Dongmen
Go on an endless journey
Banana Dongmen was a backpacking hostel. Now, it’s transformed into a co-living apartment that still has that care-free hostel vibe. Banana Dongmen is located in the center of Taipei, and yet it’s still easy to reach nature in Da’an park. You can also enjoy the urban scenery of Taipei 101, and some cultural events in the C.K.S Memorial Hall.

This building has five floors, and 44 bedrooms are between 2F to 4F. The common area is on the top floor. The more you go up, the more lively you feel.
The original old building's cement texture and broken junctions are deliberately preserved, and curved curves are added from time to time for decoration; corridors, stairwells, and public areas are also placed with artwork or colorful acrylic signs, as well as plants and Plastic ornaments.
Under the industrial style decoration design, modern and fashionable elements are added to create a living environment that is both relaxing and worth exploring.
The Banana Headquarters, which is also the Banana Civic Activity Center, used to be a commercial studio. Part of the space, such as the large blank background wall, was reserved and transformed into a more functional field.
Banana friends can apply for lease to use the venue, or come here to participate in various activities. It is the center of the banana friends community.
There is a wide rooftop suitable for gatherings, and lectures and courses can also be held indoors, which is a rare paradise in a crowded urban area. Come live with us in the secret little garden in Taipei!
