The Guanghwa Digital Plaza in Taipei City is a must visit if you are shopping for any type of electronic or computer gadget imaginable. The area is a collection of small alleys and a large 5 story building full of individual vendors.
The Guanghua Market for computers and electronics is a collection of alleys off Ba De Road Section 1.
Getting to Guang Hua Plaza
The market is a short 5 minute walk from the Zhongxiao/Xinsheng MRT Blue Line. There are signs in the MRT station to direct you where to go out of Exit1.
When you exit the station, turn right out of exit 1 (if you’ve exited #2 just head North) and then turn left just up ahead on Xinsheng S. Rd. heading North. You’ll be heading toward Bade Rd. The GuangHwa Digital Plaza is just past Bade Rd. on Civic Blvd.
Check out the map in the MRT station.

Products at The Guanghua Market for Computers and Electronics
The Guang Hua Plaza is 5 floors full of just about everything tech. Visitors can wander around and check out the merchandise. Bargaining for some items is ok. Many shops sell the same items but good shoppers can always find what they need. There is a lot of English spoken.
Cell phone accessories are everywhere.
The first floor is comprised mainly of larger vendors such as Asus, HP, HTC, Samsung, Lenovo, and Acer. You can find deals on laptops and tablet computers here, but don’t buy until you’ve had a chance to explore the other floors.
Continuing on up to the second floor you’ll find loads of shops that sell pc and tablet accessories, as well as cell phones and other accessories. You’ll find hard drives, mother boards, memory, and more on the 2nd floor. Shop around – you’ll find better prices once you dig a bit and check out several shops. I found what I thought was a deal on an Intel SSD drive only to find that same drive in another shop for about NT$1000 less.
