It was called “Dajing Street” in the Qing period, and it keeps red-brick Hokkien houses and facades from the Japanese occupation period. The Four-Eyed Well is an old well whose top has four drawing holes, and it still has water. Qianyi Hall, a Chinese herbal medicine shop with a century of history, is known for its medicinal herbal tea eggs. The street is short and can be walked in 20 to 30 minutes.
