Very recent and clean hostel, helpful staff, good atmosphere. Small amenities but the hostel is close to Taipei 101, and just in front of Tonghua night market. Definitely recommended!
Being the 2nd tallest skyscraper in the world, this is a must-see for all visitors. Aside from seeing the impressive architecture, you can also ride the world's fastest elevators. Open 10am to 10pm.
This is the memorial of former president Tchang Kaï-Chek. Don't miss the guard change every hour. And feed the fish ;)
If you are in Taiwan, you have to eat at Din Tai Fung! Its the most famous restaurant in Taiwan. Their specialty is xiao long bao (小籠包), soup filled steamed dumplings.
One of the largest buddhist organizations in the world founded in 1967. Don't miss all the golden Buddha statues surrounding another big Buddha.
Huge place designed to receive the tooth relic of Buddha and Buddhists from all over the world. The giants Buddha is 108 meters high.
Going in via the dragon mouth and come out via the tiger one will bring you luck, so it is said
Crowded as usual!! Normally takes 3 hours to make a round trip by walking!!!!
Largest lake in Taiwan, great tourist attraction. You can see sunrise and sunset here. But swimming is forbidden, except for the 3km annual race.
Great view of Kaohsiung, but too bad they had to put shops and café inside the building.
Take a bike along the river and rice fields, stop for a strawberry ice cream, enjoy the beautiful scenery on top of the hill.
Don't miss the Tunnel of Nine Turns, Eternal Spring Shine, Swallow Grotto and Tianfeng Pagoda.
Sansiantai Island used to be connected to the land. Now take the eightarch Dragon Bridge to see the Three Immortals.
great night market for insiders ;) always crowded with locals and tourists alike, a great place to make your tummy full and shop for clothes or accessories.
Very good but so much to eat! Menu for 2 people is highly sufficient for 3!
