Outdoors/Walking

  • Elephant Mountain hike — Great for sunset over the city (not too hard, amazing views)
  • Beitou — Recommend if you want your dose of sulfur, and there are hot springs up there too
  • Dadaocheng and Dihua Street — Just wandering through the old neighborhoods is quite lovely (both in the same area)
  • Yongkang Street — I like it for an afternoon, many Japanese go there for some reason

Culture

  • Jiufen — Day trip if weather is good. Show up around 3pm (takes about an hour and a half from city center), sit at a terrace, get some tea for the sunset, then walk around for the super nice red lanterns — feels like you're in a movie!
  • Dihua Street — Nice walking street with many traditional shops, great for an afternoon! https://maps.app.goo.gl/gAHAvFFx6yKs4mwa7

Food/Drinks

Night Markets

Night markets are a must!

  • Raohe — I recommend for city center, get the peper bun at the entrance!
  • Shilin — The big one, but outside of the city (been many years since I went)
