Description

Discover the spirit of Taipei as you begin your journey at Longshan Temple, one of the city’s oldest and most beloved spiritual landmarks. Step through its ornate gates, admire the intricate carvings and colorful roofs, and watch locals light incense and pray to Guanyin, the Goddess of Mercy. Feel the temple’s calm atmosphere wrap around you as you observe traditional rituals and get an authentic glimpse into Taiwan’s living religious culture. Continue to Dihua Street and wander through a historic trading district where old and new Taipei meet. Stroll past Baroque-style facades, duck into tea shops and traditional medicine stores, and sample local snacks as rich aromas of herbs, dried fruits, and roasted nuts fill the air. As you explore the narrow alleys and restored buildings, you’ll sense how generations of merchants helped shape the city’s character. Travel on to Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, an imposing landmark framed by grand plazas and manicured gardens. Walk beneath its soaring archways, climb the broad steps, and take in the striking contrast of white walls and blue-tiled roofs against the sky. As you explore the halls and courtyards, learn about Taiwan’s modern history and capture classic photos of one of Taipei’s most iconic sites. Finish your tour at Taipei 101, the city’s unmistakable skyscraper. Gaze up at its bamboo-inspired form, ride the elevator to the observatory for sweeping views of Taipei’s skyline (optional), or explore the elegant mall filled with designer shops and diverse dining options. Leave with a deeper connection to Taipei—its traditions, its stories, and its ever-changing skyline—feeling that you’ve truly experienced the city from temple courtyard to towering rooftop.
