The Taipei Weekend Flower Market i 台北建國假日花市 is a nice visit when you’re in Taipei.

The Taipei Holiday Flower Market is a large weekend flower market located under the Jian Guo Road overpass at the intersection of Xinyi Road. The flower market connects to the weekend Jade Market at one end which makes it a very long Taiwan style market for visitors and locals alike.

Even if you are not in the market for flowers, the Taipei Flower Market is a nice place to browse through to admire all the colorful varieties and arrangements of Asian flowers.

The flower market opens at 9:00am and runs until 5-6 pm. It is only open on Saturday and Sunday.
