Taipei Cultural experiences

The store for the Shifen Sky Lantern experience is very easy to spot. The service offered is beyond my expectation and provides excellent value for money. It was a great experience, especially when traveling alone, as the owner of the store offers a complimentary photoshoot and video shoot. A very nice experience indeed.

It's a pineapple cake that you just mix, put in a mold, and bake. However, even mixing it required a bit of skill, and I enjoyed figuring out how to make it look nice when putting it into the mold. I also enjoyed talking with people from the same country.

Experience: The end-to-end service was incredibly smooth, and I'm extremely satisfied with the final product. Every step, from reception, makeup and styling, photography, to retouching, was very efficient. Even though it was a weekend and there were a lot of customers, booking in advance helped manage the flow of people, and customers for photoshoots generally didn't have to wait long. Plus, the staff were all very friendly and polite. Overall, it's an excellent experience that I'd recommend to friends and family, especially for first-time photo shoot participants. ☺️

instructor:Vivian was knowledgeable, friendly, and spoke fluent English. She was an excellent teacher location: close to Dr Sun Yat Sen memorial & arts/culture activities nearby. it was a fun activity! we got to make soup dumplings, chicken soup noodles & bubble tea from scratch and got to eat it for lunch as well. Highly recommend this foodie activity for all ages. You receive a certificate of completion of the cooking class as well as the recipes and pics of your experience at the end.

We had a very special and meaningful experience here 💍😚! The staff were all professional and friendly, helping us check and confirm each step to ensure we were doing it correctly and offering advice. There was no pressure, and we had plenty of time to create our pieces! Highly recommended!

The location is relatively easy to find. The environment is clean, comfortable, and tidy, and you can always ask the staff on site if you don't understand something. The process of adjusting the fragrance during the experience was very interesting, and it eventually resulted in perfume. If I have time, I would like to try making other fragrances of perfume again.

I loved this pottery class! The tutors were lovely, helpful and patient. I really can't wait to see my item when the firing and glazing has been completed. Would definitely recommend this experience.

Please do this with your partner! you will not regret it. Our class was hosted by the owner Vic & his partner Lucas. Both of them were VERY sweet and kind. I was worried that the language barrier and me not speaking mandarin might make things difficult, but they were very accommodating & understood a ton of English! even if you don’t speak Chinese, I highly recommend trying this class. initially my partner was very worried about doing everything on her own, but Lucas was incredibly helpful and hands on with helping us if we were ever doing something wrong. The instructions were clear, and the ring making itself felt easy and fun. I was able to make a full sterling silver ring along with my partner that we’ll cherish forever. Thank you so much Mr. Vic and Mr. Lucas! 新年快樂 🫰🏻

We booked the DIY experience and the instructor/s were all so friendly and accommodating. The experience is relaxing and not intimidating at all. They have space for you to hang your jacket and store your bag and they have water and warm tea to drink if you want. The instructor will check on you from time to time and will help you if you need it. The tools and wet ingredients are measured and prepared already and I only had to measure the dry ingredients. The instructions are easy to follow and the pineapple cake I made tasted fresh and different from the common and affordable ones that can be bought as souvenirs. Still tasted good even after 3 days! My partner did the pepper buns DIY and we sat together. They will also take a photo of you to print as a postcard with the ingredients listed at the back. Highly recommended! One of my favorite things to do in Taipei and will surely try this again when we get back.
