The Xinyi District is Taipei's commercial and entertainment centre — a planned development of shopping malls, department stores, and nightlife venues surrounding Taipei 101 that represents modern Taiwan's commercial ambition. The district contains the Taipei 101 Mall (luxury brands in the tower's base), Breeze Center, the ATT 4 Fun complex, and the weekend Xinyi district outdoor markets.
The Xinyi nightlife scene — concentrated in the bars and clubs of the ATT 4 Fun building and the surrounding streets — is where Taipei's young professional class goes after work, and the rooftop bars with views of Taipei 101 (particularly INGE'S and Ce La Vi) provide the most glamorous drinking experience in the city. The contrast between the Xinyi District's glass-and-steel modernity and the traditional temples, night markets, and old streets a few MRT stops away captures the temporal range that makes Taipei one of Asia's most interesting cities to explore.
