 Danburg Murmur: Longshan Temple and Snake Alley
We ended up at the latter because I could not remember how far down Roosevelt Road we had have needed to travel to find the former, and because the number fifteen bus conveniently stopped right at Taipei Main Station.
While larger than many other temples I have seen around Taipei (or Hong Kong for that matter), this one didn’t particularly impress me. In fact, I liked 天后宮 near Ximen much better, mostly because the architects had used a smaller space much more cleverly.
My Lonely Planet guidebook also describes nearby Snake Alley as “Taipei’s most famous night market,” and that it “needs to be seen.” Somebody needs to go see it, I guess, because I don’t know how much longer this zone can stay in business given what I saw there on an average weeknight.
