Watch Live StreamDaxi Old Street – Taoyuan’s Historic Heart
This 4K UHD live webcam shows Daxi Old Street (大溪老街) in Taoyuan, Taiwan. One of Taoyuan’s oldest settlements, Daxi thrived on trade with China via small boats sailing between Dahan Creek and Tamsui River. During the Japanese Taisho era (1912–1926), Baroque architecture became popular — seen today on Heping Road and Zhongshan Road. These facades blend ornate Baroque details with Southern Chinese Min-Nan symbols (fish, bats for luck), creating a unique aesthetic exclusive to Daxi. The street is always bustling with tourists, preserved old buildings, specialty shops, and food stalls.
