Things to do in Lin Family Mansion & Garden

The Fun Pass is really useful and great. However, if you try to enjoy all these benefits within a short schedule, your trip might become too exhausting. So, I recommend comparing the monetary value of the benefits you'd get and then making your purchase. For attractions like Yehliu Geopark, Jinguashi, and the Shifen Sky Lantern experience, you might find it more effective to purchase a separate Fun Trip Yehliu-Shifen-Jiufen-Jinguashi (YES FOG JING) bus tour and use them together. Also, as a side note, I recommend adding the Funlab bag-making experience to your itinerary. It's surprisingly fun and provides a cool space for a short break. The wood glue they provide takes a long time to dry after attaching materials, so rather than rushing to sew, it's better to glue the pieces, put them in a plastic bag, carry them carefully, and by the next day, they should be completely dry. Using glue will save you a lot of time.

Online ordering is very convenient, and combined with platform promotions, it's more affordable than buying tickets on-site. After purchasing, you'll need to go to the ticket booth to exchange for your tickets and get a hand stamp. If there are guided tours available, we highly recommend joining one; the explanations will help you understand the many hidden meanings within the architectural installations. It's definitely worth spending half a day visiting. On the afternoon of our visit, the venue was booked for a private event and not open to the public. We suggest checking the official website for opening hours before you go to avoid a wasted trip!

Very easy to book and use. Need to get a physical ticket at the ticket counter on the 1st floor. I went on a weekday to 89th and 101th floor. Unfortunately the weather became cloudy and rainy around the evening time so the view was not that great, however managed get few photos whenever the clouds dispersed. The tuned mass damper on 88th floor was interesting. In my opinion going to 101th floor is not worth it. It is quite small and made like a fern garden. Also the windows are of half length. 89th floor will have much better views with full length glass walls.

Good place to spend a whole day. start from the top and work your way down. the collection is ordered from earliest period on the top floor, and later pieces on lower floors. public transport to get there is easy and cheaper then the sight seeing bus. there are so many pieces there you might want to come another day to see the rest. Do eat before coming here as there is only a small cafe that is constantly crowded. Besides their most popular pieces that people seem to like to view, you will find other pieces you will like I found the gate cups to be the ones I prefer over the popular pieces.

It was a very well organized trip, and everything went smoothly and on time. The bus had air conditioning, which honestly saved us from the heat all day! Our tour guide, Danny, was the sweetest person. always positive, smiling, and very knowledgeable about the history and geography. I booked this big package, so we got to visit so many different places. Some were more of a quick see type of stop, and I’m glad we didn’t stay there too long. I think they arranged the time really well overall. It was definitely worth the money. There’s no way I could have seen all these places if I had traveled by myself. I’m really glad I booked this tour

The location is very convenient, about a 5-minute walk from Zhongshan MRT Station. Once you go up to the 3rd floor, the environment is very pleasant. Although the overall space is not very large, it is cozy and comfortable. Therapists 508 and 217 are both wonderful; they were just as friendly and welcoming even while working during the long holiday, and they always adjusted according to my needs. Highly recommended!

It was really fun, and you can genuinely meet new people! The group I joined had a high proportion of women, and there were foreigners too. The first stop on the itinerary was Yuanshan to redeem a beer. It was quite bitter, and since I'm not a big fan of beer, I didn't really enjoy that first drink. Next, we visited two street-side bars in Xinyi. We redeemed a cocktail plus small snacks at one, and a cocktail plus a platter of fried food to share among a group of five at the other. Along the way, on the bus, with the wind blowing, enjoying the scenery, music, and hot dancing, even the most introverted person would be swept up in the atmosphere and join in the fun!

August 23, 2026 (Sunday) Two years ago, when we visited, it was a sunny day. Today, the weather was very cool, with a light drizzle. However, because of the rain, the roller coaster was temporarily closed, which was a shame because we didn't get to ride it. We rode the Jungle Roar Treehouse (free fall), the pirate ship, the spinning teacups, the Galaxy Express (monorail), the Ferris wheel, the Happy Bumper Cars, and the Space Gyro. It was truly worth the price of admission! My most memorable experience was riding the pirate ship; it was actually very comfortable, and my daughter and I rode it twice. My son was glued to the sandbox and spent an hour and a half there. 😅 We didn't leave until it got dark (6:30 PM), and it was hard to say goodbye.

I think we started at 2pm from taipei terminal, so we went down to the historical place and spent most of the time there. Then after we checked the time on the guide and waited for the bus to take us back to the main station. I really liked that they were also explaining in english about the places we passed by. The best part during this trip was for me was that I get to enjoy the ride during sunset which gave us the perfect city view and we also saw the taipei 101 light up. :))
