Now most of the camera shop already selling smart phones, a camera shop owner told me, the camera sales drop like 60-70% every year as people prefer smart phone.

No doubt but for a person who's incapable of taking nice photos but enjoy the feel of clicking the shutter... smartphones just don't do it for me. No "feel"
Yup. Most are gone except for a feel old time shops that have their own steady stream of customers.
Anything specific that you're looking for?
Most people's SOP if they don't have a specific go-to shop or buying big ticket item is run a search through Yahoo auction (below) and go to the seller shop to buy.

Of course then there's Syntrend Mall 3rd Floor.
Prices are nothing special but its the defacto showroom for brands to show their stuffs in Taipei. Definitely the place to go if you wanna check how that camera body feels like or how does that bag look like in real life etc.
https://goo.gl/maps/q9t2M1EywSH2I agree, I still prefer my dSLR but I do realize that sometimes I have more fun and enjoy myself more when I'm not lugging around my camera and instead just focus on enjoying the trip/scenery/friends/etc. But then again, when I do bring my camera out and look at the pictures afterwards it gives me this warm and fuzzy feeling inside
But tbh, cameraphones nowadays are really great. These were shot in auto mode on my Note 5. It's not perfect but for something that came out of a phone, most people would be satisfied with the quality. The only edit I did was to remove the number plates.
