maps/WJUhSGtARqTzMSDc8) and [here](https://goo.gl/maps/M2ombXqGrZ1ousNS8), or at genera appliance stores like 全國電子.

Hi! Thank you for sharing this post. I’ll be travelling to Taiwan next month and I’m a stamp collector. How many days/hours does it take for the customized stamp to be done? Thank you for the insight.

Most shops can make one is a few hours if they are not busy. If they are busier, it might take 1-2 days.

Love this list – super helpful! Definitely interested in some Din Tai Fung souvenirs! Question – do you know if they sell t-shirts too? I looked at the link and it doesn’t appear they do but thought I would check 🙂

I’m afraid i didn’t see any last time I went, but I also didn’t specifically ask or check for them, so it’s worth taking look\!

Hi! I’m in Taipei currently and wanted to buy some edible souvenirs. Where would be the best place to find them?

You can find stalls at Shilin Night Market and Raohe Night Market selling boxed snacks. Or cheaper ones at any supermarket. Also try brand name bakeries for “famous” ones, like SunnyHills, Ruyi Sunny Cake, or Sunmerry. Last but not least, the airport duty freee shops have tons, but they will be more expensive than in the city.

Hi there, I think Poya is a cosmetic beauty store, not a stationaru store. ‘Many’ is an amazing stationary store.

Oh and also some Taiwanese families burn incense daily at their ‘home temples’, morning and evening ritual, 3 sticks every time, two in the house and one at the exit.

My favorite thing is to shop for stationery items!! The best place is 光南大批發 since I believe they do wholesale prices. But also cannot miss checking out any 誠品書局 eslite bookstores. Stationery heaven! My kids also bought English name stamps for their friends where they could pick a cartoon character and their personalized names from a stall we found in 西門町, it was a hit! I just love reading your blog to gather ideas for the future.

My family collects masks when we travel abroad. For example, we have a Venetian mask from Italy, a Māori mask from New Zealand, and a vejigante mask from Puerto Rico. Can you suggest a good spot in Taiwan to purchase a mask that would be representative of the country?

I can’t think of anything off the top of my head, because there are not many situations when Taiwanese wear masks. Even in costumed performances like Taiwanese opera they often have painted faces but not usually masks. This may be a little different than you imagined, but why not get a respiratory mask with cute designs on it? This is highly representative of Taiwan, as the country did so well during COVID thanks to near universal mask wearing, and many people still wear them today. You can find some with cute designs, Taiwan flags, etc. Watch for them in souvenir shops, convenience stores, tourist attractions, or local household goods stores like Poya.

Thanks for sharing! Traveling to Taiwan next year with my daughter and granddaughter. I’m half Taiwanese and haven’t been there since I was 17, 40 years ago! Definitely need some help finding all the best things to do and see. You’ll be a great reference for us\!

Many thanks for an exhaustive souvenirs list. Expecting to fly to Taiwan in the next few days for a conference, at least I now have an idea of what I can bring back home as a memory. Big up to your informative page.

Yes, it’s easy to send them from any post office. They have various box sizes available and slow or fast options.

Love your articles! Do you have any suggestions for foodie souvenirs like pastes, concentrates, mixing powders etc for iconic dishes? Maybe a brand-name bubble tea powder and pearls or something? Maybe I’m just making things up haha

My family’s favorite instant noodles is 維力炸醬麵 (a very iconic one available in every 711). The little packet of paste is so good, so you can actually buy a whole can of that paste in grocery stores. Read more about it in my Taiwan snack souvenirs guide: <https://www.taiwanobsessed.com/taiwan-snacks-food-souvenirs/#Instant_Noodles> My family also loves Taiwan’s white pepper or especially pepper salt powder (椒鹽粉). The latter is a little like Chinese 5 spice powder. It has white pepper, salt, and some other spices. Street food vendors put it on many things, like fried foods, fish, soups, etc. You can even buy it at 711.

Hi Nick, do you know where to buy a nice set of chopsticks in Taipei? I would love to bring home some special wooden chopsticks as a souvenir.

They are surprisingly not easy to find. Could you please join my Facebook group “Taiwan Travel Planning” and ask there, as I’m sure the group members will have some recommendations.

I had a set of souvenir bone China plates that my family collected from the 1970s, when we were stationed with the U.S. Air Force at CCK. The set was destroyed during a recent move from one household to another, and I would like to find a replacement. The plates read: “Memories From Taiwan” on its border and the Taiwanese flag in the center. Does anyone know how, where, or if this family memento could be replaced? Thank you.
