Taipei Metropolitan Park is right next to Sangchong Metro stop and is the site of the 2020 Lantern Festival. It was only 5 stops for me along the Orange Metro line, very fast to get there. You have to climb up some stairs to get to one edge of the park where you can look down onto the vast, very flat park. Down below it was a carnival like atmosphere with games, food vendors galore for the New Years Festival. It would last till the end of February. Up more stairs was a meandering bridge above it all for a great view of the lanterns and festivities below. Up there on the bridge I entered the ‘Love Tunnel’ of lights. I could see all the lit displays from the bridge and took pics from up there. Would have to return another time to walk to see displays ground level. From up there the name of ‘Taipei Metropolitan Park’ was displayed in massive letters in English on one side and in Chinese on the other side. One display was a mock pinball machine with children rolling giant balls around, in it. Behind the row of food vendor tents on the ground, were two lit tunnels of round lanterns made by school children of Taipei. High up on the bridge, it looked like one long, wide strip of light. Once on the ground, you could walk through these tunnels to view the round lanterns. Everyone was taking photos of them above their heads. The entire park was well organized, well spaced out, and there were toilet facilities in place too. The food tents were in two lines facing each other and offered famous Taiwanese specialties like meat buns baked tandoori style, deep fried king mushroom pieces which battered and fried, are delicious. I really enjoyed this New Years Festival at this park, which was ideal for it.

Quite a distance (ten to fifteen minutes’ walk) from the MRT Xiense Temple Station of the Orange line. It is a mixed Buddhist/Taoist temple, has a history of over 250 years. The temple is primarily devoted to the “God of agriculture (Shen Nong, 神農大帝) ”. Lots of other Buddhist deities and Taoist deities are also been worshiped. Impressed with the beautiful architecture and craft. This attraction is suitable for believers, religion art/ craft lovers, and history buffs. For a foreign tourist, there is no need to make a special trip there.

I chanced upon this place when reading some articles about cats (yes I love cats) and decided to put it in my 'to visit list'. I'm so glad I did visit this 'cat temple' when I visited Taipei. It's located in a residential area, not too far away from the MRT station. It's difficult to miss the temple as it stands out among other buildings. Be prepared to climb up long, steep stairs. While the cats were definitely main attractions, the temple is attractive in its own right - it is beautiful, clean and serene. I'm really happy to know that there's a temple that opens its doors to stray cats and there is actually a room in the back where temple attendants keep and take care of several other cats. They might even let you enter and play with the cats. The cats are well taken care of. The temple is dedicated to the goddess Matsu and there are also other idols present. The artworks are really impressive. If you have time or want to go somewhere off the beaten path where there's something cultural to do/see in the company of some lovely cats, why not visit this place?
