The Taipei Fine Arts Museum is a striking geometric building that showcases contemporary Taiwanese and international art. Taipei is not only known for its food but also as an emerging city of the arts, blending old and new, classical and experimental, modern and contemporary. The museum features intimidating creations by local artists such as Baboo, Shu Yuan Wu, and Hui-Chih Hsu.
The Taipei Fine Arts Museum is a wonderful place.
The admission fee is very affordable, and the museum is very well maintained.
The restrooms and overall environment are clean and tidy.
For just a small amount of money, you can enjoy many exhibitions.
The exhibition spaces are spacious, providing a comfortable viewing experience.
Visitors are generally very respectful, so you won’t be disturbed while appreciating the art.
It’s definitely a place worth recommending to everyone.
Please note that photography and video recording are not allowed in some exhibitions.

Fantastic art museum. The exhibits are highly varied between watercolors of colonial Taiwan, an Olafur Eliasson exhibit when we went, and a myriad of modern art — some of it speaking to me and some not so much, which is perfectly normal. The museum building itself is also a wonderful piece of architectural art. Though beware of popular visiting hours like Sunday. This museum is not such a pleasant visit when really packed full of people taking pictures for social media.
Amazing space with lovely staff. They were setting up for the biennial, but since gallery spaces were out of action they put on loads of participatory activities. One lovely woman showed me where to go.
There were calligraphy classes for adults and a wealth of craft activities for kids, making them think about art and the world around them. All free.
The building is stunning, well laid out and accessible.
The cafe is awesome too.
Taipei Fine Arts Museum offers a well-curated selection of contemporary and modern art, with exhibitions that are both thought-provoking and visually engaging. The building itself is spacious and well-designed, making it pleasant to explore. While the permanent collection is not huge, the rotating exhibitions keep the experience fresh. A great spot for art lovers visiting Taipei.
October was free entry and free locker for your bags, museum was limited to the 3rd floor and basement. No complaints for free entry from me. Some art pieces were very intriguing and interactive. Well worth a visit as the new displays will be avafrom Nivember until mid 2026. Team very friendly and helpful.
There was only one (or two) exhibitions when we visited, just on the 3rd floor. The rest of the galleries are closed - maybe transitioning to the new exhibitors. Still, made the most of our visit by enjoying the pieces and taking photos. Would love to come back and experience the place in full.
I didn’t expect a fine arts museum to have a big crowd even on a weekend. It was really nice to see young and old, families and friends visiting the art museum. It was not rowdy and people are well behaved as compared to a random crowd in other context.
While maintaining the standard of fine arts, their collections are well curated to appeal to the general population of excellent quality. Olafur Eliasson and Ng Chiang Huai exhibitions which are really good.
Entrance fee is only a token amount of 30 NTD, about USD1. Suggest to purchase the ticket online to cut the ticketing queue and go in with the QR code.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
A stunning museum that perfectly blends art, architecture, and atmosphere.
The Taipei Fine Arts Museum offers a thoughtful mix of contemporary Taiwanese and international exhibitions — always fresh, inspiring, and beautifully presented.
The space itself is bright, modern, and peaceful — ideal for exploring at your own pace.
A true cultural gem in the heart of Taipei. 🎨✨

The Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei, housed in a historic school building from the early 1900s, is Taiwan's first dedicated contemporary art museum. It showcases innovative and current artwork including visual art, architectural design, fashion, and media technologies from local and international artists. The museum is a popular attraction in Taipei and is located near other notable sites such as Longhsan Temple, Bopiliao Historical Block, Huashan 1914 Creative Park, and Songshan Cultural and Creative Park.
Nice museum, very friendly staff, really cool location. The cafe and shop seem cool too and the ticket prices are quite low - we love some accessibility. Even though most of the currently exhibited works didn't speak to me, I still appreciate this place.

It consist of 2 levels. But do remember to purchase the ticket at the entrance TWD 100 and deposit your bag in the locker for TWD 10. Then you can proceed with your visit.
There is an interactive room for you to contribute your creativity of your ideal bird.
A cute rainy day activity. The exhibits were mostly interactive or stuff you could walk around/through. Which made it more fun. I also went to the fine arts museum and I enjoyed this contemporary art museum much more!
It’s not too busy, so the small interactive exhibits did not feel crowded and I was able to enjoy them more. I colored a bird and got to put it on the wall as part of the exhibit, and they also had a “fake news” sushi art interactive exhibit which was fun !
I appreciated the English translations available for each display. The fine arts museum did not have as extensive of translation options available, so I couldn’t read into each display as much.
Overall, would recommend regardless of a sunny or rainy day.
If you’re looking for some time to kill and live near the Taipei main station, I’d suggest you to come pay a visit, as ticket is not expensive and you only need an hour or so to go through the whole museum. But it’s quite underwhelming compared to other museums in Taipei such as national Taiwan museum and national palace museum.
The Museum of Contemporary Art Taipei (MOCA Taipei), opened in 2001, is Taiwan’s first museum dedicated exclusively to contemporary art. It is housed in a historic red brick building that was originally a Japanese colonial-era elementary school and later Taipei City Hall until 1994. The museum shares its site with a junior high school, making it a unique cultural hub.
The museum itself if quite small. There are only 2 floors and not a lot of art pieces exhibited there. If you have time you can drop by and appreciate the beautiful architecture.
It obviously depends son the exhibitions. Some today were interesting. Other too weird.
You cant pay for tickets with credit card 😒
I enjoyed my time in MOCA Taipei. The individual rooms for each theme or artist is a good set up for contemporary art. Also, the exhibitions are very relatable.
Especially the remote controlled vintage electrical appliances were a hit. People stayed there for quite some time, and so did myself.
Staff are also pleasant and helpful.
Will definitely come back if I have the chance. 👍🏼

Art gallery
Nestled in the charming alleys of Taipei, Each Modern 亞紀畫廊 is a hidden gem that exudes elegance and sophistication. As you approach its understated entrance, anticipation builds for the artistic treasures that await inside. Ascending the staircase leads to an expansive second floor with soaring ceilings that elevate your spirit and creativity. The gallery's minimalist design features pristine white walls, allowing the art to take center stage without distraction. Under the guidance of Ms.
A nice clean space to exhibit some good quality art.

On the 2nd floor of the building
The space is nicely arranged, however, the receptionist we met that day was lack of passion for the exhibition.
Very nice space and atmosphere
(Translated by Google) I like the space of Yaji Gallery. It is located in an alley not far from the traditional market. It has simple and neat white walls. When entering the gallery, you have to go through a staircase to the second floor. After reaching the second floor, you find that it is a two-story building. For the exhibition space on the first floor, instead of using the projection lights used by most galleries, use direct lighting to make the entire space evenly lit and project sunlight-like light across the entire space. The stairs continue to extend to the third and a half floors. A small observation deck overlooking the exhibition space on the second floor.
On the second floor, you can pass through to the space of the next building and display contemporary art in the same simple and neat space.

Lin YiHsuan: Density
Human beings' choices about the world have changed from a situation of external passivity, subject to limitations of time and space, to another type of internal passivity subject to value restrictions. This ultimately affects the shaping of artistic style and taste, but there is always a group of attempts. Artists and appreciators who break through them. In the same year of the last century, a group of artists with such a concept came to Paris, France, and initiated a new chapter in Chinese contemporary art. Will artists a hundred years later still be able to master the art through geographical and cultural impact and learning? Create a new art form?
The uniqueness of Latin America has given Lin Yixuan, who has lived there for eleven years, different nutrients from Western art centers. At a time when contemporary art has expanded to multiple and hybrid perspectives to redefine history, he provides how Eastern abstract painting can evolve again. An illustration of. Abstract painting itself is a form to be deciphered. Fragmented, continuous, lazy, precise, words, phrases, long songs, and images create the meaning carried by symbolist poetry, as well as a similar sense of metaphor or multiplicity. Looking back at history, the process of avant-garde abstract painting has echoes in various parts of the world, from Wu Dayu's momentum, Li Zhongsheng's subconscious, to Li Yuanjia's lines and cosmic points, and the avant-garde art in Tokyo, Paris, and Italy. At the same time, Brazil, as the country with the most prosperous abstract expression in the Southern Hemisphere or Latin America, extended another aspect of abstract painting with a non-objective abstract theory that focused on the concept of "forma".
The boldness and contrast of colors and forms in Lin Yixuan's paintings, as well as the sense of life acquired from Latin American society, have become a keynote of his creations in the past five years. This solo exhibition also includes the study of European paintings after Post-Impressionism. , is keen to re-explore the primitiveness and organic nature of prehistoric painting. He believes that even if the tools of painting have entered the modern era, they can still correspond to the pure paintings created by prehistoric humans to meet their needs and activities. Painting is not only a formal abstraction, but also a creation truly inspired by the inner vitality.

喜歡亞紀畫廊的空間，位於傳統市場不遠處的巷弄，簡潔俐落的白色牆面，走進畫廊要先經過一座樓梯往二樓一棟，到了二樓後才發現是一個挑高兩層樓的展覽空間，別用大多數畫廊使用的投射燈，直接使用直接照明，讓整個空間空間光線很均值，也像日照般的光線投射在整個空間之間，樓梯繼續延伸到三樓半的小瞭望台，可以眺望二樓的展覽空間。
在二樓可以在穿過到隔壁棟建築的空間，一樣簡單俐落的空間展示當代藝術。

人類對於世界的選取，從一種外在被動、受制於時空限制的情狀，轉換到另一種受制於價值限制的內在被動，這最終影響了藝術風格與品味的形塑，但始終有一群企圖突破它們的藝術家與鑑賞者。在上世紀的同一年份，一群懷抱如此理念的藝術家來到法國巴黎，啟蒙了中國當代藝術的新篇；一百年後的藝術家中是否還能透過地理性與文化性的衝擊與學習，揉合出嶄新的藝術形式？
拉丁美洲的獨特性給予旅居該地十一年的林亦軒有別於西方藝術中心以外的養分，在當代藝術擴大至多元、混種觀點以重新定義歷史的當下，他提供了東方抽象繪畫如何再演進的一個例證。抽象繪畫本身就是一個待解密的形式，零碎、綿延、慵懶、精密、單詞、短語、長歌、圖像，創造出象徵主義詩歌所承載的意義、以及相似的隱喻感或多重性。回顧歷史，前衛抽象繪畫的進程在世界各地產生互為呼應的連結，吳大羽的勢象、李仲生的潛意識、到李元佳的線條與宇宙點、與東京、巴黎、義大利、之間的前衛藝術的同時發生，而巴西作為南半球或拉丁美洲抽象表現最興盛的國家，卻以關注「forma形式」為概念的非客觀抽象理論，延伸出另一種抽象繪畫的面貌。
林亦軒繪畫中色彩、形式的大膽與反差，以及來自於拉美社會中習得的生活感，在過去五年內已經成為創作的一種基調，這次個展並加入對於對後印象派之後的歐洲繪畫的研究、熱衷於重探史前繪畫的原始與有機，他相信繪畫的工具即使走入現代，但與史前人類為滿足其需求與活動而創造的純粹繪畫能夠相應。繪畫不僅僅是形式上的抽象，更能是真實地被內在的生命力所鼓舞的創作。

(Translated by Google) Come here for this legendary and elegant gallery hidden in the alleys...
The low-key door can no longer hide the temperament and elegance of the gallery before entering; stepping on the steps upstairs, it is like carefully exploring the mood of treasure hunting🧐😏
After going upstairs, the high ceiling makes you suddenly enlightened, and your body, mind and soul are sublimated😇. I looked up from the perspective of the ceiling and saw that even the light tubes are made in Japan🇯🇵! Sure enough, the devil is in the details⋯⋯This gallery⋯⋯ is very handsome😎

(Translated by Google) Aki Gallery is located on Xinyi Road in Taipei City, close to the Xinyi Anhe MRT Station. Ms. Huang, the person in charge, has many years of art-related curatorial and administrative experience. After establishing the space, she worked hard to promote the development and promotion of contemporary art in Taiwan, and tried to start from the perspective of artists. There are various types of curatorial collaborations.
The works on display this time are mainly sculptures, supplemented by some artists' classic works from the 1980s. As the node of contemporary art and modern art, the 1980s and 1990s are very important and representative, and they are beyond the hidden strength of Yaji Gallery. Inviting important works by Ai Weiwei and Wang Guangyi. And its unique display cabinet is both elegant and modern.
This is a very artistic and interesting exhibition.
Highly recommended to those who love art.
Recommended artists this time: Wu Quanlun’s works related to Tongguo’s solo exhibition, Xu Jiong’s several works on the second floor, especially the one at the stairwell.

Historical landmark
The National Palace Museum is a vibrant hub for anyone captivated by the rich tapestry of Chinese history and culture. Home to one of the world's most extensive collections of Chinese art and artifacts, this museum showcases over 8,000 years of civilization. Visitors can marvel at an impressive array of items, including prehistoric relics, exquisite jade pieces, intricate porcelain works, and historical documents that offer a glimpse into the lives during the imperial Ming and Qing dynasties.
The National Palace Museum is absolutely amazing! The collection here is world-class — full of treasures that beautifully showcase thousands of years of Chinese art, history, and culture. Every exhibit feels thoughtfully curated, and the descriptions make it easy to appreciate the stories behind each artifact. The jade, calligraphy, and porcelain pieces are especially stunning!
The museum is very clean and well-organized, with friendly staff and good facilities. I highly recommend renting the audio guide — it really helps bring the exhibits to life. Whether you’re interested in history, art, or just want a peaceful and inspiring place to explore, this museum is a must-visit in Taipei!

A Must-See for History and Art Lovers!
What an incredible experience at the National Palace Museum in Taipei! The collection of treasures, jade, bronze, calligraphy, ceramics, was absolutely breathtaking. Many of these pieces are centuries old and almost lost to time, so seeing them up close was unforgettable. I even spotted an old painting with the surname “Guo” 🦋 which is actually my own surname! Highly recommend for anyone who loves history and art!
Cool place to visit, a bunch of ancient artifacts to look through. There are three ticket options, regular (350$), local and foreigner owning ARC ( 150$) and free for student.
The space was pretty well design, staffs standing in corner ready to support anything if you need. A lot of souvenirs and coffee shop on the first floor which was pretty convenient. They said that the exhibition theme will be changed and updated every 6 months. Allow all kind of camera for shooting and recording.
Highly recommend this place.
The museum features a variety of permanent exhibitions across different halls, each focused on different themes and time periods. During my visit, there was also a special exhibition on Song Dynasty, absolutely worth spending an entire day exploring at a relaxed pace. Unfortunately, I couldn’t book a guided tour this time, but I’ll definitely make a reservation in advance for my next visit.
I love the elegant calligraphy from the Song Dynasty and the beautifully crafted porcelain from the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty. The gift shop had a wide range of souvenirs, although I was a bit disappointed not to find the famous jade cabbage or hedgehog refrigerator magnets- perhaps they were sold out due to the high number of visitors. I ended up buying some postcards and mailing them right from the museum, there’s a convenient post service on B1.
Very beautiful building. Enjoyed the exhibitions, they have good signage for English as well as Mandarin. Great way to spend a rainy day or get out of the sun for a few hours. Would recommend 3-4 hours to enjoy the museum without feeling rushed.
Great museum but oh my goodness so busy! Went on a weekday as heard the weekends get crazy busy but wow. Glad we bought tickets in advance!
The collection is fabulous - permanent exhibits and some special ones too. The items were laid out nicely and creatively. Having English interpretations as well was a bonus. It was just hard to appreciate when some of the rooms were way too crowded. There were one way signs but nobody enforcing them so it was quite chaotic trying to move around.
Tried to go to the restaurant too but the queue was huge!
What I was impressed with was: lifts for those with mobility issues; very clean loos (despite the number of people) and gorgeous building. The gardens were lovely too.
Me and my husband loves to visit museum in each country that we visit. It’s one way of learning the culture and their history too. Visiting Taiwan’s national museum gave us the opportunity to see their interesting written letters and also seeing their countries priceless artefacts.
Visited on 2 Oct 25. Unfortunately the cabbage and meat jade were apparently out on "business trip"! Didn't get to see these staple pieces and the taxi driver joked that we must be hungry as we 没菜也没肉吃 lol.
It was 3 floors or exhibit and the collection of artefacts are amazing. Though some sections such as painting and literature was closed, I still spent a good 3 hours there.
Recommended if you never been here and new to Chinese historical artefacts.

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Taipei, the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall stands as a significant national landmark dedicated to honoring the legacy of Chiang Kai-shek, Taiwan's former president. This impressive structure is surrounded by a sprawling park that features serene fish ponds and beautifully landscaped gardens, making it an ideal spot for relaxation and reflection. The memorial not only showcases a striking bronze statue of Chiang but also highlights Taiwan's complex history, as he was both revered and criticized for his leadership during turbulent times.
This place is simply breathtaking. The structures are massive, impressive, and full of history. Everywhere you look, there are photo-worthy spots and a beautiful garden with a peaceful lake that you shouldn’t miss. You can freely walk around and explore every corner — everything is clean, well-maintained, and easy to navigate.
Along the way, you’ll find historical signs that explain what you’re seeing, which makes the visit even more meaningful. The entire area feels calm and respectful, inviting you to slow down and take it all in.
Taiwan truly stands out for its stunning cultural landmarks, and this one is no exception. It’s an unmissable spot for tourists and anyone visiting Taipei — a perfect mix of history, beauty, and tranquility.

The Memorial plaza is an interesting place as it stands out in its given location, surrounded by post modern buildings and bustling traffic while the Memorial buildings stand in grand scale, seemingly untouched by time. The area as a whole is free to enter, while the red side buildings hosts cultural theaters that you need to purchase tickets from their box offices within to view. It's very easy to commute to this location when using their railway systems, just be aware which exit you need to go through in order to be at its doorstep.
I had such a great experience here! The place is absolutely breathtaking and totally worth a visit. There are lots of gift shops where you can buy souvenirs and do fun things like coin pressing too. I also recommend this place if you want to stroll around and enjoy the park filled with animals like birds, fish, and turtles. They’re super friendly and really cute — it’s the perfect spot to spend a peaceful, sunny morning.
A beautiful place full of history and stunning architecture. Kiang is such an interesting person — his handwriting is truly amazing! I really enjoyed the seasonal exhibitions, they always bring something fresh to see. And don’t forget to stop by the gift shop — lots of lovely souvenirs to take home. Definitely a 5-star experience!
This is a great landmark to visit to learn some history around the previous political climate. There is great architecture to see and a garden to walk through. Underneath the memorial there are exhibitions to learn more and they have multiple language accessibility and the materials on show case are very diverse. It was a great activity to do on my first day in the city to learn and understand the modern political climate and what journey Taiwan has been on. Some exhibitions are free. There are great gift shops and also an elevator to the iron memorial if you don’t want to walk the stairs. I found the layout very easy to walk around and clearly signposted. It was a good activity for midday escaping the height of the heat in mid October.
His government was based in mainland China until it was defeated in the Chinese Civil War by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in 1949, after which he continued to lead the Republic of China on the island of Taiwan. Chiang served as leader of the Nationalist Kuomintang (KMT)
This place is grand. Pictures cant describe it. To bad, you cant go inside to see the theater and concert hall. Very nice landscape and two small ponds on both side of the hall. Changing guards ceremony is good to watch. Less than 100 steps to the memorial where the ex-president statue sit. If you turn around, its beautiful to see of the whole place.
A striking landmark with impressive architecture and spacious grounds with a diverse floral. The memorial hall hosts exhibitions on Taiwan’s history and culture. Next to it are the Grand Theatre and Concert Hall, making it a great place to visit for both sightseeing and arts.
A must-visit landmark in Taipei! The grand architecture, wide plazas, and stunning gardens make it such a beautiful place to explore. Perfect spot for photos and to learn a bit of Taiwan’s history. Make sure to apply sunscreen during the day and it’s best to visit in the afternoon when it’s not too sunny.

Summary:
Our visit to the Taipei Zoo was a highlight of our trip to Taipei. The zoo is a very affordable and family-friendly attraction.
Observations:
The entry fee is very reasonable, and children are admitted for free, which adds to the value. A stroller can be rented for a low cost, approximately 3 USD, which is convenient for families with young children.
Environment:
The Children's Zoo section is a notable feature, allowing for close-up views of the animals. We were also able to see the pandas, as the exhibit was open during our visit. A useful tip for navigating the large area is to take the tram to the top of the zoo and walk downhill. This strategy helps to avoid the main crowds and makes the journey less strenuous. We found that arriving early in the day is beneficial, as it allows you to enjoy the zoo in cooler temperatures and with fewer people.
Conclusion:
The Taipei Zoo is a solid choice for a day trip. Its affordability, family-friendly amenities, and well-designed layout make it a worthwhile destination.
Always wanted to come here and thankful that we have a day off from each other. I went quite late and was only able to clear a part therefore I will need to visit the zoo another time when I am there.
Ticket price is TWD 100 and if you are someone who is expecting the shuttle train to bring you around the zoo (which I did).. it is my pleasure to break your bubble. The shuttle train (tram) is TWD 5 , please be ready with the exact amount as there is no change or you can pay with your Easycard. The tram will only bring you to 1 part and you explore there.
So once you explore the area and want to take the tram again.. please pay again. Alternatively you can pay the same amount for the tram on the other route to Maokong Gondola. But of course maokong is another activity which you will need to pay.
Taipei Zoo is one of the best places to spend a relaxing 4–5 hours. You can visit with your family or friends and enjoy a wonderful time together. The zoo covers a large area, so don’t try to rush through it in just 2–3 hours — take your time, explore at your own pace, and fully enjoy the experience.
I adored it here. The zoo is huge so don't expect to see it all in a day. The exhibits are very, very well taken care of. This may be the nicest zoo I've ever been to, even better than the San Diego Zoo. Make time to visit if you're in Taipei!
One of the best zoos I have ever been to. It was truly special seeing the pandas in action when we went. You can definitely explore this zoo over multiple days as doing it all in one may be tiring. There is also a tram you can take around the zoo for $5. No need to buy tickets ahead of time as you can pay with the Easy Card.
The pandas here are so, so adorable 😭 When we visited, one of them was sleeping, while the other was roaming around, much to our delight! The souvenirs are cute as well so I had to get a panda plushie to bring home with me.
We went here on a weekday afternoon and it was blazing hot. Best to put on sunblock, bring a UV umbrella, and maybe a portable handheld fan to keep things cool. Though conveniently, some nozzles are hanging around the zoo to spray a refreshing water mist on visitors.
Some guys say Taipei Zoo is the largest in Asia. With the size of the place, I believe it! The entrance fee is super affordable, which is a nice surprise. But be careful! It is huge. You could easily spend the whole day wandering around, meeting animals from every corner of the world. It’s a fun and relaxing way to explore nature without leaving the city.

The Taipei 101 Observatory is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the vibrant city of Taipei from above. Located on the 89th floor, this sleek observation deck offers stunning 360-degree views that stretch across the urban landscape and beyond, with lush hills framing the horizon. Visitors can access both indoor and outdoor viewing areas via a high-speed elevator, making it an exhilarating journey to one of the tallest buildings in the world.
Visiting Taipei 101 was truly an unforgettable experience! I’m so glad I got to be inside one of the tallest buildings in the world, it’s a bucket-list moment. The whole visit felt smooth and exciting from the start. The lift ride up was unbelievably fast, and in just seconds we were looking out from such an incredible height. Throughout the journey, there were plenty of friendly staff members to guide us, making the whole process very easy and organised.
The observatory itself had so many great areas to take photos. Everywhere you turned, there were different angles and backdrops perfect for capturing memories. We decided to pay a little extra to access the very top level, and I’m so glad we did! The floral decorations up there added such a special touch, and the lighting was perfect for both videos and pictures. It was the kind of place where you just want to pause, soak in the atmosphere, and take your time enjoying the sweeping city views.
There was also a small souvenir shop, which I found really cute. They even had ice creams shaped like Taipei 101, which was such a fun little detail and made the experience even more memorable.
Overall, Taipei 101 is not just about the views, it’s about the whole journey, from the impressive lift to the photo spots, the design details, and the little surprises along the way. I left with tons of photos, videos, and wonderful memories. Definitely a must-visit if you’re in Taipei!

This is second or third time I came and each experience is better than previous. To come in need to get tickets and also queue but the wait is still manageable. There are some information about the science of the tower which is interesting for not only young kids but also adults. There were a lot of new installations and photo point for visitors. Nice view as usual, hope the windows can be cleaner but strictly speaking is already in quite decent condition. Have better view on good sunny days if come in day time.
Taipei 101 is truly one of the most magical landmarks I have ever visited. Standing tall and proud in the heart of Taipei, this iconic skyscraper not only dominates the city’s skyline but also offers one of the most breathtaking views you can imagine. I visited it recently, and from the moment I stepped inside, I was impressed by how well-organized everything was — especially considering it can get quite crowded. The flow of visitors is managed efficiently, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable.
The observation deck is the highlight of the visit. Reaching the top in one of the fastest elevators in the world is an experience in itself, but nothing compares to stepping out and seeing Taipei stretch endlessly in every direction. The view is absolutely stunning, both of the city and the surrounding mountains. It’s the kind of sight that stays with you long after you’ve left.
For those who want to take their time, Taipei 101 also offers dining options. Whether you want a quick snack or a full meal, there’s plenty to choose from, allowing you to enjoy the atmosphere a little longer.
At around €17 for an adult ticket, it’s worth every cent. Taipei 101 is more than just a building — it’s a symbol of Taiwan’s ambition, creativity, and modern beauty. A must-see for anyone visiting the city.
Pretty good viewing area on the 89th floor, and the views are great. I also went to the 101st floor and to be honest the view is the same. The viewing area is smaller with smaller windows, but it's quite nicely decorated. Unfortunately the outside Sky deck was closed during my visit (no idea why it wasn't windy and it was a nice sunny hit day) that's why I have only given it 4 stars. All in all it's definitely worth a visit.
Only by reaching the Observatory Deck and looking down that you can realise how dense and urbanised Taipei is, and with decent greenery as well. The journey up top are quite convenient, not too crowded and there are a lot of green spaces to sit, or even lie down, in the 89th floor. It's easy to spend a couple of hours there in awe of a skyscraper once was the tallest one of its kind in the world.
Just wrapping up an incredible visit to the majestic Taipei 101, and wow, what an experience! 🤩 From the moment you approach this towering architectural marvel, you know you're in for something special. The building itself is stunning from the ground up, designed to look like a stack of bamboo segments. 🎋
But the real magic is, of course, the journey to the top! The elevator ride up is lightning-fast, taking you to the 89th-floor observatory in seconds—truly an experience in itself! 🚀 Once you step out, the 360-degree panoramic views of Taipei city are absolutely mesmerizing. You can see the whole sprawl, from the mountains surrounding the city (hello, Elephant Mountain hiking view! 👋) to the busy streets below. I recommend going right before sunset to capture that golden hour glow across the cityscape! 🌇✨
And don't miss the engineering marvel at the heart of the tower: the massive golden Tuned Mass Damper (TMD) between the 88th and 92nd floors! It's an enormous, suspended steel sphere designed to stabilize the building against typhoons and earthquakes. Seeing this functional, artistic piece of physics up close is seriously mind-blowing. 🤯
If you're in Taipei, dedicating a few hours to Taipei 101 is a MUST. It perfectly blends stunning views, modern architecture, and brilliant engineering all in one spot. Don't forget to check out the luxury mall at the base too! 🛍️
Not crowded on Wednesday morning. Very beautiful from the inside there a lot of shops inside on floor 89. In order to go to the top you have to reach floor 89 then take another lift to floor 91 then exit floor to take yet another lift to floor 101. Ticket is 980 total for floor 89 and 101. I think you can take a ticket for floor 89 only since there isn't much difference in view. Keep in mind there is time limit
I've been to many observatories around the world including Dubai, Tokyo, Berlin, Guangzhou. This place is really worth it, you don't feel packed in tiny elevators, all well organized, spacious and not rushed. The views are more than amazing with many coffee shops at the top. You have also open air terrace, but I enjoyed it less. You can also see and learn about the balance dumping ball. Highly recommended.

The National Revolutionary Martyrs' Shrine is a grand and castlelike shrine dedicated to the fallen soldiers of Taiwan. It stands as a magnificent tribute to the 330,000 men who fought in various wars before the establishment of the Republic of China. Located on the slopes of Qing Mountain, it offers a picturesque setting overlooking the Keelung River.
One of the highlights of our trip to Taiwan, this Shrine is beautiful, architecturally impressive, and the history info plaques within the colonnade are very interesting and informative. The artwork is also impressive. And topping all of this is the precise and formal changing of the guard ceremony. It is good that there are still places in our world which celebrate and pay tribute to real heroes and request that visitors behave with appropriate respect and quiet in parts of the facility. Bravo to the creators and maintainers of this Shrine. Impressive, be sure to visit, it’s free, no tickets required (ignore another posting here about the entirely wrong place!) you can see the Shrine fairly thoroughly within a two hour visit.

Recommend booking tickets in advance via Klook or Trip.com for convenience. However, the walking flow at the site is a bit confusing.
there’s no clear signage or guidance on where visitors should begin or how to explore the area. Better orientation or a simple visitor map would really help.
Whilst this place was definitely worth visiting, with the change of guards being the highlight which happens every hour on the hour, and is full of Taiwan’s history, I didn’t feel that there was that much to do after looking at some of the exhibitions and descriptions of history and historical figures.
However, the architecture and change of guards were both very impressive and makes this place worth visiting. I would recommend arriving either just before the hour to see the change of guards or around half past.
There were very few people when I went and the facilities there were nice.
Visited the profoundly moving National Revolutionary Martyrs' Shrine (國民革命忠烈祠) today. 🙏 The architecture itself is breathtaking, truly a majestic tribute with its traditional Chinese palace style, vibrant red pillars, and golden tiled roofs nestled against the green mountains.
As I walked through the grand gates and approached the main shrine, a sense of solemnity and respect washed over me. This sacred place honors those who sacrificed their lives for the Republic of China, and you can truly feel the history within its walls.
Watching the dignified changing of the guard ceremony was an incredibly impressive and precise display, a highlight of the visit that commands quiet awe. It’s not just a beautiful landmark; it’s a powerful reminder of bravery and sacrifice.
A truly important and humbling site to visit in Taipei for anyone interested in history and culture. Highly recommend taking the time to experience its serene beauty and profound significance. ✨
Beautifully kept space. Not as grandiose as the Forbidden city in Beijing but immaculately detailed and well maintained. There’s a changing of the guard every hour which was quite impressive.
Really impressive place, if you come to Taipei, you should definitely visit!
It's really quick, especially if you don't have the "show" but we went at 12pm and there was one, so I'd recommand to come at that time or during another "show"
It's incredible to visit the National Revolutionary Martyrs’ Shrine to learn more about the heroic sacrifices that the fallen soldiers of the Republic of China made to protect China during WWII, resist communist China, and defend Taiwan. #ROC #Kuomingtang
Beautiful shrine! I’m glad I visited this place. I walked all the way from the Taipei Fine Arts Museum, in case you like to walk. There’s no fee to get inside. It’s very clean and well maintained. Lots of information if you’re a history buff.
Must-visit if you’re in Taipei.

Currently closed for renovation, but an iconic building in the Xinyi area, and a must see place when visiting Taipei. There is also an adjacent park with a large pond, bridge, and gazebo, that is quite beautiful. Pets are allowed, and this is one of the best places to take your dog for a walk in Taipei, or just take a stroll on a beautiful day. There is also a coffee shop adjacent, public restrooms, and nice views of Taipei 101.

A lovely large square and a great place to admire some traditional architecture with the temple at the front. The water feature is kept clean and it’s a spacious area preventing it feeling too busy, and if you’re in the area you really should pass through.
Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is a must-visit in Taipei. The architecture is stunning, and the spacious gardens provide a peaceful atmosphere. Inside, you can learn about Dr. Sun Yat-sen’s legacy through well-curated exhibits. The highlight is the hourly changing of the guard ceremony—precise and impressive. The location is convenient, near Taipei 101, making it a great stop on a city tour. Whether for history, culture, or just a relaxing walk, this place is worth visiting. Highly recommended!
Under renovation when we visited.
You can walk around in the park and lake, its a nice communal space.
We enjoyed it.
The Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall is currently under renovation and not open to visitors, so Google Maps should update the status to “Closed.” While entry isn’t possible at this time, there are several statues outside where you can still pay your respects to Dr. Sun Yat-sen, the pioneer of modern China.
the museum is under renovation but we enjoyed sitting around at the park and lakeside.
Closed until end of 2026, lovely from the outside but it was advertised as open on Google. I just submitted the edit to highlight this is closed for renovation until end of 2026.
I remembered my father usually parked his car in the parking lots here before we went dining in the restaurants near this place.
The clear view of Taipei 101 has always fascinated me, especially when you stand lakeside in the Zhongshan Park.
Moreover, there were even street performers singing or dancing sometimes.
This spot is one of the must go places around Taipei City for the travellers.
Unfortunately, the Hall won’t be opening for a while.

Huashan 1914 Creative Park is a cultural hotspot housed in a former sake winery and train station. The park features an array of shops, local art exhibitions, film screenings, and craft events. The site has been transformed into a vibrant space with a playground designed around the themes of the old train station and distillery. Visitors can enjoy various recreational facilities such as swings, slides, and even a zip line.
Huashan 1914 Creative Park is such an amazing place to explore. Between the creative exhibitions and fun pop-up stores, there’s always something new and inspiring to see.
I highly recommend checking out the perfume brand I discovered here, absolutely amazing! Beyond that, the park is full of art, design, and unique finds that make wandering around a real treat.
Definitely a spot not to be missed if you’re in Taipei.

The Doraemon Exhibition at Huashan 1914 Creative Park is absolutely delightful! It’s a perfect blend of nostalgia, creativity, and fun. The exhibition is beautifully designed — from life-sized Doraemon figures to interactive zones and art pieces inspired by classic stories. Every corner is super photogenic and brings back so many childhood memories!
The staff are friendly and well-organized, and the atmosphere is full of joy. It’s great for both families and fans of all ages. The themed merchandise area is also a must-visit — so many cute limited-edition items to take home!
Huashan 1914 Creative Park itself is a lovely place to walk around, with cafes and art shops nearby, making it a perfect day out in Taipei. Highly recommended for any Doraemon lover!
This creative park provides a platform for local food, art creators, illustrators, performers to show their creations, ideas and acts in front of the public. This park is worthy paying visit for at least 1/2 a day. There are a lot of seasonal and limited shows, exhibitions and pop up stores. You should check to see what is going on in this park before visiting.
Was raining non stop since I arrived Taipei this time round. This place offers good sightseeing with a mixture of arts, architecture, activities (vary from time to time) and unique shops to get souvenirs and eatery/cafe/drinks. Entry is FOC. Of cos any purchase of food/drinks and souvenirs, you need to pay la, haha! This place you can take your time for a stroll- was drizzling but there was a good crowd. I took some photos of the lovely place and would recommend tourists to head down for this:)
We spent a wonderful weekend at the Creative Park, and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our trip. The entire area was alive with energy — filled with laughter, music, and the vibrant buzz of people exploring the many activities happening around. Everywhere you turned, there was something interesting to see or do, from art exhibitions and creative workshops to small pop-up performances that added a joyful atmosphere to the park.
What made the experience even more special were the permanent stores scattered around the area. They offered a charming selection of handmade crafts, souvenirs, and locally produced goods that showcased Taiwan’s unique artistry and creativity. The food stalls were equally delightful, serving a variety of local Taiwanese treats and snacks that were both authentic and delicious.
The open spaces made it a perfect spot for families as well. Children could run freely across the green fields, play safely, and enjoy the lively surroundings while parents relaxed nearby. The Creative Park truly blends culture, creativity, and leisure into one inviting space. It’s a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the artistic spirit of Taiwan in a fun, family-friendly environment.
A casual, cultural, and good-to-go place in central downtown. There is a large green space with a lot of fancy and uniquely styled shops that sell everything from impressive t-shirts to cute and small handicrafts. I think this place is absolutely worth visiting!
20251004 - huge arts and events park that has many stalls that sells interesting local products and also have paid and free events. Nice place to know more about taiwan culture do some interactive experience. Some location is also nice for photo taking.
It is a very attractive cultural space. A small, old theater showing classic films... And there are many must-visit restaurants gathered in the prop shops. This place, which used to be an abandoned winery, was transformed in 1999 into a venue for art exhibitions, music performances, and other cultural activities for the arts and culture, non-profit organizations, and individuals.
It is a great place to visit with children and also a good place to visit alone for a walk, so I highly recommend it.

The National Taiwan Museum is a venerable institution that offers a variety of exhibits, covering both the country's history and natural history. Located in the historic and political core of Zhongzheng district, visitors can explore Taiwan's complex history by touring nearby landmarks such as the Presidential Building and Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. Additionally, the museum provides insight into the country's indigenous peoples through its exhibits.
We enjoyed our stop by this museum! This museum became an unexpected stop on our trip to Taipei and we are happy we dropped by.
This museum has English writing in every exhibit.
There are two museum buildings that you get entrance into with your NT$30 ticket.
There is a lot of Taiwan history in this museum, both about the people of Taiwan and the natural history.
The first floor includes an exhibit about Rhinoceros skeletons that were found on the island. The museum has a lot of taxidermy to show the many animals that live on Taiwan, some of them are quite old. The layout and design of how the displayed native plants, animals and insects is well thought out and beautiful. There is also an exhibit with puppets from different parts of Eastern Asia. This is where I found the cool drawing of Darth Vader.
The architecture and stone work in the main building (within the park) is very cool. Lots of marble in different colors and tall columns reaching up to a ceiling with stained glass.
The second building, across the street from the park, is an old bank. The exhibits include many about the bank, and a large room with dinosaur skeletons and prehistoric history.

The National Taiwan Museum was a fantastic surprise and one of the highlights of my trip. It offers an incredible amount of value for a remarkably low price, making it an essential stop for anyone interested in the natural and cultural history of the island.
What first struck me was its wonderful location. The museum is situated in a lovely little park and is conveniently connected to an MRT station, making it both easy to get to and giving it a very pleasant, gentle atmosphere.
I was truly wowed by the admission fee, which was only 30 TWD. For such a low price, I was not expecting the sheer volume and quality of the exhibits inside. The museum's main focus is on the rich ecology of Taiwan, showcasing the island's unique ecosystems, plants, and animals, alongside fascinating displays of its indigenous cultures. The layout and design are modern and comfortable, making the visit a very enjoyable experience.
You should set aside about two hours to explore everything thoroughly. While it's not a massive museum, it is packed with information and artifacts. It is absolutely worth the money and time. If you want to gain a deeper understanding of the geography and culture of this beautiful island, you simply have to visit this museum. Highly recommended!
We went to both this museum and the Land Bank museum (both part of the National Taiwan Museum). If you buy one ticket here, you can use it for both buildings! The museum is genuinely beautiful just to wander around while appreciating the architecture. It's situated next to a lush park and the grounds feel very natural (I always appreciate a green space that isn't clipped lawn!) There are permanent exhibits mainly focused around natural and cultural history in Taiwan on three floors. We didn't end up visiting the children's exhibit on the bottom floor, but I'm sure it would be great for kids. One wing was being renovated or changed in some way when we visited in October 2025, so we didn't get to visit that one. However, I would recommend this museum to any visitors and I would love to come back! The descriptions on all exhibits are in both English and Mandarin and presented very approachable, interesting commentary on the artifacts. I especially enjoyed the interactive technology integrated into the map and other scrolls! Very very good first day in Taipei!
This might just be the best museum I’ve ever been to in my life. All exhibitions and zones are so well-curated and detailed, especially the Taiwanese indigenous plants and animals zone. I walked out of the main building and thought that was it, then I suddenly realized there’s a second building across the street and went in (ticket already included), and boy was I in awe to see a life size dinosaur fossil (might be fake but still impressive) and many other fossils. If you’re looking to visit just one museum in Taiwan, let it be this museum. Most importantly, ticket is just NT30. What a steal!
Even though I’ve lived in Taipei for seven years, today was my first time visiting the National Taiwan Museum, and it was such a wonderful surprise! Located in the peaceful 228 Peace Park, the museum is easy to get to and surrounded by greenery, making for a relaxing visit.
Admission is incredibly affordable at NT$30, which includes access to both the main building and the Paleontology Museum across the street—such amazing value for the quality of the exhibits.
Inside, the museum blends natural history and cultural heritage beautifully. Highlights include:
• “Taiwan Has Rhinos” on the first floor, with rare local fossils.
• Children’s Center (B1), perfect for families with interactive zones.
• Permanent exhibitions (2nd–3rd floors) showcasing Taiwan’s ecology, indigenous cultures, and historical evolution.
The building itself is stunning, with neoclassical architecture, a grand high-ceilinged lobby, and a domed glass ceiling—a perfect photo spot. After exploring, I enjoyed a stroll in the park outside.
Even after living here for years, I feel like I discovered a hidden gem. Highly recommended for anyone wanting to learn more about Taiwan’s nature, history, and culture!
Definitely one of the best museums I've visited. Small in size but packed with aesthetic. Their display design is splendid. I specifically love the kid's area underground. Everything is positively stimulating and encouraging for kids to have their own exploration time.
It was such an amazing experience at a great price! I think the skeleton and biology sections are definitely worth visiting. I highly recommend foreign tourists to visit the National Taiwan Museum — it’s totally worth it. You can learn so much about Taiwan’s history, from ancient times to the present, as well as the culture of its indigenous people.
This museum tells the history of Taiwanese people and the rich natural wildlife of Taiwan. Small museum in which you can spend and hour max to see everything. Ticket cost 30 TWD for single adult. If you take the 30 TWD option you can visit this museum and natural history museum in a single day. If you choose the 130 TWD instead then you can visit this museum and natural history museum plus two other places within 30 days period.

The Taipei Botanical Garden is a serene destination popular for bird watching and home to numerous plant species and ponds. Spanning 15 hectares, the garden boasts over a thousand plant varieties and offers free admission. Visitors can escape the city's hustle and bustle to admire unique flora while encountering adorable red squirrels and fluttering butterflies. The tranquil setting features charming ponds, arbors, and bridges, providing an idyllic retreat within the bustling city.
What a wonderful, wonderful place. Perfect for strolling around, doing light exercise (saw quite a few people doing tai chi moves) and open areas, sitting and reading or talking with a friend or drinking tea that you bring along, whatever you feel like, that’s respectful and peaceful, of course. And definitely look and appreciate at all the plants ! So many lovely green growing things, cared for with special skill, including a welcome selection and indication and explanations of plants native and endemic to Taiwan.
There are at least two restrooms, and a few water fountains and bottle refill stations scattered throughout the park / garden.
Easily wheelchair- and stroller-accessible. Entrance free-of-charge. Each time that I’ve been here has been a delight.

This place is really cool and one of the reasons Taipei feels so pleasant to me. The garden has many types of trees and paths you can walk around for a while. I love how it’s designed for people to enjoy different areas like the pond, greenhouse, tropical zone, and more, each with a variety of plants. The information signs around the garden are also helpful and worth checking out. Love this place ! and yes, you can visit without any ticket or fee.
The Taipei Botanical Garden is a peaceful oasis right in the heart of the city. It’s beautifully maintained, with a wide variety of plants, trees, and flowers from all over Taiwan and beyond. The layout is easy to walk through, and the walking paths are shaded and relaxing, perfect for a quiet stroll or some time away from the busy streets.
One of the highlights is the lotus pond, I believe it will looks beautiful when the flowers are in bloom — it’s absolutely stunning and a favorite spot for photos. There are also many interesting themed areas and information boards that explain the plants’ origins, which make it both relaxing and educational.
The garden is free to enter, and it’s close to public transportation, which makes it very convenient. The only small downside is that it can get hot and humid during summer, so bringing water and a hat is recommended. Some tap water are not working during our visit in October 2025.
Overall, it’s a wonderful place for nature lovers, photographers, or anyone who wants a calm break in the middle of Taipei.
We came in after lunch for a stroll. It was nice to see so many big trees in the city. There are many plants (of course), there are so many different varieties of bamboo in the bamboo garden. The nice thing about the arboretum is that many of the plants have name plates. I feel that it would be nice to have more contents about each plant, such as what its usage is or where it's from. We saw some birds in the park and some small critters. The walkways in some areas are really uneven and could be unsafe for elderly people to walk on.
It's a nice place to walk around and spend some time getting close to nature. Be careful about the mosquitoes😅.
Free entry, easy going people, small enough to walk around within an hour- and plenty enough sitting spaces and variety to spend hourss.
Come with your art book, watch fishies and turtugas (don't feed them!) , play badminton, run.
The hours could be more flexible though !
The place is spacious and has a large collection of plants. Unfortunately, it wasn’t lotus blooming season, so the ponds looked rather empty. There were still many birds and small animals around, which was nice. One downside, though, was the dimly lit toilet—it felt quite eerie, so I ended up not going in because it was too scary.
The Taipei Botanical Garden is a great spot to relax with friends, exercise, or simply pass the time. It’s surrounded by lush greenery, but it’s best to visit before evening to avoid mosquitoes and other insects—or just bring some insect repellent along.
Very calm and soothing park in the middle of Taipei. There is small museum and exhibition zone inside but need to check if it is under renovation or not.

Beautiful garden with a stunning tulip festival! The flowers smell amazing, and the atmosphere is so peaceful.
I visit here by the end of February, all the flower has bloomed, they even has lavender, hydrangea, and of course lots of colourful tulip. Perfect spot for a relaxing stroll and great photos!

This year’s flower exhibition was well planned, and there are many special varieties of tulips.
We walked through a big well maintained beautiful garden leading to the residences.
The guides provide full historical stories of each room of the residence. The Chinese paintings are all the original work of madam Chiang except one painting from the famous artist Pu Xing Yu. Many beautiful furniture art works all built by local artists and manufacturers.
The building is a very well designed architecture. It is very worth the visit.
Beautiful Garden with flowers display. Take the MRT to get off at Shilin Station , only 7 min walk to the entrance. No entrance fee .
Great weather today and not a lot of people. Beautiful flowers and well arranged. It's a pity that some of the main display weren't open and the next season of flowers were not ready yet. Definitely come back when they're all set up.
If you are into gardens and museums, allocate at least 4 hours to explore the place!
We arrived mid-morning and overwhelmed but the lovely garden landscape, it's amazing they have this free flower park attraction in Taipei! We got so distracted and took one too many pictures so when we were ready to enter the paid attraction, the residence, we were being encouraged to enter the house right away as it was newly lunch time.
We were a curious and history-amused bunch that we enjoyed the timeline literature right at the entrance. Only with more convincing from the staff did we enter the main residence hall, with mere 10-mins to lunch break closing time. We didn't get to finish seeing the entire features of the residence museum since they went to lunch break but we were told we can have our wrists stamped and return when the museum reopens for the afternoon.
Unfortunately, we had a packed agenda for the rest of the day so we had to leave and regretted spending so much time at the garden when that was open for much longer.
Tulip flowers awesome time. Most amazing experience. The place was filled with flowers. No entry ticket. Anyone can go to see. I really loved the place. You will be amazing after seeing different wonderful colors of nature. Well decorated.
Interesting to take a look. The staff there are friendly and some of them took time to explain some facts to us though we are not on a guided tour. I don't recommend to buy tickets in advance as you can easily but at booth. There is 100 pax within at any one point in time, thus buying on the spot will enable you to know if can indeed enter.

It offers over 600 ongoing exhibits that make learning about science engaging and interactive. The museum is divided into different sections, with the upper levels housing the main attractions. Visitors can explore hands-on exhibits and enjoy storytelling experiences.
Visiting the National Taiwan Science Education Center (NTSEC) was truly one of the highlights of our Taipei trip. With four floors of enriching discoveries, my toddler had a fantastic time exploring and learning — quite impressive for a 3-year-old!
Even as an adult, I found myself learning and enjoying every part of the experience. It’s a well-curated space that engages all ages.
I highly recommend visiting if you have the chance — you won’t regret it!

A Disappointing Visit to the Taipei Astronomical and Science Center
My recent visit to both the Taipei Astronomical Museum and the Taipei Science Center was, unfortunately, a major disappointment. It's my impression that both facilities are primarily geared towards kindergarten and elementary school students, leaving little of interest for other visitors.
The most frustrating aspect of the visit was the experience with the interactive exhibits at the Science Center. The queues for many attractions were excessively long, and the worst offender was a particular musical exhibit. After waiting for nearly half an hour, I was disappointed to find that the experience itself did not live up to the wait time.
The issue was compounded by a lack of queue etiquette. A large family in front of us hogged the exhibit, playing three times in a row without any regard for the long line of people waiting behind them. They were simply following the behavior of the family ahead of them. This kind of inconsiderate behavior made the experience particularly frustrating.
I tried to seek help from the staff who were standing nearby, but my attempts were met with indifference. When I approached them, several staff members simply walked away, and one woman just stood beside us, also waiting. I regret not having complained earlier, as the staff appeared to be unhelpful in resolving the situation.
Given this experience, I will not be visiting either of these attractions again, even on future trips to Taiwan.
The little architect exhibition is probably a lot of fun for older children, but I had to leave after 10 mins with my 2 year old, because it was too crammed with older children and too dangerous for her, especially the trampoline area. I even asked beforehand at the ticket booth downstairs if it was very full and the lady said it was fine. Maybe the numbers of ppl entering at the same time could be regulated better or there could be time slots reserved for smaller children? Btw we went on Wednesday 10:30am..
Very good place for family! And plenty of summer classes available! My daughter is doing the 分子料理 class here
This place is such a let down. The exhibits are old and outdated and most are under maintenance . Experience is even made worse by having two large engines working indoor with exhaust blasting in the main atrium of the building.. Polluting the whole area.
Not recommended though the tickets are super cheap, which should be..it should even be free for the kind of exhibits it has.
Good place to visit but air-conditioning system did not provide well compared to the weather
When we visited, the museum was under construction. While a bit annoying that is no reason to deduct stars. However, they were running 2 diesel cranes indoors without ventilation... they should have shut down or gotten some electric cranes.
Nice museum with diverse activities for kids to explore. However some of the workshops are unnecessarily long, and presentation very complicated for kids to sit and follow through. Wish they can provide information also about what ages are those sessions intended for.
Getting in was very easy, but getting car parked had a very long queue.

Movie theater
Vieshow Cinemas Xinyi is located in the vibrant district of Xinyi, known for its department stores, hotels, and high-end restaurants. It's part of a bustling area that includes the famous Taipei 101. The cinema offers a variety of movies, including heartwarming films like "Flipped," which follows the growth of two main characters' relationship. The cinematography and acting skills in this movie are particularly impressive.
I hardly went to the cinema and this time I did but didn’t watch any movies because I am not a movie fan. The food court was crowded with people and actually bigger than I imagined.
Porex P — Google review
Vieshow Cinemas Xinyi is barely passable as a modern movie theater. Between broken kiosks at the first floor, poor signage, spotty staff, a lack of bathrooms, mobility-unfriendly design, and uncomfortable seating, it fails at many of the basics. While the screen and sound were serviceable, the overall experience left much to be desired. Only worth considering if you truly have no better option.
Full Review
Vieshow Cinemas Xinyi (台北信義威秀影城) is the kind of theater you wind up at—not because you sought it out, but because it happened to be nearby, or because the movie you wanted wasn’t playing anywhere else. Unfortunately, even those low expectations may still leave you disappointed.
Let’s start with the first impression. The kiosks on the first floor? Completely non-functional when it came to checkout. For a multiplex that sees this much foot traffic—especially one in the vibrant Xinyi District—that’s not a minor inconvenience, it's a sign of a theater that hasn't kept up with the times.
Finding your way from there doesn’t get much better. The signage to reach the actual ticket counter and the screening rooms is surprisingly poor. It’s an odd maze of escalator-less floors, unclear pathways, and a small, janky elevator that feels less “modern entertainment venue” and more “aging office building.” For anyone with mobility issues, this setup is downright unfriendly. There's no dedicated escalator or accessible elevator experience for guests heading to their movie—a basic accommodation that’s been overlooked.
Once you’re finally up there, the staff experience is inconsistent. I encountered a near-even split between employees who seemed genuinely helpful and others who gave off the air of disinterest or irritation. In a customer-facing environment, that variance can sour the mood fast, especially when you’re already frustrated trying to navigate a clunky building layout.
And now, a bizarre design flaw: there are no bathrooms in the theater zone. Want to go before the movie? You’ll need to head all the way back down. Have to step out mid-screening? Same story. It’s baffling. I can’t think of another major theater—especially in a mall-adjacent, high-traffic area like this—where the facilities are that far removed from the actual cinema.
When the movie finally starts, you’ll find firm seats that lack the plush comfort of even moderately newer venues. The screening room I was in had noticeable fluctuations in temperature—no AC for the first 15 minutes, then a sharp chill that felt more like overcorrection than actual climate control. It's the kind of thing that pulls you out of the experience, and reminds you you’re sitting in a poorly managed facility.
To its credit, the screen was decent, and the audio was mostly good—until deep bass moments, where parts of the theater started to vibrate in the wrong ways. Whether it was rattling furniture or poor acoustic insulation, it made it feel more like a converted basement screening room than a flagship cinema.
And to cap it all off, the official website was down during my visit, which made it impossible to check showtimes online. That’s just amateur hour for a venue that wants to be taken seriously.
Final Verdict
Vieshow Cinemas Xinyi might still draw crowds due to its location and lack of nearby alternatives, but don’t mistake that for quality. From nonfunctional kiosks when it came to transaction time and flawed accessibility to mediocre comfort and baffling design oversights, it’s clear this cinema is coasting on inertia rather than actual merit. Unless you're a cinema casual with nowhere else to go, do yourself a favor: look elsewhere.
2 out of 5 stars – Below standard, only acceptable if you’re desperate.
We enjoyed our movie here! The seats were comfortable, though I expected a bigger screen. The staff are super nice and chill. The food combos are awesome, especially the sweet popcorn and churros.
On the walk way, there are many baskers. This one is good. I wished I could dance to all his tunes! So romantic tunes!
We watched the latest Mission Impossible (supposedly Tom Cruise’s last one, but who knows, though he looked really old) at #13, with may be 7 rows of seats. The seats were comfortable and the AC was cold.
What a shame, we come all the way to the cinema with kids who were waiting for weeks to watch the anime Lilo and Stitch. We get our tickets, we buy drinks and food then when we get to the room they stop us to go in and tell us that our little one of 5 years old can’t go in because that movie for kids is for kids above 6 only. After arguing with them they accepted to refund the tickets but it took forever with the manager. Of course the kids were crying and sad. Such a waste of time, 0 kindness and 0 professionalism! They also told us that what we bought for the movie they wouldn’t refund even tho it was to watch while watching in their crappy cinema.
Just a joke cinema !! Don’t go there and download home instead
Popcorn: salty kind is stale and sweet kind is moist/wet?! Anyway it’s not freshly made.
Seats: your regular standard cushioned seating. Elevation with front and back row is nicely designed.
Comfortable seats. But the noise of crowds leaving other movies, talking right outside the door is very distracting. Would not choose this theater if possible.

Beitou Park is a picturesque area known for its natural attractions, including hot springs, wetlands, and national parks. Visitors can enjoy a local experience by soaking their feet in the free hot springs alongside locals. A short walk from the park leads to Hell Valley, where extremely hot water bubbles up from the ground.
Born in 1913, Beitou Park is a venerable sanctuary, a storied landscape that has cradled the joys and quiet moments of countless souls for over a hundred years as the island's inaugural hot spring park.
On the day I wandered its paths, it presented a beautiful tableau of existence: the gleeful energy of children weaving around wise elders, the tender cadence of lovers sauntering through, and the appreciative gazes of tourists drinking in the beauty of ancient trees and vibrant flora.
It led me to reflect on its nocturnal charm – what a wonderfully secure and tranquil setting it must be for heartfelt contemplation, a timeless stage where life's simple, profound moments continue to play out.

Nice park, wish it wasn't so hot so that we couldn't really enjoy the park. We only walked through the park quickly to go to the library as it was so hot. But it is beautiful with several nice features and lots of trees. You can see that there's also a hot springs museum in the park, but it wasn't open the day we were in town, so we couldn't go. Even the park bathrooms across from the library were built with the Japanese style architecture that's very appealing, the same as the library. We also liked all the trees, plants, the pond with the lotus flowers, and even the insects we saw there.
Beautiful park with thermal springs. Picturesque with lots of hot spring hotels and places to see. Suggest coming in the week cause it gets very busy at weekend a
It's a very nice park to walk around. The layout is beautiful with an arch bridge and some stylish buildings. It's well maintained. There are beautiful lily and lotous ponds. Would recommend.
I always go her to walk sight seeing little bit hiking this a good place where u can sit down and relax
Cute place! Make sure you get there early as most shops close when it hits around 5pm.
Very relaxing park at the city center. There are a few bridges and ponds with lotus flowers. It's a nice place to unwind with food from the near by shops. The city library is in one corner. The library is another great place to sit in air conditioning before enjoying the rest of the park.
A park with the green building library. Great to spend some time in the such peaceful place.

Plum Garden is a charming 1930s timber-frame residence located in Beitou, known for its riverfront gardens and unique features such as an air-raid shelter in the basement. This traditional Japanese wood-framed architectural wonder was once the summer home of the renowned calligrapher and political leader Yu You-ren. Visitors can admire the original doors and windows that have been preserved from its historical past.
Beautiful building, once the summer home of famed politician and calligrapher Yu Youren, for whom a majority of the museum exhibits are dedicated. The museum is small and a visit should not last more than an hour. Admission is free.

A small old fashioned house near the public hot spring bath and the green library in Xinbeitou offers its space for traditional musical demo/performances during the weekend. Stop by if you are in the region or when you visit the Thermal Valley!
This is a great addition to Beitou. The Plum Garden is the former residence of calligrapher Yu Youren turned museum. The historic building (built 1930s) displays calligraphy works of Yu Youren.
It is a little way out from central Beitou but worth the pleasant walk.
Nice place to visit if you are interested in calligraphy. Must take off your shoes before going in. Enjoy the air conditioning.
Quite place and very classic house. Even though it is hot outside, you can feel cool inside. There are many rooms to visit. Each room shows the history of place the owner used to live.
Good place to visit, nothing too much special. Entrance is free. Visit it if you have time.
Nice Japanese style building structure to visit.

The Ketagalan Culture Center is a multifunctional venue in Taiwan dedicated to preserving the history and culture of the indigenous Taiwanese people, particularly the Ketagalan aboriginal tribe. The center features permanent exhibitions showcasing artifacts and history on multiple floors, along with spaces for performances, reading rooms, and indigenous language classes. It serves as a hub for cultural education, traditional knowledge promotion, and sustaining tribal culture through gatherings, seminars, book readings, and studying.
A dominant culture owes a great deal to subordinated peoples by allowing for places like the Ketagalan Culture Center to flourish. In an ever homogenized and connected world it’s all the more important to maintain the individual and unique histories of indigenous peoples. I had a wonderful time and learned a lot!

I was really looking forward to visit this place and learn more about the indigenous people of the area but honestly there weren’t many things to see in here. Idk if they changed the exhibits recently or I might have missed a few exhibition areas but I didn’t see many traditional costumes on display. The exhibits in the basement didn’t have any English translation at all. Hope they can improve on that. This place has a lot of potential but I understand they may not have the funds for it since it’s free for all. With that being said, I would still recommend to drop by this place if you’re around the area.
Btw, the staffs are all so nice and welcoming :)
Free entrance. Great to learn about the indigenous people of Taiwan. The second floor is a permanent indigenous exhibit and third floor changes once in a while. Fully air-conditioned to stay away from the summer heat.
I love museums about indigenous cultures and try to visit one in every country I go to. This one was really disappointing. The first exhibition is a little display in the lobby, which has no English translation at all. The second has about 10 pieces of clothing on display with a few words in English but only folk stories about what they believed in. No information about what the different indigenous groups are, where they are located etc. The museum is free but I'd rather pay a fee and learn something.
Interesting museum about Taiwan indigenous people. Free admission.
It's the place to go to learn about the culture of the first settlers of the island. I particularly enjoyed the colorful traditional costumes of the various ethnic groups and the artwork of their contemporary artists.
There's very little discussion on the gradual takeover of the island by the colonial powers and mainland Chinese and the extent of their influence on the locals. From the little that I read, it seems that the locals fared better compared to the indigenous people of North America.
An English brochure is available at the reception but a majority of the exhibits only have Chinese text. Admission is free. My visit lasted an hour.
To be frank, I didn’t realize that this was a museum since there’s so little explanation. I think to embrace one’s culture, maybe I recommend to add English for the brief explanation, so that tourist can have better understanding here
Comfortable environment, airconditioned and the exhibit we went to featured people indigenous to Taiwan and there were art works made by students that you could leave notes for! Highly recommend visiting. It's free admission!

The Red House, a historic octagonal building established in 1908, is a must-visit destination in Taipei. It houses various attractions such as exhibits, a teahouse, markets, and theaters. Surrounding the area are artistic hubs like Huashan 1914 Creative Park and charming street fairs offering unique finds. The bustling streets around The Red House are always filled with crowds enjoying street performances, themed restaurants, and innovative retail stores.
The Red House in Taipei is a fantastic spot to explore, and it's just one of many well-preserved buildings in Taiwan that showcase the country's rich history and architecture. What makes this place special is the unique blend of old and new, with beautifully restored structures housing modern shops and stalls.
Inside the Red House, you'll find a variety of shops selling distinctive merchandise that's perfect for souvenirs or gifts. I was particularly impressed by the creativity and craftsmanship on display. I picked up a wooden gun that uses rubber bands as bullets for my nephew, and he absolutely loved it! It was a great find, and I appreciated the thought and effort that went into designing such a unique toy.
One of the reasons we enjoyed spending time in the Red House was the comfortable atmosphere, thanks to the air conditioning. It provided a welcome respite from the heat outside, and we were happy to roam around, browse the shops, and take in the sights.
Overall, the Red House is a great place to visit if you're interested in history, architecture, or just looking for some unique shopping experiences. The combination of old-world charm and modern creativity makes it a standout destination in Taipei.

This historical building has a very nice architecture, and the exterior of the building is used as a bar street in the evening where you can find bars serving up some music and alcohol while the open areas are used for pop up events and exhibitions. The interior of the building has been converted into smaller handicraft boutiques and a cafe. In the middle is the display of its history.
This is a heritage building, and inside display arts, cultures, souvenirs and more. It's surrounding by shops, restaurants and pretty much a prime LBGTQ areas. There are a few gay bars and some shops behind the building only opened at nite. There's where you meet people, friends and hangout at night. This is wide open busy and safe area, also a subway point. I always come here to meet my friends when I visit Taipei.
If you are visiting the ever popular touristy Ximending, then this is a not to miss spot. It sits right outside of the pedestrian only area of Ximending and you can’t really miss it. The architecture features of this bike building by themselves were worth my visit.
This used to be an old theater (opera house) that has been converted into an indoor exhibit/shopping area that showcases Taiwan’s younger generation talents of arts & crafts. It is also a nice place to pick up unique souvenirs for friend and family back home. It has volunteer conducted tours (we didn’t have the time for it, but it should be worth your while if interested in old Taipei history). The whole place had A/C, areas to rest, clean bathrooms and a nice Tea Cafe. Although it probably didn’t warrant a special trip, but if you are already in the area, then you should check it out.
Great little historic place to visit. This is the only place I got taiwan souvenirs from. A nice place to take refuge in and explore during a hot day! They have an all gender restroom which was very interesting.
This is an iconic historical building in the heart of Ximending. Inside, there is a large toilet, small cafe, and many local businesses. This is a fantastic place to buy souvenirs for friends and family back home — most vendors are local illustrators and crafters, and many sell merchandise that feature famous sightseeing spots in Taiwan such as Jiufen, Shifen, Taipei 101, and so on.
I really love the range of works displayed, and couldn’t help but buy a few postcards and keychains from the following artists (Instagram usernames in brackets): Ni Hao Club (@littleyellowstudio), Cornet Cat (@corner_catt), Littdlework (@littdlework) and miimiicat (@miimiicat), Humor Star @twinkle_twinkle_humor_star). Hope to see more of their works around!
Also, on the upper floor, there are more stalls and a small display of local biodiversity which I really liked too.
Nice architecture from outside with its classic red color. Inside was nothing too special, but now it has many different small design shops. There is also a ruin area to present that the bricks were burned.
Red House, iconic landmark of Taiwan, this place is now a shopping area with small local brands inside, there is also a coffee shop in which I ordered a red tea from. Ximen is a must visit for everyone that comes to Taiwan.

Visitors have the rare opportunity to explore a 1950s-era military dependents' village. The venue hosts cultural and creative markets as well as secondhand bazaars on weekends and holidays, showcasing artful creativity and youthful ingenuity. Occasionally, there are music performances that visitors can enjoy.
This is a beautiful memorial place. Old houses that hold memories of Taipei's past. A good place to explore a brief history in the middle of downtown Taipei. Apart from that, this place has a beautiful and perfect spot to enjoy Taipei 101. Visitors can also enjoy food and drinks from the shops in this area.

I love the location. Historical structure so close to Taipei 101. Not a whole lot to do but much to admire. I enjoyed it.
Located within a 5-10mins walk from taipei 101, would recommend a quick visit if you have some time to spare.
Saw in google review there are items from olden days that you can look at but when we got there we couldnt find any signs of display available for viewing.
However, the buildings are beautiful and photo-worthy, there's also little cafes around. Still an interesting place to visit.
Nice location to take photos with Taipei 101 tower
Nice to relax, have a cool drink and listen to music. Very y cool vibe. Small shop for drinks and stuff. Worth strolling by
44 South Village was originally Taipei's first military dependents' village. Redeveloped by the city, some buildings were demolished but there were some tires of buildings retained to exude the village ambience. One of the buildings is now the Cultural Memorial Center, a space for exhibitions and cultural events. There was an exhibition currently on as it was the 70th anniversary of Taiwan which had just past. There were many literature and photos of how Taiwan evolved from 1949 to its current situation. Very interesting knowledge and it is well worth the trip if you happen to be in Taipei around this time.
A great historical place utilized as a market - lots of people taking a look around and enjoying the food and drinks on offer
The Si-Si (44th) South Village was the first military kindred village built in Taiwan by the KMT government in 1948 after they were defeated in the civil war in China. Most of the people who lived in the village were the military factory employees, workers and their dependants who left their homes in China and came all the way to Taiwan. At first, they intended to “temporarily stay” in the place that was the former Japenese Army 44th Arsenal because deep in mind they were determined to return to China in a couple of years only. Never did they know that the short stay lasted over 50 years!
In 1978, the residents of the Si-Si (44th) South Village moved to Sansia due to the urban land consolidation. And the site is now home to Skyscraper Taipei101、Financial Centre, a shopping mall and mansions.
Today, Si-Si South Village was approved historic buildings, adjacent to Xinyi Public Assembly Hall and the Cultural Park of Military Dependents' Village, which were set up in 2003.

A nice park for morning exercise and bird watching, also considered as one of the best positions to see Taipei 101.
A few years ago, I usually came here to play Pokemon Go and caught some Pokemon with my father. I also just admired the landscape after eating ice cream in the cafe. This park is full of memories.
Zhongshan Park is named after Dr. Sun Yat-sen, a prominent figure in Chinese history. The park is popular for morning exercises, including tai chi and yoga. There is also a playground for children, making it a family-friendly destination. The park hosts various cultural events and exhibitions, adding to its lively atmosphere.
Very nice park in the XinYi area of Taipei
This park features the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall and a number of statues and a lake with a pagoda on the property. A really nice place for a walk and some Taipei 101 photography.
Majestic tribute to Sun Yat Sen and definitely a place to visit to understand the history of Taiwan. You can get a good view of the Taipei 101 Tower as well. We saw the closing ceremony of the two soldiers leaving the statue in the main hall as well as the folding of the flag. Many spectators were watching.
Very crowded, lots of souvenir stalls, food stalls, and busy street, a good experience around zhongshan district.

The park itself was nice and breezy. Not too crowded so you can enjoy in peace There are also bicycles for rent. The flowers are also well taken care of. A little bit far to the station. Will comeback again
Beautiful, large park along the river with very scenic views throughout. Several sports fields along a walkway or promenade, with a great dog park towards the end. Not very accessible by public transportation, and it's a rather long walk from start to finish. We took a taxi to get there, but to leave it's a fairly long walk back to the entrance where you can find a taxi.
The park is nice. It’s right up on the river where you can see boaters sometimes. You can get really great views of the city or the mountains to the north. There are basketball courts, tennis courts & a skating rink. The extends into other parks on the east and west and if you cross the bridge you can access football fields.
I would give it five stars but too many of the bikers, especially on weekends, are not aware of their surroundings and it can cause problems when you are trying to exercise. Also during commuting hours you might have to avoid scooters that illegally use the pathway to avoid traffic signals while coming to or from work.
Beautiful place,very relaxing view!The best place to take your family for walk and riding a bicycle and also to take your dog for walk😍..Exercise and jogging too
amazing view and park for children playing, we can bicycle riding , running , or even can have picnic with friends and families here !
it is beautiful place for a morning or evening walk .. the crowd is very less and gives ample of place for kids and people who wish cycling in empty roads. the view from this park is mesmerizing.
Most of the time I am here for walking my dog. It is a great place to do some relaxing activities, for instance, biking, jogging and playing balls,etc.
You can enter the park from Keelung River gate 16. It is near exit 3 of MRT Jiannan Rd station. Then get a YouBike and enjoy biking along the river.

It's not just a playground; it also houses the Museum of Drinking Water, an educational facility that emphasizes the importance of water as a valuable resource. The park includes historical baroque buildings and turn-of-the-20th-century technology.
This place has a very strong soul about sanitation technology, especially in the field of clean water supply. I was very amazed when I saw 10 pumps standing firmly in a building that also had very good architecture. always can't think how one century ago these people could build this technology. never regret coming here

Very crowded on a hot week end but our kids cooled down and had a good time. Would not come back though, youth park swimming pool is better option. Friendly staff.
It’s so nice that Taiwan has these public facilities that is clean, cheap, and fun! The facilities is excellent with many lockers, shoe racks, change room… they even have a station to pump air into your floaties and save you some breaths.
The water park comes with many slides and water jets everywhere. Not surprisingly also will constantly hear the life guards yelling at kids to not run and adults to not go on slides. 😮💨
The drinking water museum is inside this park which is about 10 minutes walk from Gongguan MRT station. It is a good education outing for senior citizens and children and probably for some tourists like me (as it gives some historical insights into Taipei history of development of portable water resources apart from photo taking with cherry blossoms when in season).
This is such a great inexpensive way to get through the summer heat with the kids. It can get incredibly crowded on weekends, but is usually ok on weekdays though there can be large groups from summer camps then. They also sell lots of toys, towels, floaties and bathing suits in case you forget to bring anything.
It’s clean and fun, but pack of kids, even on a weekday there are lots of ppl during summer holidays, so be prepared for a crowded environment if you plan on going recently. However, there are still lots of area where there are not many ppl and you can still play with some water. It’s all included in the entry fee, after all it’s a really cheap deal to spend many hours with. Kids love that place in all ages.
Not crowded on the weekend if you come in the morning.
Kids below 12 y.o free
Affordable, clean, the staff are friendly.
Having a quick Water Museum trip, then spending couple hours in the small water park, are great for kids in this hot summer season ~

Many games to play, you can shop as many as you want and eat your cravings food. The Ferris wheel is so big and the slow movement of it can mesmerized you from the beauty of city lights. You can watch movies too with your love ones, friends and family.
Nearest mall from the hotel which I stayed. Department store and quite a number of stores at the mall with foodcourt and supermarket at basement level. Quite a complete mall, just that there wasn't any sheltered pickup area at the mall.
The mall itself only opens daily 11am to 10pm but I noticed a queue in the morning around 8am something to go to cinema. Not sure what is this about. Didn't bother to ask 😂
Nice mall. There is a large food floor. Lots of food shops.
Past its prime but still pulsing, Miramar Mall sits beneath a Ferris wheel that nobody rides anymore—except maybe for couples on their third date who’ve run out of things to say. The wheel casts a shadow over the food court like a relic from a more optimistic urban planning era. And yet, I return.
朱記 (Juji) remains my go-to for vegetarian steamer basket dumplings—think Din Tai Fung, but with fewer tourists and more existential dread. It’s a clever brand, really: tucked into all the would-be derelict malls.
This particular mall is always buzzing, but let’s be honest: compared to Breeze, Sogo, or Shin Kong Mitsukoshi, it’s the mall equivalent of a neighborhood cat—scrappy, familiar, and slightly aloof. It serves the residential elite of Zhongshan, where condos go for over $2 million per ping. Cray cray, as the kids used to say.
But I digress.
My latest disappointment: Juji has swapped out its vinegar and soy sauce bottles for plastic packets, McDonald’s-style. It kills the vibe. There’s something about tearing into a sachet of soy sauce that makes you question your life choices. Still, we eat well here—better than NYC or Connecticut, and at a fraction of the price. That alone keeps me loyal.
Miramar retains a certain allure. Maybe it’s the name—evocative of California, and yes, it means “look at the ocean” in Spanish. Thank you, high school Spanish class. No ocean in sight, of course, but the AC is strong, the dumplings are hot, and sometimes that’s enough.
Check it out if you’re in the area. Especially in summer.
During my free time, I visited Miramar Entertainment Park in Neihu, where the facilities on the first floor and basement level offer clear directions and a bright space, with convenient parking. The B1 level has high-quality shoe sales and food stalls, providing a comfortable dining area. The fifth floor, featuring Golden Three Wheat and other chain restaurants like Fridays, offers a wide range of dining options. As the only department store in Taipei with a Ferris wheel, located next to the Jian Nan MRT station, where spending can offset parking fees, it provides a relaxing shopping and dining paradise for all age groups and communities. Additionally, it boasts a very large MUJI store for shopping.
It was the first time we go here to watch the movie and the experience was so good, In 6F their movie place. I liked their IMAX we enjoyed the widescreen, they have a clean space and a lot of foods choice in B1 for their food court. But you need to queue and ready your receipt when you were going out for parking. Because they still using staff waiting in the car park exit for your payment for parking hours.
Excellent Mall with food court and cinema shows

This large park has many green spaces, including a tennis court and softball field, as well as a cycle path along the Dagou River. It's a great place to spend a day out with family and friends.
Bike pump track by the Keelung river. Open for everyone, no matter how old are you. My 4yrs old daughter loves it. With the scenic view on Taipei 101 and cycling route next to it.

Nice place to go for walking, with
Skateboard and bike facilities, as well as other sports, like baseball.
Not as good as expected but there is a night market nearby so you can find yourself enjoying some other experiences
Riding your bike at sunset is one of the best experiences you can have in Taipei - feels like your running on endless strakes of pink and orange and purple clouds with clear night view over the city skyline, planes taking at far away destination above, and 101 Taipei Tower peaking behind the bridge! Please enjoy it at least once! Did I mention the moon shot at night fall?! 💥
Good place to have BBQ with friends and family. Fresh atmosphere, you can enjoy riding bicycle around the park. Very interesting.
Great atmosphere, views, with less people, a tranquil spot of Taipei City
Nice place for fireworks seeing. Not full of people compare with taipei101 xinyi district, easy to find spot without other people‘s distractions. Love the atmosphere here with my lovely gf. Walking along the river and enjoy the cozy wind. I came here from Neihu and it took me around 40mins to walk here.
Lovely clean park. Perfect for running, cycling or just going for a stroll.

The Guanshan Riverside Park is located on the eastern waterfront of Shanghai and features beautiful ornamental flowers, bike paths and sports areas that offer stunning views of the Minquan Bridge. It is a popular spot for tourists and locals to relax and enjoy the scenic surroundings.
Got here by accident but then found out that this park is a really nice place to hangout, bike and picnic. There’re planes coming and going every now and then, it’s a beautiful unobstructed cityscape.
The most interesting part is that there’s also a wall for graffiti art~

Very nice park with beautiful river view.
My baby daughter Aglaia is in love of this spot on Keelung riverside. I always take her here. She is so happy!
Perfect place for some exercise. Many people walk, run, or cycle along the well-kept paths. The scenic views adds to the experience.
Best picnic place during the long Hollidays when all locals are out of town!
Great place and special recommended to those who love sport, must visit place
nice bike track and soccer filed. Parking space is sufficient.
You can walk or bicycle all day along the rivers here. Safe at any time of day or night. Water fountains, clean restrooms evenly spread out. Here at Guanshan, there are tennis courts, basketball courts, baseball fields, a croquet field, an awesome view of Taipei 101, plenty of space under the overpass for skating. The planes from the airport take off right overhead.

National park
Yangming Park is a lush and vibrant park famous for its stunning cherry blossoms, beautiful gardens, and captivating public art. Visitors can take leisurely strolls through the park to breathe in the natural phytoncides in the air while admiring attractions like the flower clock adorned with live blooming flowers. The park offers picturesque spots for photography, even on rainy days, and provides a serene environment for relaxation amidst nature.
The atmosphere is perfect! It's really peaceful since not many people visited this park when I came here, and the weather is perfect too! There's a flower clock nearby, and many toilets & seatings are available! This park is quite big. There's a waterfall about a 10 minute walk away from here [Datun Falls], and another one nearby. Lots of parking is available, and there's a couple of eating options nearby, selling local Taiwanese food as well as different Chinese food options!

Peaceful & well-maintained park, perfect for families & seniors. Offers ample green space & gazebos for relaxation & recreation.
Note: Inner park areas may not be accessible to wheelchairs or strollers. Public restrooms conveniently located at the main entrance, near the parking lot.
It's beautiful. Lots of hikes. People there are very nice. Get out of the city and enjoy natural beauty.
Is pretty. But have to be early, around 5pm sun will start to set. Becareful that alot of the area is wet. I took 3 to 4 hours to explore around.
Yangmingshan National Park, located just outside Taipei, Taiwan, is a sprawling natural reserve known for its breathtaking landscapes and diverse ecosystems. The park spans over 11,000 hectares and is home to a mix of dense forests, open grasslands, and terraced fields, creating a varied and captivating environment for exploration.
A key feature of Yangmingshan is its remarkable geothermal activity. Throughout the park, you can find fumaroles—natural vents that release hot steam from deep within the earth. This unique geothermal landscape is complemented by a variety of hot springs, which offer visitors the chance to relax in soothing thermal waters amid lush surroundings.
One of the park's most attractive aspects is its seasonal floral displays. In the spring, cherry blossoms bloom in abundance, transforming the landscape into a sea of pink and white. Later in the year, azaleas, calla lilies, and other flowers take center stage, turning hillsides into vibrant patches of color. These seasonal changes make the park a favorite spot for photographers and nature enthusiasts.
Yangmingshan also offers a range of hiking trails that cater to all skill levels. From easy strolls through peaceful meadows to challenging treks up steep slopes, the park has something for everyone. Along the way, visitors are treated to panoramic views of Taipei and the surrounding mountains, providing ample opportunities to enjoy the beauty of nature.
Whether you're seeking a quiet place to unwind, a scenic hike, or a unique geothermal experience, Yangmingshan National Park has something to offer. Its blend of natural beauty, diverse flora, and striking geothermal features makes it a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Taiwan.
This is a good place to go during the weekend. It’s not too far from the city center but I highly recommend you to go by private car as only few bus to there and you may not have any seat to rest when commuting.
The air is so fresh, you can have a whole green view. I really love this place.
You’re in for a nature and historical treat when you visit Yangming Park. It has multiple sections worth visiting, and also educating you on the Taiwanese culture. There are also birds and squirrels roaming around freely. I think a visit of at least an hour would do.
Great picture spots even on a rainy day it's beautiful. It was less crowded and easier to get to specific spots. Little coffee shops and restaurants are available. Not the best so don't come with a big appetite. Other restaurants like The Top (Book in advance) would be highly recommended. 👌

Nanshijiao Mountain, located in Zhonghe District of New Taipei City, offers gentle paved trails through evergreen forests and a visit to the ornate Taoist temple and small shrines. The highlight of the mountain is the huge Earth God statue at Hongludi Nanshan Fude Temple. From the peak, visitors can enjoy stunning views of Taipei 101.
Easy walk with family!
Could see the view of Taipei City.

An easy walk from Nanshan Fude Temple while you can also climb all the way up here from nearby counties. It’s nicely paved and friendly levitated for your half-day weekend revise. Got a gazebo near the peak where you can very much enjoy the view, day and night, with comfortable seat.
Easy hike behind the 福德公 temple.
A nice hour long mountain hike. The first half is all temple stairs, but the second half is beautiful nature, dirt paths.
The sounds of the city can still be heard, but it is still a nice little get away from the city!
Very cool statue, temple, and view of Taipei.
Easy to reach with good view.
Great view and not a hard climb
very good

Very specious park with bike rental on weekends and battery powered toy cars.
It also has sand pit area for kids. Weekdays are quiet and peaceful.
If you just want to enjoy the scenery of the metro and a quiet walk along the river side park with a love one, this is a nice place to go. You can also bike along their bike trail, rent a Ubike, or have a quality time with family for a picnic. Best time to be here is around late afternoon to evening and see the sun sets. In the morning time, you can see people doing some exercise, jogging, and doing ball game sports.
Great place to walking, running, cycling or doing some sports activities
Nice and close to MRT. Can be pretty crowd but most parks in Taipei are crowded.
Good place for football
Very good place for spend time with friends, family and exercising

This area is filled with wooden Japanese-era homes that used to accommodate professors at NTU during the university's Japanese period. Some of these historic buildings have been repurposed into restaurants, cafes, and teahouses, adding to the neighborhood's unique atmosphere.

A taste of the past, this used to be common housing for the soldiers and their families. They've refurbished the interior to several purposes, 1 block has a indoor playground for children, 1 is a bookstore cum cafe cum theatre, the middle block is a museum which I highly recommend. Free to enter, and a good respite from the heat outdoors.
Spent an hr here taking photos and enjoying the aircon. Captions are mostly in Mandarin so might be challenging for people who can't read Mandarin, but still worth visiting, the displays are pretty much self-explanatory, just giving you a glimpse of the lifestyle back then such as the living room, kitchen and mama store. From the courtyard area, it gives a good view of Taipei 101 too.
Feb 2025, There’s construction on the side of view. Photo app is needed.
Nice place for a night view of 101 tower
Our driver took us here as this has the most unblocked view of the entire 101 building that you can take pictures from. We had fun climbing the tunnel grassy structures to pose and take pics of ourselves amidst the background of the 101 building. We saw many families just chilling out around the park as well, sitting on the grassy tunnel structures. There were many historical dated buildings around but we didn't have time to stroll around as we were on a tight time schedule.
The site was very peaceful and clean. Got a goodshot of Taipei 101
Lovely place and a good spot to take pictures of Taipei 101 too. There was a little market with handcraft products which was awesome. Toilet was clean.
Few shops open, nothing much to see. Group of girls just taking some photos.

Coffee store
Comic cafe
Bookinn好憩-無預約訂位 offers a unique and upgraded accommodation experience, reminiscent of Qtime or e-book stores. Upon entering, guests are greeted with a cozy atmosphere and provided with unlimited access to DVDs, comics, magazines, and simple drinks. The individual private stalls are separated by Japanese-style sliding doors, ensuring privacy and comfort. Despite being located on a night market street, the space remains quiet with minimal odors.
(Translated by Google) Surprisingly high-quality simple accommodation
A brief review in one sentence: an upgraded version of Qtime/e comics, or an affordable, quiet and comfortable Internet cafe accommodation.
The atmosphere upon entering is that of a Qtime or e-book store, which provides unlimited DVDs, comics, magazines, and simple drinks. Mainly, a small box is separated by a simple Japanese-style sliding door, and it is stipulated that shoes must be worn outside. The inside is a personal space where you can lie down to sleep and have a computer.
Computer equipment:
The computer's hardware equipment is not top-notch, and the store also has notices that it is not an e-sports desktop computer, but it is no problem to run non-AAA masterpiece games that are not in high demand. The computer has the software system for Internet cafes - Nanfangniao (common Internet cafe systems are Nanfangniao and GWM), so you don't have to worry about spending time downloading to play common games.
shower:
Bathing facilities are provided, but the disadvantage is that the cabinet for storing clothes is very small and has a hair dryer stuck inside, and the hair dryer feels a bit dangerous inside. I think it would be better if the hair dryer could be relocated so that the lockers only hold clothes. Small strips of bath towels will be provided in the shower, and there will be shampoo and shower gel in the shower room. The bath towels will be recycled and cleaned and disinfected after use.
Paid meals:
There are some simple meals, fried food, and instant noodles available for you to add.
Cleaning and disinfection:
The store is very serious about cleaning. I happened to see the store staff disinfecting the used boxes in the evening, and they used alcohol disinfectant. They are very serious.
Privacy and soundproofing:
Japanese-style sliding doors can be fully closed without gaps, so although there is no door lock, the concealment is quite good. As for the sound insulation, since there is no air-conditioning in the box (only an electric fan), the air-conditioning comes from the large central air outlet above, so the top of the box is not sealed. Therefore, the sound insulation will be very poor. It depends on where you stay on that day. Depending on the guest's habits (for example, when I checked in, there was a room where I was watching videos so loudly that I could still play them through headphones), I would mind if I need to bring my own earplugs!
price:
Quite quite cheap! Membership costs 300 yuan for 12 hours, and showers cost 80 yuan. Even if you have never been a member, it only costs 480 to apply for a membership card for 12 hours, including showering. For those who have been members, it only costs 380 yuan for the second time. Regardless of price, It is quite competitive compared with Qtime type or Internet cafe accommodation type!
Overall review:
In terms of simple backpacker accommodation, since most backpacker hostels have sound insulation problems, this hostel wins with better privacy and cheaper price; but on the other hand, the hostel has better beds, The quality of the bathing is great, and it also provides the opportunity to communicate with other travelers and become friends.
Compared with e-sports Internet cafes that provide sleeping, showering, and private rooms, the hardware equipment of this store is greatly inferior, and it is also impossible to use voice software such as discord to play games with teammates; but on the other hand, this store is Quietness is a big win.
Compared with e-book comics and Qtime, it is completely better than those stores. It may be because this store is relatively new and fewer people know about it. But compared to these stores that have been operating for a long time, apart from the fact that they don’t have Coke machines, Others are far superior to them (the environment is also relatively new and clean)!

意外的很優質的簡單旅宿
一句話簡評：升級版的Qtime/e書漫、或者是平價安靜舒服的網咖住宿。
一進門那個氛圍就是Qtime、e書漫這類店家的樣貌，提供dvd、漫畫、雜誌、簡單的飲料無限暢飲。主要是用簡易的和式拉門隔出小包廂，規定鞋子要在外面穿拖，裡面就是個人空間，可平躺睡覺、有電腦。
電腦設備：
電腦的硬體設備不夠頂級，店家也有告示非電競型桌機，但要跑需求不高的非3A大作遊戲是沒問題的。電腦有安裝網咖的軟體系統 - 南方鳥（一般常見的網咖系統就南方鳥跟GWM），所以要玩常見的遊戲不用擔心還要花時間下載。
淋浴：
有提供沐浴設備，缺點是放衣服的櫃子非常小還卡了吹風機，而且吹風機在裡面感覺也有點危險。覺得如果吹風機可以換位子，讓置物櫃只放衣服會更好。淋浴會提供小條的浴巾、淋浴間內有洗髮乳跟沐浴乳，浴巾用完要回收會清潔消毒。
付費餐點：
有提供一些簡餐、炸物、泡麵可以加點。
清潔消毒：
店家很認真在做清消，晚上剛好看到店員在消毒使用過的包廂，酒精消毒水都用出來，算很認真。
隱私與隔音：
和式拉門是可全閉合沒縫隙的，因此雖然沒有門鎖，但隱蔽性算是相當好。隔音的部分，由於包廂內並無冷氣（只有電風扇），冷氣是中央大型的從上方出風口出來，因此包廂的頂部都是沒封上的，也因而，隔音會很差，需要看當天住客的習慣（例如我入住時，就有一間看影片很大聲，是隔著耳機還能放出來的那種），會介意的需要自備耳塞！
價格：
相當相當的便宜！會員12小時300元、淋浴80元，就算沒辦過會員的，花錢辦會員卡這樣12小時也只要480含洗澡、有辦過會員的第二次開始更是只要380，在價格上不論是跟Qtime類型或網咖住宿類型比都相當有競爭力！
總評：
以簡單的背包客住宿來說，由於大部分的背包客棧都有隔音上的問題，這家以更好的隱私性勝出，價格上也是這家更便宜；但另一方面，青旅在床鋪、洗澡的品質上都大勝、也提供跟其他旅客交流當朋友的機會。
與有提供可睡覺、淋浴、包廂的電競式網咖相比，這家的硬體設備大輸、而且也無法使用discord等語音軟體跟隊友一起打遊戲；但也相對的，這家店在安靜程度上是大勝。
至於跟e書漫、Qtime這類相比，是完全勝過那幾家，可能是因為這家比較新、知道的人也比較少，但相比這些經營許久的店家，大概除了沒有可樂機以外其他都是遠勝他們的（環境也比較新、比較乾淨）！

nice tidy net / manga / movie Cafe with individual private stalls. very slight odor but nothing major like smokey. not too loud either despite being on a night market street. rate is about $24 usd a day but you need to buy a member card for $3 and they give you bonus credit for frontloading a few grand NTD at a time. a couple of drink options but otherwise not much in terms of bonuses.
at the start of 2024, they had 12700k with rtx 3060, so nothing too fancy. all the monitors were also 1080p.
Internet is super slow. Pathetic
(Translated by Google) The private room is clean, the air-conditioning is acceptable, and more than half of the guests are young. It's noisy before 24 o'clock, and the service staff will warn you that the extra star is for the employees. Some guests are coughing all day long. It is inconvenient to use the toilet outside. There is one room for men and women, and the shower room is small and they are all together. The beverage area is smaller than that of Qtime Mansion, and the double room is large enough to roll around (huh?), which is an advantage.
(Original)
包廂算乾淨，冷氣尚可，客人一半以上較年輕。24點前比較吵，服務人員會告誡，多一顆星是給員工的。有些客人咳嗽整天，廁所在外面使用較不便，男女各一間，淋浴很小間，都在一起。飲料區比公館Qtime少，雙人房空間夠大夠滾（咦？）算是優點。
(Translated by Google) As a purely internet cafe, I think the prices are quite high, the internet speed is average, and the hardware probably doesn't meet the needs of many gaming enthusiasts (though there seem to be a few dedicated esports machines; you can ask at the counter).
If you're looking for a place to relax and read comics or watch a show, I think it's perfect. It's also very quiet, so you might fall asleep.
The private rooms have small fans, but the large rooms lack backrests, which can be quite uncomfortable after playing games for a long time.
The restrooms, however, really need improvement; they're quite cramped and have a strong urine smell...
(Original)
單純當網咖來看我覺得價格很貴，網速普通，硬體設備應該也到不了許多人打遊戲的需求（但好像有幾台是電競專用，可以洽櫃檯）。
若是要以休息放空看漫畫或是看劇的空間，那我覺得很合適。整體也很安靜是可能會睡著的。
包廂還附有小電扇，只是大包廂沒有靠背的，玩遊戲玩久了蠻不舒服的。
但廁所真的需要改進，蠻窄的尿味又很重……
(Translated by Google) Spending the night at an internet cafe is a very special experience
Because I had a mission in Taipei early the next day, I chose to spend the night at an Internet cafe, which was cheaper than a youth hostel/backpacker inn.
Internet cafe consumption is billed on an hourly basis, and is divided into different billing methods for members and non-members. After 10 o'clock in the evening, it belongs to the late night period, so you can only use the membership model to book the night. To join as a member, you need to pay 100 yuan in advance, and you can use the member's preferential price for each period thereafter.
This store has fully Japanese-style private rooms, and there are no public spaces for computer use. There are not many private rooms, and they are divided into single and double rooms. In addition to the games you can play, there are also comics and magazines you can borrow. If you want to borrow DVDs, you need to show your ID. As for food and drinks, there are some drinks in the self-service bar that you can drink unlimitedly, and other food items are purchased at an additional price. In addition, you can take out food in this store. It is next to Jingmei Night Market, where you can go shopping and eat delicious food. Before leaving, you need to tell the clerk about your estimated departure time and pay a deposit. You can get the deposit back when you come back. There are no trash cans in the private rooms, only small trash cans in the beverage area. If you have personal trash, please hand it over directly to the clerk. The toilet space is only for guests to use. It is divided into men's and women's toilets and shower rooms. If you want to take a bath, you need to add 80 yuan. The clerk will give you towels, toothbrush sets and paper slippers, and help you unlock the shower room. The electric water heater inside can provide about 15 minutes of uninterrupted hot water, shampoo, shower gel and hair dryer are also provided. After taking a bath, you must return the towel to the clerk. If you need to wash clothes, you can contact the store staff again, and you will need to pay more.
Due to regulations, the door of the private room cannot be locked, and the partitions are not completely closed and share the ceiling. This means that the sound insulation effect is basically not good, and the sound of typing on the keyboard next to me can be heard. This time I met someone in the next room in the early morning. I was woken up by playing video games until I forgot about myself and started swearing, so I didn't sleep very well.
Because I arrived after eight o'clock, the overnight package was RMB 290 + taking a shower RMB 80 + the fee from eight to ten o'clock was RMB 92. The total was 462 RMB, which was only slightly cheaper than a youth hostel. Overall, the price is acceptable. If you don't require accommodation, want to maintain a certain amount of privacy and want to save money, this will be a good choice for you.

在網咖過夜是很特別的經驗
因為隔天早早在台北出任務，選擇在網咖過夜，以價格來說比青年旅館/背包客棧還要便宜。
網咖消費是以小時為單位計費，又分成會員與非會員不同計費方式。晚間十點過後屬於深夜時段，就只能採用會員模式來包夜。加入會員需要先付100元，之後各時段都能採用會員的優惠價。
這間店採全和式包廂，無公共空間使用電腦的座位。包廂數量不多，有分單人與雙人兩種。除了可玩遊戲外，也有漫畫雜誌可借閱，若要借DVD需要押證件。飲食的部分，自助吧有一些飲料可以無限暢飲，其他吃的東西都是加價購。另外，這間店是可以帶外食的，旁邊就是景美夜市，可以去逛逛吃美食，離開前要先跟店員講，預估離開時間並付押金，回來後可取回押金。包廂內沒有垃圾桶，只有飲料區有小垃圾桶，有私人垃圾請直接交給店員。廁所空間只提供客人使用，分男廁女廁與淋浴間，要洗澡需加80元，店員會給你毛巾、牙刷組與紙拖鞋，並幫你打開淋浴間的鎖，裡面電熱水器約可提供15分鐘不間斷的熱水，裡面還有提供洗髮精、沐浴乳與吹風機，洗完澡之後要把毛巾還給店員。若有洗衣服的需求可以再跟店員洽詢，需再加價。
因法規關係包廂無法鎖門，隔間也沒有完全緊密在天花板是共通的，也就是說基本上隔音效果不佳，旁邊敲鍵盤的聲音都聽得到，我這次睡就遇到凌晨隔壁間有人打電動到忘我直接飆髒話而被吵醒，所以睡的不是很好。
因為我八點多到，包夜290+洗澡80+八點到十點費用92，總共是462元，只比青年旅館便宜一些。整體來說是還能接受的價格，如果對住宿不要求，想保有一定隱私也想省錢的人，這會是你的好選擇。

The headphones were also not cleaned and felt greasy. The anti-cheat system conflicted with their operating system, but the clerk didn't take responsibility for resolving the issue and still charged me. I checked out and left after 20 minutes. I paid $72 for the experience. If you have too much money, you can go and try it.

Every tiny detail of this art space is well-thought and well-designed, from the furniture picked to the books sorted by their own styles. It was truly an inspiring visit to see such a nice gem existed in the city. The place does serve light food and coffee. Recommend to spend a quiet afternoon and rinse your mind with its exclusive art collection and elegant environment.
Absolutely LOVE this spot. The Alicja Kwade show was fantastic and so was the selection of books at the bookstore upstairs from the gallery. Ended up getting a coffee and flipping through their architecture books for hours. Can’t wait to see what the next show is.
It’s an artful store within cafe service and sharing of books. It’s a little bit far from down town but relaxing is what you need from this place.
Very lovely place, small but good enough to enjoy their arts. Highly recommended.
Very nice architecture bookstore , sometimes with amazing lectures
Great place to study and view exhibitions.
The coffee is not as special as other independent roasters but it’s at a good level.
In fact, it has a really nice seating area and bookstore.
Perfect

(Translated by Google) This small venue consistently showcases high-quality and innovative art of all forms, especially by young local artists!
It's a bit of a walk from the MRT station, but definitely worth it.
It features many works by young Taiwanese artists, including special exhibitions across various media. Although the venue is small and a bit far from the MRT station, the high-quality gallery is well worth a return visit!

After moving to the current location, the service remains as friendly and the quality of the products remains the same.
Not once disappointed so far! 🙂

(Translated by Google) There are a wide variety of products, including herbal tea, shampoo, shower gel, body care products, and massage oil. Fragrance oils, scented candles. Hand lotion.
The products it sells are provided by several major brands and are advertised as the best selection of vanilla. There is more emphasis on natural and healthy raw materials, which can be used with less burden.
This time I purchased massage oils, including stress-relieving and balancing massage oil, aura purifying massage oil, and vitality-relieving massage oil. Under the friendly and detailed explanation of the store clerk, you can also try it on the spot. Since there is a discount for buying two bottles of massage oil at a time, I chose the Pressure Balancing Massage Oil and the Aura Purifying Massage Oil. I mainly want to relax and relieve stress, but also want to purify my surroundings and enhance positive energy.
The reason for giving it four stars is that the store is clean, the exhibition space is comfortable, the service attitude of the store staff is good, and the products can be used with confidence.

商品種類繁多，有花草茶，洗髮精，沐浴乳，身體保養品，按摩精油。香氛精油，香氛蠟燭。洗手乳。
其販售的商品，由幾個主要的品牌提供，標榜香草集精選。比較強調天然，健康的原料，使用起來可以比較沒有負擔。
這次採買按摩油，有緩壓平衡按摩油，氣場淨化按摩油，活絡舒緩按摩油。在店員親切與詳細的解說下，也能現場試用。由於現在一次買兩瓶按摩油有優惠，選了壓平衡按摩油與氣場淨化按摩油。主要想放鬆紓壓，也想清淨週遭，增強正能量。
給四星的理由，店面乾淨，展場舒適，店員服務態度佳，產品使用能放心。

Visitors highly recommend the optometrists for their great service and expertise in helping customers find the perfect pair of glasses.
(Translated by Google) I highly recommend the optometrist Amilia. She was very patient and allowed me to try on many glasses. It took me a while to choose because it was difficult. Amilia did not put any pressure on people and was very kind and considerate. The optometrist was also very professional and attentive. The service process I feel great😊😊I highly recommend getting glasses with her!

I walked in and waited to be helped, while 6 employees looked at me and then went into the back room, and another employee sat on her computer, and nobody even acknowledged my presence. Extremely rude and terrible behavior.
(Translated by Google) A selection store specializing in high-quality glasses, located on the 2nd floor of Taipei 101 Shopping Center
The store space design is inspired by elegant boutique mansions, using round arch shapes and horizontal lines, paired with champagne gold, beige, brown and other colors to create a warm and luxurious atmosphere.
The display cabinets neatly display all kinds of glasses, including a number of internationally renowned brands, including Germany's ic! berlin, advanced customization brand WOLFGANG PROKSCH, American DITA, British-style LINDA FARROW, and LOTOS, known as "the best of the best", etc.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the store is equipped with high-standard Zeiss optometry equipment, which provides a non-sensory optometry experience, can accurately observe the health status of the cornea and lens, and provides professional glasses advice.
The optometrists all have professional licenses, and their service attitude is friendly, making people feel at home.
Not only does it provide a diverse selection of high-quality glasses, it also combines professional optometry services with a comfortable shopping environment

(Translated by Google) I'd like to share my experience pre-ordering the HTC VIVE Eagle here for those who might be interested.
First, let me give you my verdict: If you're looking for high-quality glasses, this store is excellent, with a comfortable environment and professional service. However, if you're here to buy the VIVE Eagle, I think some areas could be improved.
I came here directly to pre-order, not to try the product, but observing the store from the side, the staff's instructions felt like they were following the official process. The interaction felt a bit stiff, lacking flexibility and personalization. Furthermore, the VIVE Eagle comes in two sizes, medium and large, but only medium is available for try-on. If you happen to need the large, there's no way to confirm the fit.
I also chose this store to pre-order because I wanted to use the store's lens service. However, after inquiring, I discovered that even with the discount on the matching HOYA lenses, my prescription would cost an additional 7,000 yuan (they said they'd need custom lenses). Compared to the Zeiss lenses for my Vision Pro that I bought at Apple for only 4,990 yuan, the price difference is quite significant. It's not that I don't want to spend money, but rather that it feels like a poor value for money, with no alternative solutions, which is disappointing.
Add to that the fact that the VIVE Eagle's battery isn't replaceable, and I already thought its lifespan might be limited. Then, having to spend a significant amount of money on lens replacements further reduces the overall value for money.
In summary, eyehaus has been very professional in the field of fine eyewear in 2020, but I believe its current sales experience, understanding, and enthusiasm for consumer smart glasses, whether in terms of product knowledge, on-site planning, or pricing strategy, still requires time to evolve.

分享一下我在這預購 HTC VIVE Eagle 的經驗，給想參考的人。
先說結論：如果是買精品眼鏡，這家店真的不錯，環境舒服、服務也專業。但如果是來買 VIVE Eagle，我覺得有些地方可以改進。
我這次是直接來預購，不是去體驗產品，但在旁邊觀察現場，店員介紹感覺比較像照著官方流程在操作，互動上有點僵硬，缺少彈性跟個人化說明。再加上 VIVE Eagle 有 M 跟 L 兩種尺寸，但現場只有 M 可以試戴，如果你剛好需要 L，根本沒辦法確認合不合適。
另外我選這裡預購，也是因為想順便用店裡的鏡片服務，但實際詢問後發現，搭配的 HOYA 鏡片優惠之後，我的度數還要額外加 7000 元（說是要訂製）。比起我去 Apple 買 Vision Pro 的 Zeiss 鏡片只要 4990 元，整個價差真的蠻大。這不是因為我不想花錢，而是消費感到不划算，卻沒有其他解決方案，會讓人失望。
再加上 VIVE Eagle 電池不可拆換，本來就覺得使用壽命可能有限，結果還要花額外一大筆錢換鏡片，整體性價比就更低了。
總結一下，2020 eyehaus 在精品眼鏡領域很專業，但目前對 3C 類智慧眼鏡的銷售經驗或者對該類產品的認知與熱情，無論是產品知識、現場規劃還是價格策略，我覺得都還需要時間改變。
(Translated by Google) I bought sunglasses here before. The male salesperson had a very good attitude and kept recommending different glasses and explaining the characteristics of each brand. So I bought sunglasses. I just walked in today and met a female salesperson who was not so professional. She recommended 3 brands. She didn't even introduce them except the price. She didn't ask the customer's needs either. The service is really different from before.
