Bo-Pi Liao is close to the intersection of Kangding Road and Guanzhou Street, an area that once was called “Charcoal City” because of being a center for charcoal sales. On the busy commercial streets, many exquisite western-style houses could be found. The street was formed approximately in 1850, during the Qing period. From the Qing period to today, traces of the spatial features and city texture from its early development can still be seen. Because the hundreds-meter long street was reserved for the campus of Lao-Song elementary in the Japanese Rule Era, and rebuilding as well as expansion were prohibited, the street has been kept intact accidently. The Education Department of Taipei City Government established a Bo-Pi Liao conservation and reutilization operating team in August of 2003, named "Heritage and Culture Education Center of Taipei City (HCEC)." In 2004, the east part of the street was turned into a historic district. Within Bo-Pi Liao historic district, there are the level-3 historical site Longshan Temple, Qingshang Gong, Qingshui Temple, and the famous Snake Alley, all of which any visitor to Wanhua should not miss. Also, the distance between each site is not far, and one can easily reach all the sites by foot, a feature that brings the district visitors and affluence.
