The SPOT-Taipei Film House occupies a western-style building that once served as the residence of the U.S. ambassador. Designated as a grade three historic site in 1997, the white two-story residence is currently managed by the Taiwan Film and Culture Association. The 88-seat cinema at SPOT screens independent art-house films from around the world. Visitors can also enjoy an espresso in the tree-shaded courtyard of the C25 Coffee Shop, taste fine wines at the Sixth Avenue lounge, or browse cinema and city titles at Eslite Bookstore.
