Hotel Stays & Getaways
Luxury Taipei Escape: 1 Night Stay Inc Breakfast
With no shortage of ancient temples, Taipei is a captivating city that will fascinate any tourist hoping to understand and explore traditional Buddhist and Taoist culture. But Taiwan's capital is also a bustling city, and its shopping neighbourhoods and modern buildings should be a part of any itinerary.
Fun Ximending remains the undefeated area for retail therapy. Known for its endless shopping streets, it is possible to spend days exploring its many shops and stalls. The area is also home to the Red House, a red-brick heritage building that dates back to 1908. Unmistakable amongst modern Ximending, it is one of Taipei's must-see architectural landmarks.
After a day of shopping, the city's famous night markets will bring even the most exhausted shopper back to life. The Shilin Night Market is the biggest in Taiwan and the gastronomic options are too many to try in one visit. Classic scallion pancakes and sticky rice sausage are amongst the two most popular dishes, while adventurous eaters will not want to miss out on famous Taiwan's stinky tofu.
Finally, no visit to Taipei is complete without an excursion to Taipei 101, the world's tallest building until 2010. A soaring skyscraper, it is a city icon known for its unusual shape, said to be inspired by traditional architectural elements like pagodas and bamboo constructions. The unique architecture of Taipei 101, however, is best appreciated from nearby Elephant Mountain, a worthwhile climb that rewards hikers with not only incredible views of the city but fascinating temples amidst its forests.
