Reminisce the Century-old Stores Lin-fu-zhen Store and Qian-yuan Pharmacy on Dihua Street

Publication date: 2013
Author: Chen Qiu-jin |Staff member of the Archives of Institute of Taiwan History

The first image of Dihua Street in Da-tong district, Taipei is an old street full of Chinese medicine shops, dried goods stores and fabric stores. Reminiscing the development of Dihua Street, it is located in an area called “Dadaocheng” which became a street in 19th Century. Foreign companies came to Tamsui and built their career after Tamsui Customs Wharf was established in 1860. The trading of tea activated the commercial developments in Dadaocheng area. In the end of the 19th Century, Dadaocheng became the trading hub in northern Taiwan.

To extend our vast research resources to southern Taiwan, the Humanities and Social Sciences Research Base at Academia Sinica South Campus has established a "Digital Library and Archive." This facility now provides access to digital resources from both the institute's library and humanities archive, eliminating the need for residents of central and southern Taiwan to travel all the way to Nangang, Taipei to access information.

The "Taiwan Archival Information System," which was originally restricted to on-site viewing at our Nangang Campus, is now also accessible at the digital library and archive in the South Campus. This database houses a diverse collection of Taiwan's folk documents, personal and family archives, and records from public and private institutions accumulated over the years. We welcome everyone to take advantage of these resources conveniently located nearby.
