A Little Osaka in Taipei? Yes Please!

#taipeiattractions Who would’ve guessed that inside a pharmacy you’d find a mini Japan-themed playland? U虎樂園 is a hidden gem in Ximending that feels like stepping into a kawaii Japanese street market. The stalls are designed like takoyaki shops, izakayas, and even retro bathhouses — but they’re all made for kids! So cute, I didn’t know whether to take photos or pretend to be a shopkeeper. There are tons of colorful food toys, mini stoves, and benches for parents to relax while kids run wild in this fantasy street. It’s clean, well-maintained, and surprisingly spacious for a city spot. Definitely one of the most unexpected finds in Taipei.
