Taroco
Definitely pack some snacks and water! There aren't many food options inside Taroko, and you wouldn't want to waste time finding a place to eat when you could be hiking or enjoying the views.
I recommend visiting the Eternal Spring Shrine – it's breathtaking! Although it can get busy, the scenery is totally worth it. Just be ready to share that view with others!
Yangmingshan
Check out the hot springs, but do it early! They get super crowded by noon, and it's way nicer when the crowds thin out. I wish I had planned better!
Songshan Cultural and Creative Park
I think the night market nearby is a great spot to grab dinner after your visit. The food is delicious, trust me!
Grab a coffee at one of the cafes before you start your tour. The vibe is relaxing, and it really helped me get into the creative spirit of the place.
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.
Daan Park
If you’re planning to rent bikes, check out the Taipei YouBike stations, they’re conveniently located near the park. Just remember to bring your EasyCard!
Bring a picnic blanket if you want to chill on the grass. It’s a great way to enjoy the scenery and save money on food. I wish I had brought mine.
Wen-Xin Forest Park
Check the weather before you go. A sunny day makes a huge difference; you’ll enjoy the landscape and photo ops way more!
I highly recommend bringing a packed lunch. There are some lovely spots to sit and eat, and it'll save you from overpriced snacks in the park.
Don’t forget to wear comfortable shoes! The paths are great for walking but can be long if you want to explore everything
Taichung Park
I recommend renting a bike if you're up for it! It's a fun way to see more of the park, but make sure to check the bike availability ahead of time. I had to wait a bit.
2/28 Peace Park
Try visiting on weekdays instead of weekends. I went on a Saturday and it was quite crowded, making it hard to enjoy the tranquility.
I recommend wearing comfy shoes; the park is bigger than it looks, and you'll want to explore every corner without sore feet!
Bring your own snacks. There are some food stalls, but I found them pretty pricey. I had a picnic instead, and it was great!
I suggest visiting early in the morning around 8 AM to beat the crowds and enjoy a peaceful stroll around the park. It was super relaxing and less noisy!
823 Memorial Park
My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. The pathways can be a bit uneven and you'll want to explore every corner without hurting your feet.
I recommend visiting the park early around 8 AM to catch a peaceful atmosphere before the crowds arrive. It's a perfect time for taking photos with fewer people in the background.
New Taipei Metropolitan Park
Make sure to visit the eastern side of the park for the best views of the sunset. I couldn’t believe how stunning it was!
If you're into photography, golden hour is your friend! Aim for around 6 PM for great light, trust me, it’s worth it.
I suggest hitting the park early, around 7 AM, to enjoy the fresh air and avoid crowd. It’s so peaceful then!
Don’t buy snacks at the park entrance—way overpriced! There’s a local supermarket just a short walk away... Stock up there instead
