8 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.

Venture out of the city with trips to Leofoo Village Theme Park (in Guanxi), Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street) (in Ruifang) and Wanli (YehLiu Geopark & Bao'an Temple). Spend the 17th (Fri) exploring nature at Yangmingshan National Park. There's still lots to do: see the interesting displays at National Palace Museum, discover the deep blue sea with MyTaiwanTour Travel Services, stop by Ximending, and admire the sheer force of Shifen Waterfall.
