About this audio guide
This guide to Tamsui Fisherman's Wharf in Taipei starts on Valentine's Day 2003, when engineers switched on a curved white bridge over an old fishing harbor for the first time. You'll hear why its mast-like design nods to the port's working fishing boats, and how the harbor was rebuilt around the old piers with restaurants and hotels. It's a fixture of local romance and TV dramas that film crews keep returning to.
