5 days in Taipei Itinerary

Situated in a basin between two mountain ranges, Taipei appeals to tourists with its blend of Asian cultures, living side by side amidst Japanese-era mansions and Taoist temples.

Escape the urban bustle at Neipi Beach and Yilan Lover's Bay. Eschew the tourist crowds and head to Meihua Lake and Fulung Beach. Go for a jaunt from Taipei to Ruifang to see Jinguashi Gold Ecological Park about 50 minutes away. And it doesn't end there: browse the different shops at Taipei 101, ponder the world of politics at Presidential Office Building, contemplate the long history of 228 Peace Memorial Park, and pause for some photo ops at Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall.
