Top 7 Things to do in Taipei, TAIWAN
Taipei unexpectedly turned out to be one of our favourite destinations in Asia. Some of the places on this list were absolutely magical. This Taiwan series is the last of our videos during our time overseas before we had to scramble to get back into NZ amidst all the travel restrictions that were popping up daily.
If you're planning a trip to Taiwan and Taipei, we hope you'll find our Top Things to do in Taipei travel guide handy. There are a bunch of must see places in Taipei, these were our faves.
Starting things off we head over to Daan Forest Park, the largest park in Taipei. Peter had an amazing close encounter with a parrot which he befriended. We were pleasantly surprised by the wildlife at Daan Park. Definitely a must visit for nature lovers.
Daan Forest Park
Address: No. 1號, Section 2, Xinsheng South Road, Da’an District, Taipei City, Taiwan 106
Next up we head to a famous town called Shifen. Shifen is best known for two things, Shifen Waterfall and Shifen Old Street. Shifen waterfall is Taiwan's broadest waterfall. It's also known as Little Niagara of Taiwan, while Shifen Old Street is where sky lanterns get released (which we opted not to do for environmental reasons). While at Shifen Old Street, there's also nice scenery, snacks and gift shops to enjoy.
Shifen Waterfall and Shifen Old Street are however very close to one another though and they were both part of our transportation package together with Jiufen.
Shifen Waterfall
Address: 226, Taiwan, New Taipei City, Pingxi District, 乾坑10號
Shifen Old Street
Address: 226, Taiwan, New Taipei City, Pingxi District
After visiting Shifen, we headed over to one of the most magical places we've ever been - Jiufen. If you love the Japanese animated movie Spirited Away you will love Jiufen because there is definitely something special about this village that really resembles the famous Studio Ghilbi anime.
Jiufen is commonly misconceived to be the inspiration for the town and bathhouse in Hayao Miyazaki's Spirited Away, however Miyazaki has said it wasn't but the place really does bear a resemblance and gives you the Spirited Away vibes. It's no wonder so many people flock to Jiufen, Taiwan and have dubbed it the Real Life Spirited Away.
Jiufen
Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan 224
To get to these places you can take public transport, however we found a shuttle bus option offered by Klook which made getting to Shifen and Jiufen much more convenient and relaxing.
Another must do activity when you're in Taipei or Taiwan, is visit a Taiwanese night market. There are a ton of nightmarkets to visit in Taipei, but for this video we went to Tonghua night market. It's also known as Linjiang night market. Tonghua is a much more local night market than others in Taipei so it's less crowded compared to the far more popular tourist night markets such as Shilin and Raohe. Nothing beats a hot lu rou fan on a cool night and the smell of the stinky tofu will either repel or make you salivate.
Tonghua / Linjiang Night Market
Address: Alley 1, Lane 40, Linjiang Street, Da’an District, Taipei City, Taiwan 106
Hours: 6pm–midnight
Often hailed as one of the top must visit attractions of Taipei, is the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall (CSK Memorial Hall) is the most prominent historical landmark in Taiwan. At the complex, you'll also see the Liberty Arches as well as the National Concert Hall and National Theatre.
Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall
Address: No. 21號, Zhongshan South Road, Zhongzheng District, Taipei City, Taiwan 100
Hours: Monday - Sunday 9am–6pm
Did you know that many of the treasures from the Forbidden Palace are actually located in Taipei, Taiwan? Check them out at the National Palace Museum. Definitely another popular must visit attraction in Taipei.
National Palace Museum
Address: No. 221, Sec 2, Zhi Shan Rd, Shilin District, Taipei City, Taiwan 111
Hours: Monday - Sunday 8:30am–9pm
Finally for a majestic view of Taipai city and Taipei 101 you can take a brisk hike up Elephant Mountain, also known as Xiangshan.
Elephant Mountain is located in Xinyi District, Taipei, Taiwan.

FAQs
========================================
Q: How long did it take?
A: My trip was 14 days.
Q: Which airport should I arrive at?
A: Having travelled from the other side of the globe, I arrived at Taoyuan International Airport in Taipei. If travelling from Australia or Asia, there may be connecting flights to Kaohsiung International Airport on the south-west coast of Taiwan.
Q: How much did it cost?
A: You can see a cost breakdown of my trip at 12:37
Q: How did you pay for things or get local currency?
A: I just take money out from an ATM using my debit card. It has a small international transaction fee, but it’s minuscule if you only do it once or twice. You may be able to order foreign currency at better rates, but it’s not something I personally bothered with.
Q: Is it easy to find petrol stations?
A: Yes, you'll find one pretty much everywhere, including remote areas in the mountains! I always went with caution and ensured I had a full tank before entering remote areas, however to my shock, there were petrol stations, and even 7 Eleven stores in remote mountains! Just to be safe, I would highly recommend getting a full tank of petrol before going to the mountains.
Q: Which month did you go?
A: I visited mid November to early December and spent 14 days there.

Important note about these videos:
I work alone on these videos in my own free time, and each video takes hours to complete, from searching for popular destinations, coming up with a schedule, to filming, editing the videos, and thumbnail creation.
I do all this because I personally have a passion for exploration, learning new cultures and experiencing new things I have never felt or seen before. My perspective on taking holidays and enjoying them to the fullest I can comes first, with the video creations second. I follow this because the whole point of a holiday is to experience things first hand, enjoy it and have fun. I hope that in creating these videos, these can encourage others to explore our wonderful planet and everything it has to offer, while providing some assistance in choosing where to go on holiday, with helpful tips that I learned from my trip.

Taiwan ???????? - An Underrated Travel Destination and Why You SHOULD Visit! | Taiwan Travel Guide
Taiwan is an island nation deeply rooted with Chinese culture and heritage. In present day, it is in a geopolitical struggle to maintain its democracy from being part of China. Despite its small size, Taiwan has a dynamic and resilient society, with a thriving democracy and a strong commitment to environmental sustainability. The island's political status is a subject of ongoing debate, with China claiming Taiwan as part of its territory, while Taiwan operates as a separate, self-governing entity.
It was a country I never really intended to visit but have since fallen in love with the people, the landscape, the food, and the customs.
In this video, I travel around Taiwan and showcase a few places to go and what it's like visiting this small island nation.

A rock that resembles a person's head with a crown on top is one of the magnificent formations you can see at Yehliu Geopark. An oddly shaped rock formation called the Ice Cream Rock Formation is shaped like an ice cream cone.
Kaohsiung Lantern Festival: You may enjoy a lavish display of vibrant lanterns, breathtaking firework displays, and spellbinding performances at the Kaohsiung Lantern Festival. The Kaohsiung Lantern Festival is not only a breathtaking sight to see, but it is also rich with vivid culture. The event is a must-see because of the enormous size of the lanterns, which always have unique designs based on traditional themes.
Alishan National Scenic Area: This natural paradise is packed with unique attractions, including incredible mountains, dense forests, and winding rivers. A visit to the Alishan National Scenic Area features a few must-see spots like Chukou Street, Chiayi Round House, Sun Moon Lake, Fencihu Old Street, and more.
Beitou Hot Springs: These hot spring spas are a great place to relax, socialize, and take in a piece of local culture. The water is rich in minerals such as sulfur, calcium, sodium, and magnesium, so it's fun to soak in and beneficial for your skin.
Kinmen Islands: The Kinmen Islands lie just off the coast of mainland China and can be reached by ferry from Xiamen in the Fujian Province. The islands are a haven packed with historical sites, like traditional houses built during the Qing Dynasty and abandoned military bunkers used to defend against invasion during the Chinese Civil War.
Whether you're looking for a bit of history, culture, nature, or modern entertainment, Taiwan is an island paradise that promises to give you some of the best memories that will last forever.
