21 Things to do in Kaohsiung, Taiwan

These are my carefully selected 21 best things to do in Kaohsiung, the most underrated city in Asia. I included gems like Cijin Boulevard, Old Taiwan Restaurant, 85 Sky Tower, the ICE BOWL, chocolate chicken at Ruifeng Night Market and the Brickyard for the best nightlife of Kaohsiung. Subscribe to my channel ► for weekly videos!

I had no expectations before driving down to Kaohsiung. This massive city on the southern tip of Taiwan is a tropical paradise with tons of fun things to do, delicious foods to eat and mingle with its friendly locals. After you watch my video I guarantee you will put Kaohsiung on your bucket list.

Kaohsiung is best known for the Dragon & Tiger pagodas located at the Lotus pond north of downtown, the most facinating thing is the zigzag pathway which is meant to deflect evil. Do make sure to enter through the dragon's mouth first and exit through the tiger's mouth to obtain good fortune. Afterwards, treat yourself to a massive shaved ice dessert at the Ice Bowl located at Binhua 1st Road.

Kick off the next day with a typical southern Taiwanese breakfast at Dandan Hamburger, famous for it delicious soup burger combo. I stayed at the massive 85 Sky Tower hotel on the 61st floor with mesmerizing views of Kaohsiung.

Cijin Island is located in front of Kaohsiung harbor, the largest harbor of Taiwan at which you can rent an electric buggy and cruise along its beautiful boulevard while making selfie stops at the Rainbow Church, giant sea shell and end your adventure with a lunch at the Windmill Station Sushi Restaurant.

At the Windmill Station Restaurant make sure to order the gigantic chirashi bowl of assorted fish with high-grade uni, unagi and tuna. Make sure to top it off with Kaohsiung waffles! On the way back to the Cijin Ferry, make stops at the Cijin dried fish market, Cihou fort for the best skyline view of Kaohsiung and Mazu shrine.

During the evening take the subway to Formosa Boulevard Station to admire world's largest glass art installation consisting of 4500 glass panels.

For night markets check out Ruifeng Night Market located just north of downtown Kaohsiung where you must try the Gua Bao with juicy pork belly, chicken on a stick stuffed with sticky rice and bizarre chocolate chicken for the ultimate night market experience.

To really venture out, go to OLD TAIWAN restaurant which is a themed 1950's Taiwanese restaurant with incredibly local dishes. The dishes truly tasted like they were cooked with love by grandma Taiwan, a great delicious alternative to night markets.

Kaohsiung has a fun and vibrant nightlife, for an epic night out check out bars; Black Dog, an expat bar and Brickyard for their underground dance off parties, foosball tables, pool tables and great local atmosphere. The best nightclubs in town are Muse Kaohsiung and LAMP Disco which often hosts all-you-can-drink parties with a young local crowd. Not much English is spoken at these nightclubs so be aware.

In conclusion, Kaohsiung made it to my Top 5 list of favorite cities in Asia. Most likely due to not having any expectations and being blown away by the tropical climate, delicious local dishes, friendly locals and fantastic parties. Kaohsiung, I shall return in the near future!

Come discover Kaohsiung, we went to Southern Taiwan for the first time and in the port city of Kaohsiung and share the best things to in Kaohsiung. We had some amazing Taiwanese street food and went to one of their best night markets!

Taiwan’s busiest harbour. Located in southwestern Taiwan, this city boasts scenic seaside spots, magnificent mountain views, and a captivating culture. In our last video we began our journey in the harbour side of Kaohsiung, today we explore more of Kaohsiung by visiting Taiwan’s largest mall, Dream Mall and explore the famous Lotus Lake, where the Dragon and Tiger Pagodas are said to give visitors good luck. At the lake, honour the Goddess of Mercy and God of War, and marvel at the massive statue of the Mysterious Warrior, Xuan Wu. Round the day off with a jaunt to the Ruifeng night market Kaohsiung. When we arrived in Taiwan and did a search on what to see and do - the number one thing was to try as much Taiwanese street food as possible at the night markets here in Kaohsiung. Whether you’re looking to pay your respects to the gods or taste some amazing Taiwanese street food on the buzzing night market, Kaohsiung is not to be missed on your trip when you travel to Taiwan.

Where we stayed in Kaohsiung: (superior double room with sea view, great location).

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.

I went to Taiwan with no major expectations but let me tell you, the country, people, food and nature truly blew me away and now I understand why people consider it a hidden gem in Asia. I started my Taiwan adventure in Taipei, often called the food capital of Asia for its wide assortment of cuisines and unique themed restaurants including the prawn fishing restaurant where you'll be able to capture your own dinner but also the toilet restaurant where you can eat beef curry out of a toilet bowl.

The best way to start your Taipei adventure is with an epic Taiwanese breakfast at Fu Hang Soy Milk, the most popular joint in town but do come early, lineups can grow very large. I ordered the deep-fried bread stick, egg pancake and a delicious cold soy milk soup. There is a good reason why locals wait hours in line to get this stuff.

One of the most incredible experiences in Taipei was getting a knife massage by knife massage practitioners who require to be vegetarian and meditate daily but don't worry the cleavers used are blunt, it is quite satisfying getting hammered by blunt metal to a point where I fell asleep from relaxation.

For ancient temples in Taipei, visit the breathtaking Longshan temple, also known as 'the meeting place of the gods' were you can witness daily rituals, offerings and many locals praying to the many deities.

One of the strangest foods I tried were the fermented duck eggs which were traditionally made by a mixture of lime, salt and ash turning the egg white base into a gelatin texture and the egg yolk green from fermentation, to my surprise, this was a delicious snack.

As a giant lover of seafood, the Addiction Aquatic Development fish market in Taipei is the ultimate destination. A high-end fish market with some of the best sashimi, grilled eel and other fish products I had ever tasted, a great spot for lunch!

Make sure to purchase yourself a SIM card as well at the airport to stay connected at all times!

In conclusion, Taipei left a lasting impression on me to such an extent that I returned to Taipei a second time in less than a month time to record even more incredible footage of this mesmerizing city. If you are considering of visiting Asia, do NOT skip Taiwan.

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.

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.

First Thoughts on Taiwan | Best Things to do in Kaohsiung

To our surprise we have arrived in Taiwan and our first spot is the southern coastal city of Kaohsiung. These are our first thoughts on this country!

During our city tour of Kaohsiung we have come across so many friendly locals who have helped us see the best things in the city. First stop we went to have a traditional Taiwanese breakfast at Xing Long Ju before making our way to the lotus pond to see the Dragon and Tiger pagodas.

On the way back to our hotel we went to Cijin island where we hired these electric very cool looking bikes to go around the island - heading up the lighthouse and down to the beach.

The next day we went to the Fo Guang Shan Buddha Museum, had some mango shaved ice and ended our time here at the top of the 85 Sky Tower.
