Dalongdong Bao An Temple

dedicated to Paosheng Tati, the God of Medicine

Reviewed By PaulSiow - Petaling Jaya, Malaysia

We visited this temple after visiting the Confucious temple nearby. The temple looks old with intricate carvings and ornaments on the roof. Many people prayed here and it was fairly smoky due to the many burning joss sticks.

Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts

Reviewed By 291genej - Silver Spring, United States

We took the Fuxing Shuttle from Kaohsiung Station to KMFA Station and walked 950 m northeast to this museum. Built in 1994 with a 90 acre surrounding park, both with the purpose of exhibiting sculptures. The lobby attendant checked our passports and permitted free entry as seniors to the permanent exhibit. After passing through the huge 4 floor Sculpture Hall, featuring a 6th C 10' marble Buddha, we saw successive rooms with undulating screens, multi media exhibits utilizing virtual reality masks, or manipulation of objects to personalize pictures, and one hall devoted to calligraphy. These are very creative exhibits that ventured into unfamiliar territory for us; very worthwhile and fascinating.

Reviewed By stevekyne - New Taipei, Taiwan

Admittedly were lucky to be visiting during the Taiwan Biennale, which was superb. But putting aside the current major exhibition, the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts is a great example of a public art space. In particular its permanent exhibitions on the third floor with exemplary accessibility aids, has to be commended. Loved our visit, and will definitely return.

National Taichung Theater

Reviewed By JensTetz - Berlin, Germany

I loved the architecture of this theatre. It's a very stunning example of modern architecture in Taiwan and it makes fun to walk around an discover all the details. The expanse of water on the front is also nice for taking photos with reflections of the building. You can go inside and walk on your own through the public places of the theater – and it looks nearly more interesting from the inside. Don't forget to visit the roof-top! You have good views to the surrounding high-rise buildings.

Taroko Park

Reviewed By wendywang1016 - Taipei, Taiwan

This is an amazing driving kids friendly park! One day admission is 200ntd for kids 6 years and under, which I found it very cheap! Single ride ticket isn't expensive too, usually can go in group of 4 with extra 2-3 dollars (us dollars =30ntd) We spend too much time in the mall, when we find out the attractions, the kids (2 and 4 years old) were so excited. Kids can drive by themselves! Real driving not just on tracks. Driver license will be issued based on scores (whether you follow traffic rules,points get added or deducted) Highly recommended for kids all ages!

Metro Walk Shopping Center - Taoyuan

Reviewed By 519irwinc - Fresno, United States

On our 1st day after arriving from Honolulu(after a Tokyo night layover), we took a taxi ride from the Novotel Taoyuan Airport Hotel to this multi-story shopping mall. Arriving an hour earlier than they open, we walked around the neighborhood and visited a Hi-Life convenience store and had a Chinese Baked Bao. Upon opening at 11am, we entered the Metro Walk Mall and spent 4 hours walking from the basement floor, taking the escalators and elevators up the various floors to see hundreds of shops selling LG appliances, Nike and Timberland clothing, Apple products, H&M merchandise, jewelry, shoes, clothing, Lego, toy shops, and a multitude of dining choices and different foods and pastries. On the top of the mall is the Skywalk and includes a cinema with many movies to view.

Holy Family Church Taipei

Reviewed By NeptuneAThome

English mass is on sunday 9.45am. It is a short walking distance from Dongmen Station exit 5, next to Xinsheng Elementary School. We used google map to navigate but unfortunately we started from Daan station. It took us a good 30 mins walk or maybe longer only to realise mass was over. We did not enter the church as there was an ongoing chinese mass. But from the booklet on the church there are 18 stained glass windows painted by french artist. Church was completed in 1878. Statue of Our Lady came from Belgium. There were also a Nativity manger prepared foe Xmas when we were there -15 Dec 2019. We will visit again now that we know how to get there and the english mass schedule.
