Tour vintage clothing stores and vintage shops in Kaohsiung and Tainan! I actually went there.
In the past, the southern part of Taiwan became a hot topic because of the direct flight. It takes about 2 hours by Shinkansen from Taipei. It's not impossible to make a day trip, but it's recommended to spend two days and one night at your leisure. Tainan is an ancient city with many attractions, and Kaohsiung is a retro port town where renovations are progressing. Especially in Tainan, there are many good second-hand clothing stores. Be aware that many second-hand clothing stores in Kaohsiung are closed on weekdays.
It seems that second-hand fashion isn't that popular in Taiwan, and compared to Japan, the number of stores seems to be smaller, but considering the population, the number of stores is probably sufficient. It seems that second-hand Japanese clothes are popular, and there are many Japanese vintage items from the 80s and 90s. Retro fashion seems to be popular. There was also a second-hand clothing store that had regular vintage items and special items. While buying second-hand clothes from America and Europe, it seems that many of them are also from Japan.
It's easier to get around if you register a share cycle You-Bike. There is no You-Bike in Tainan, so registration for T-Bike is required. Many second-hand clothing stores in Taiwan do not accept credit cards, so be prepared with cash.

Kaohsiung Second-Hand Clothing Stores, Vintage Shops
Kaohsiung is famous for its dragon and tiger pagodas. The warehouse area that runs parallel to the port line is a port town where you can enjoy a stroll along the sea. There are several second-hand clothing stores scattered around the Shinhorie commercial area. There is also Second Street in the suburbs. It's a bit difficult to get around by train alone, so we recommend using a You-Bike together.

Taichung second-hand clothes shop, vintage shop tour! I actually went there.
Taichung is home to historic townscapes and renovation spots such as the Miyahara Eye Clinic. It takes about 1 hour by Shinkansen from Taipei, so a day trip is also possible. There are several second-hand clothing stores in the Sogudo and Ichichu areas for young people, where there are many museums and fashionable shops. It's a bit wide, so we recommend getting around the town by bus or on a shared cycle called "U-Bike".
