Description

Be collected from your accommodation and head to the first stop of the day, Dalongdong Baoan Temple. Explore this beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Listed site, built in 1742, and learn about the fascinating story of its transformation from a wooden shrine to the masterpiece it is today. Next, visit the National Palace Museum, home to an extensive collection of Chinese artifacts and artworks showcasing Taiwan’s rich cultural heritage. Afterwards, head to the oldest commercial street in Taipei, Dihua Street, where you can find architecture dating back to the 1850s. Wander down the street and feel immersed in the bustling vibrancy of the atmosphere as the locals go about their busy day. Visit the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, which was erected in honor of Taiwan’s former president Generalissimo, who founded modern Taiwan after losing the Chinese Civil War. Then, take a bow of honor to the fallen soldiers of the war at the National Revolutionary Martyrs’ Shrine, which is also home to an elaborate array of Chinese architecture. Finally, marvel at the modern architecture of Taipei 101, once the tallest building in the world. Here, you can choose to journey up to the stunning observation deck or enjoy a hike on the Elephant Mountain Trail for breathtaking cityscape views.
