The history and traditions of Taiwan are often concealed in the most out-of-the-way and least expected places. Examples are provided by old family businesses and shops which still thrive today despite the progress of modern times.
有時也不僅因為產品的本身或經營的作風，而是它所代表的歲月與歷史，經常散發著可親的古意。台灣現存的百年老店之中，有些已日漸沒落；有些則根基日深、業務日隆，好比一棵百年大樹，經過千萬個時日的歷練，益發長得枝繁葉茂，大有可觀。
