How Did I Get There: Bus 257 (towards Nangang Garden Community 5) from Baoqing Rd, opposite Ximen MRT
After placing our luggages at our airbnb, we took a bus towards Huashan 1914 Creative Park to unleash our inner Arts Business Manager.
Do note that while most of their exhibitions are free entry, some are not.
✔/ ✘ Temporary Exhibitions = Permanent Curiosity
The place itself consist of several exhibitions, most which does not seem to be permanent. This would mean that there will be new exhibitions/ events at different point of time so perhaps a reason to revisit the place?
While we were there, one of the more popular events was the Pinkholic Pop-Up Store, featuring Hello Kitty and other Sanrio characters and many Instagrammable backdrops.
I did not take enough cute photos to do this place its justice but head over to this post by GirlStyle Singapore for more insights!
✔ Souvenirs available
The place is filled with stores selling handmade items, allowing local artists to emerge and providing them with sustainability somehow through these support.
✔ Cafés and restaurants available
Whether you came with an empty stomach or you got tired from exploring the creative park, there are several cafés and restaurants. Ranging from Japanese cuisines, to hipster cafés and soft serve ice cream, they do offer quite a lot.
While this kind of art events/ exhibitions may not appeal to some, I guess it was an interesting place as you get to see the art style of the locals. It was hard to support their works as most were relatively expensive (I mean - they were handmade afterall). Nonetheless, we got our art fix for this trip and then went on for a late lunch.
