Things to do in Taipei

THE PERFECT TOUR IN TAIWAN! I'm a first-time solo traveler and booked this tour (Yehliu Geo Park, Shifen, and Juifen Night Tour) on a whim. I was nervous to take a tour on my own at first, but I quickly realized that this tour was the best option I could have chosen! Mr. Jeffrey Wu was a fantastic tour guide. Super sweet and great sense of humor! He kept everything organized and we did not have to worry about a thing, phew! This tour specifically was the perfect amount of sightseeing, eating, and souvenir-shopping, and also very convenient because you don't have to wake up too early, depending on how close you are to the pick-up spot. If you're wondering whether you should choose the day or night Juifen tour, choose the night tour! Yes it was crowded (as expected on a Saturday) l, but the food, shopping, and views with the red lanterns are so worth it. Highly recommend this tour, especially for solo travelers!

I went to see the Ryoko Kui and Delicious in Dungeon exhibition 🍖. The exhibition space wasn't huge, but the flow was very well-designed. I felt the pre-sale ticket for 250 was well worth the price. You get a number ticket and can explore nearby until your number is called, then you go in. This means the space feels very open, and you don't have to worry about crowds when taking photos. This is a very important point! 😇 Memorable highlights: - The author seems to be very strict with herself and her work. - It turns out Laios is much taller than I thought. - My favorite character is now Senshi. - All the food models looked delicious 🥩.

​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An absolute must-do in Taipei! Going up to the Taipei 101 Observatory was an amazing experience. The pressure-controlled elevator is insanely fast—it gets you to the top in what feels like seconds. Once you're up there, the 360-degree views of the city and surrounding mountains are breathtaking. Getting to see the massive tuned mass damper engineering up close was a really cool bonus, too. Definitely worth every penny for the views alone!

The glow-in-the-dark slime game exhibition was incredibly fun! My child, who is in first grade, didn't want to leave. The drumming area and the bubble-blowing section were especially great; the bubbles had smoke inside, and when you touched them, smoke would come out—super interesting!

We had an amazing experience in riding the Gondola one day pass. There’s no line on the way up since we arrived early morning. We also had a fun day in the zoo and we were able to see a lot of animals which can’t be seen in our country.

It was easy to buy the tickets from Klook. When you get there you just walk in. The staff inside will guide you where you need to start. Amazing presentation. Very informative. Well worth the price of admission. After the exhibit you can go upstairs and see their permanent exhibit. Another wonderful exhibit.

Just need to scan the qr code from the booking and you'll get your pass for the gondola. The view and the experience was nice even though the Taipei weather was very hot. For Taipei zoo, you only need to scan the qr code from the booking and that's it. Really easy

I have visited the museum multiple times. Other than the regular exhibitions, there are special exhibitions that the museum came up with from time to time. In fact, there are so many exhibits that one cannot cover in just one visit. The audio guide is helpful! With Klook booking, one can enter directly with the QR code.

The recent parent-child exhibition was really good, and the price was quite reasonable. It was super crowded around 1:30 PM on the weekend, so I recommend going a bit later. Visiting after 3:00 PM would probably be a more pleasant experience. You get a hand stamp, so you can re-enter later. I found it quite detailed, with good explanations for the animals in the desert, forest, and grassland areas.
