Taipei: Fresh fruit

Best edible souvenirs Taiwan fruits

Pineapple cakes may be one of the most popular Taipei souvenirs. But the actual pineapples may be even better.

Taiwan is known for cultivating high-quality fruits -- from guava to mangoes to wax apples.

Tainung No. 17, commonly known as the Golden Diamond Pineapple, is the most popular breed developed in Taiwan. It's thin-skinned, sweet and juicy.

Fruit is often sold in boxes at most of the night markets, making it easy to transport.

Binjiang Market (256 Datong Street, Datong District, Taipei) and Feicuilu Fresh Fruit Market (140 Chengde Road Section 4, Shilin District, Taipei) are two popular destinations for a fruity shopping spree.
