Description:

Experience Taipei on a guided tour through this fascinating city. Visit the world-famous Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, watch the changing of the guards at Martyrs' Shrine, marvel at extraordinary art collections in the National Palace Museum, and explore an ancient Taiwanese temple.

Start your journey with a pickup from your hotel and visit the Presidential Square and Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial Hall, erected in memory of the former President of the Republic of China.

Continue to Martyrs' Shrine, which is dedicated to the 390,000 soldiers who died serving their country. Admire the military soldiers standing expressionless like wax statues and watch the changing of the guards ceremony.

Later, head to the acclaimed National Palace Museum, home to a historic collection of Chinese art treasures. Then stop at one of the traditional Taiwanese temples—an active place of worship—and learn why the temple still plays a vibrant role in the life and soul of modern Taiwan.

Conclude your journey with a visit to a local Handicraft Center. Browse through handmade, local Taiwanese crafts and grab yourself a bargain.
