The Shenkeng Old Street is an old street in Shenkeng District, New Taipei, Taiwan.
In the 1980s, local residents campaigned against the demolition of the buildings along the street as part of the proposed road widening and redevelopment project. In 2010, a large-scale restoration project began. The management committee of the old street was established in 2014. In 2013, a regulation regulating the management of the old streets in New Taipei was enacted, enabling the committee to collect funds to preserve the heritage buildings of the old street.[1]
The street is famous for its tofu-related food, such as tofu gourmet, tofu snacks and tofu popsicle from various types of tofu.[2] [3]
The street is accessible by taxi from Muzha Station of Taipei Metro.[4]
