Culture Places Map
Culture in Taipei:
National Palace Museum
Museum of the imperial palace
Chiang Kai-shek Memorial
Longshan Temple
Songshan Cultural and Creative Park
My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. There’s a lot of walking involved, and you’ll want to enjoy the beautiful architecture without sore feet!
If you’re short on time skip the workshops unless you’re really interested. I found the exhibitions more engaging plus they’re easier to explore quickly.
The New Taipei City Gold Museum
I suggest visiting on a weekday if you can. It was much quieter, which made the experience so much more enjoyable—no crowds blocking the exhibits!
Check out the free exhibitions! They often have interesting displays outside the main museum area, and you won't need a ticket for those. It's a great way to enjoy some history without spending extra.
Sun Yat-Sen Memorial
The Taipei Fine Arts Museum
The New Taipei City Yingge Ceramics Museum
The museum café has decent food, but prices can add up. I suggest grabbing a quick bite at a nearby local eatery before exploring to save some bucks.
If you have a little time, take a stroll around Yingge town afterward. It’s a charming area with lots of shops selling ceramics and traditional crafts. A great way to soak in the atmosphere!
