7 days in Taipei Itinerary

Situated in a basin between two mountain ranges, Taipei appeals to tourists with its blend of Asian cultures, living side by side amidst Japanese-era mansions and Taoist temples.

For shopping fun, head to Taipei 101 or Dihua Street. Get a sense of the local culture at Ximending and Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street). Venture out of the city with trips to WuLaoKeng (in Su'ao), Dongshan River Forest Park (in Dongshan) and Wulai (in Wulai). There's still lots to do: take in the spiritual surroundings of Guandu Temple (Kuantu Temple), take in the dramatic scenery at Wufengchi Waterfall, examine the collection at Miniatures Museum of Taipei, and contemplate the long history of Taipei Confucius Temple.
