Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, is not merely the political and economic center but best-known as an international metropolis abundant with a vibrant contrast of the old and the modern cultures. You are welcomed to immerse yourself in centuries-old temples and historical sites to enjoy the old Taipei. Whenever you want to enjoy the lively side of the city, the modern Taipei is just a short metro ride away – shopping malls, five-star hotels, restaurants and night markets are all within reach.

It is possible to experience the urban and the natural side of Taipei coexisting side by side. Just a few minutes away from the heart of the city, you can soak yourself in mineral-rich hot springs nestled in the lush mountain. And throughout the city there are plenty of trails, parks, and other natural spots for you to discover.

With such a diverse range of attractions, convenient mass transportation and a grand selection of dining and accommodation options, Taipei is a perfectly ideal destination for both 1 day and 1 week stay.
