Sanxia District in New Taipei City, Taiwan, is located in the southwest of the Taipei metropolitan area, and is a representative town of the Greater Taipei area that combines historical heritage with the charm of a mountain town. The most prestigious Sanxia Old Street in the district has a well-preserved cluster of century-old Minnan-style riding buildings, and old businesses such as Grandma's Iron Eggs and Blue Dyeing Shop on Tiezhi Lane in the old street tell the story of the prosperity and marketplace atmosphere of the old days.
