Hotel Stays & Getaways
Taipei Premium Getaway for Two: 2 Adults 2 Nights
The bustling, captivating capital of Taiwan, Taipei, has seen its tourist numbers increase year after year in the past decade. Whether going on a shopping spree or looking to explore ancient temples, the city can feel like a playground to even the most demanding traveler.
A great landmark to start any visit to Taipei is the mind-blowing, massive public plaza known as Liberty Square. Two identical pavilions face each other on opposite sides of the square: the National Concert Hall and National Theater. Next to the plaza, the National Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is a colossal wonder made of marble that is impossible to miss. The whole complex feels larger than life and will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on any visitor.
After appreciating Taipei's contemporary architecture, a visit to Longshan Temple in the Wanhua District offers tourists a glimpse into its fascinating past. Originally built in 1773, it features stunning wood carvings and is not just a Buddhist and Taoist place of worship but also pays homage to Chinese folk gods, such as the sea goddess Mazu.
The area is also Taipei's oldest district, and several activities can be planned around a visit to the temple. Those hoping to see more historic landmarks should not miss Qingshan Temple, built in 1854 and a survivor of WW2 bombings. Nearby Herb Alley is a tiny, narrow street filled with herb shops selling traditional Chinese medicines and plants. After a day of sightseeing in the area, nearby Bangka Night Market and Huaxi Street Night Market, also known as Snake Alley, will satisfy not just appetites but curiosity, as sellers feature unique local delicacies.
