The most populous city in Taiwan, Taipei is a center for tourism in the country, offering visitors plenty to do and see. If you happen to be stopping by, here are some of the things that we recommend you do while you’re there.
Visit the National Palace Museum
If there’s one thing you absolutely must do while you’re in Taipei, it’s visiting the National Palace Museum. With over 70,000 artifacts from Imperial China, there is so much to see and learn, and there are even exhibits for children in case you’re going on a family vacation. Plus, you can get a free daily tour in English.
Enjoy the Hot Springs
One of the most popular activities for tourists in Taipei is visiting the hot springs, which aren’t technically in the city but are very accessible. They’re affordable to visit and a great way to relax while in a hectic, busy city.
See the View from Taipei 101
If you like breathtaking views, then you have to visit Taipei 101, one of the tallest buildings in the world with the world’s fastest elevator that can take you up to a viewing deck on the 89th floor where you’ll get to see the whole city sprawled out before you.
