At that time most residents lived inside the Taipei city walls, and this area outside the West Gate was their main place for leisure. In its early days cinemas were the main business here, followed by department stores and other entertainment venues. After the Zhonghua Market was completed in 1961, Ximending was for a time the largest commercial and entertainment centre in Taiwan. Landmarks and shopping centres include the rainbow street art, the Red House, the Wannian Commercial Building, a marker of its era, and the American-style Ximending American Street. There is also a wide range of food, including Hong Kong-style, Taiwanese and American dishes, drinks and ice desserts, cafés and bars. After a quiet period in the 1990s, Ximending was transformed, helped by the MRT and government planning, into Taipei's first landmark pedestrian zone. Shops sell food, clothing, everyday goods, entertainment and all kinds of fashion and novelty items. It is a centre of youth culture and street performance, and a place where young people dress up for dates. American Street, beside Wuchang Street, has American-style hip-hop clothing, streetwear and graffiti. Ximending has witnessed history and also leads new pop culture: older people come to reminisce, while fashionably dressed young people show off their style, so two very different ways of life meet here.", "description_ko": "시먼띵이라는 이름은 일본 통치 시기에 생겼어요. 당시 주민 대부분은 타이베이 성벽 안에 살았고, 서문(西門) 밖의 이 일대가 주로 여가를 보내는 곳이었어요. 초기에는 영화관이 가장 큰 사업이었고, 이어서 백화점과 다른 오락 시설이 들어섰어요. 1961년 중화 상가(中華商場)가 완공된 뒤 시먼띵은 한때 대만 최대의 상업·오락 중심지였어요. 랜드마크와 상가로는 무지개 거리 아트, 시먼 훙러우(西門紅樓), 한 시대를 상징하는 완녠 상업빌딩(萬年商業大樓), 미국풍의 시먼띵 미국 거리(美國街)가 있어요. 홍콩식, 대만식, 미국식 요리, 음료와 빙수, 카페, 바 등 먹을거리도 다양해요. 1990년대에 한동안 침체했지만, MRT 개통과 정부 계획에 힘입어 타이베이 최초의 상징적인 보행자 거리로 바뀌었어요. 음식, 옷, 생활용품, 놀거리, 온갖 유행 상품과 신기한 물건을 팔아요. 청소년 문화와 거리 공연의 중심지이고, 젊은이들이 차려입고 데이트하는 곳이기도 해요. 우창제 옆의 미국 거리에는 미국풍 힙합 옷, 개성 있는 스트리트 패션, 그라피티가 있어요. 시먼띵은 역사를 지켜봐 왔고, 새로운 대중문화를 이끄는 곳이기도 해요. 나이 든 사람들은 옛 추억을 떠올리러 오고, 유행하는 옷차림의 젊은이들은 저마다 멋을 뽐내요. 전혀 다른 두 생활 방식이 이곳에서 만나요.", "description_ja": "西門町という名は、日本統治時代に由来します。当時、住民の多くは台北城内に住んでおり、西門の外のこの地域が主な憩いの場でした。初期には映画館が主な商業で、その後、百貨店やその他の娯楽施設が次々に入りました。1961年に中華商場が完成すると、西門町は一時、台湾最大の商業と娯楽の中心地となりました。主なランドマークや商業施設には、レインボーの路面アート、西門紅樓、時代の象徴である萬年商業大樓、アメリカ風の西門町美國街などがあります。香港料理、台湾料理、アメリカ料理、ドリンクや冷たい甘味、カフェ、バーなど、さまざまな食べ物もそろっています。1990年代の低迷を経て、MRTと政府の計画によって、西門町は台北初の象徴的な歩行者天国に生まれ変わりました。食べ物、衣類、日用品、遊ぶもの、流行のファッションや珍しい商品まで、あらゆるものがそろいます。若者文化とストリートパフォーマンスが集まる場所であり、若者がおしゃれをしてデートする場所でもあります。武昌街の横の美國街には、アメリカ風のヒップホップの服や個性的な装い、グラフィティがあり、台北に異国の彩りを添えています。西門町は歴史を見てきた場所であると同時に、新しい世代のポップカルチャーを引っ張る場所でもあります。昔を懐かしむ年配の人たちが訪れる一方で、流行の服を着た若い世代が装いを競い合い、まったく異なる2つの暮らし方がここで交わっています。", "sources": [ "交通部觀光署 觀光資訊資料庫 (政府資料開放授權條款-第1版)", "Wikidata (CC0)" ], "address_ja": "萬華區", "access_ja": null, "admission_ja": null, "telephone": "(02)23754205", "photo": { "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/img/sights/ximending.webp", "thumb": "https://dealtaipei.com/img/sights/ximending-sm.webp", "credit": { "licence": "CC BY-SA 2.0", "licenceUrl": "https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0", "artist": "Volksabstimmung", "page": "https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ximending_rainbow_crossing_201910.jpg", "width": 4542, "height": 3028, "photo": true } }, "exits_naming_it": [], "areas": [], "nearby_sights": [ { "id": "tpe-eb12290a", "slug": "boai-road-and-hankou-street-camera-shops", "name": "Bo'ai Road and Hankou Street camera shops", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/boai-road-and-hankou-street-camera-shops", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 398 }, { "id": "tpe-35109e9a", "slug": "yuanling-street-shoe-shops", "name": "Yuanling Street shoe shops", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/yuanling-street-shoe-shops", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 555 }, { "id": "tpe-4e1f3d6b", "slug": "chongqing-south-road-bookshops", "name": "Chongqing South Road bookshops", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/chongqing-south-road-bookshops", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 573 }, { "id": "tpe-845a3185", "slug": "taipei-underground-mall", "name": "Taipei Underground Mall", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/taipei-underground-mall", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 847 }, { "id": "tpe-7347fb8b", "slug": "mengjia-old-street-taipeis-first-street", "name": "Mengjia Old Street (Taipei's First Street)", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/mengjia-old-street-taipeis-first-street", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 855 }, { "id": "tpe-aec3e4dc", "slug": "houzhan-shopping-district", "name": "Houzhan Shopping District", "url": "https://dealtaipei.com/sight/houzhan-shopping-district", "category": "shopping-district", "straight_line_m": 887 } ] }, "source": { "listings": "交通部觀光署 觀光資訊資料庫 景點 (data.gov.tw 7777), 政府資料開放授權條款-第1版: names, towns, addresses, descriptions, phones, positions.
