4 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.

Popular historic sites such as Chiufen (Jiufen Old Street) and Taipei Confucius Temple are in your itinerary. Do some cultural sightseeing at National Palace Museum and Ximending. There's still lots to do: browse the different shops at Taipei 101, hunt for treasures at Shilin Night Market, make a trip to Elephant Mountain (aka Nangang District Hiking Trail), and look for gifts at Sugar & Spice Bakery Cafe - Dunhua S. Store Ⅱ.
