8 days in Taipei Itinerary

Situated in a basin between two mountain ranges, Taipei appeals to tourists with its blend of Asian cultures, living side by side amidst Japanese-era mansions and Taoist temples.

Explore Taipei's surroundings by going to Danshuei (in Tamsui), Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street) (in Ruifang) and National Taiwan University of Arts (in Banqiao). Spend the 16th (Sat) exploring nature at Yangmingshan National Park. There's lots more to do: appreciate the history behind Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, wander the streets of Ximending, don't miss a visit to National Dr. Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall, and witness a stunning natural landmark at Beitou Hot Spring.
