Fantastic 5.0
One of our group day-tours got cancelled, but we were still able to go to Taipei 101 since we reserved tickets. This was one the highlights of our trip to Taiwan. The tower itself is more beautiful and magnificent in person. Even looking up at it from the street was such a sight to see. YouTube videos and postcards do not do it justice. We had access to the 89th Obseravatory Floor and it was worth it. We were able to get pictures prior to getting on the elevator. The 89th floor offered 360 degree views of Taipei and it was glorious. We were there around 5:45 to 6:45 pm and that was perfect for a golden sunset. The floor had a flux of photogenic backgrounds and props, some adorable cafes and treats, a souvenir shop, the Tuned Mass Dumper section, and the elevators to go up and down the tower. This was an unforgettable experience and easily topped some of my prior tower visits in the USA.

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.

Had a great day with my guide Joanna! it was the first day Typhoon Champi hit so Yehliu Geopark was closed, but she took me to Heping Island GeoPark in Keelung instead. this led to a stop at Zhengbin Port Color Houses which i didn't think I'd get a chance to see on this vacation so I'm grateful she took me here. she also got me pastries from a famous bakery nearby. the waterfall is beautiful of course but there are a lot of stairs and it was raining pretty hard so wear good shoes. and the 2 things I was most excited about was releasing lanterns at Shifen and the red lanterns of the alleys and tea house of Jiufen. we got there early so Joanna was worried they wouldn't light up the lanterns, but they did and before 5pm! (maybe because it was getting dark earlier due to the typhoon). she got me her favorite mochi to try at one of the stalls and even helped me haggle with a shop keeper to get a better deal. happy experience with a great guide!

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.

I booked a service for 10 AM to around 2 PM and received a quick response. The directions were clear, making the location easy to find. The reception staff were warm and polite, and the therapist was friendly, skilled, and meticulous. It was an unexpectedly excellent massage experience.

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.

It's a pay-as-you-go service, and while it's only for two hours, it's perfect for young children. The venue has a wide variety of facilities and unique experiential activities suitable for all kinds of kids. The children loved it so much they didn't want to leave, so remember to agree on a departure time beforehand.

All of the amenities are functioning right except the water station, the cold water is not available. A vendo at the snacking area could be also useful. Nonetheless, I had a great experience with Shan Yue and will definitely comeback for more.
