Getting to Elephant Mountain is easy, just take the MRT Red Line to Xiangshan Station, which is the last stop, and take Exit 2. You will soon find the Elephant Mountain Trail (in Chinese, Xiang Shan means Elephant Mountain). The trail, also known as the Nangang District Hiking Trail, goes for around 1.5 kms (about 5000 feet). The mountain is 183 metres (600 feet) tall. You can get a good view of Taipei 101 from the mountain. Remember to take a drink and a snack, it is quite a strenuous walk.

Taipei 101 was once the tallest building in the world. From the Observatory you can see most of northern Taiwan, it's quite spectacular -- it's still the tallest building in Taiwan. Take your time to look around. By the way, the elevator will whisk you from the ground level to the top in a matteer of minutes.

We took the metro to the Sun Yat Sen station which is just outside the Sun Yat Sen Memorial Hall. He is widely recognised as the father of modern China and was a physician. Inside the hall you can learn more about his contributions and some history on the founding of modern China. We also watched the changing of the guards in front of his statue inside the hall. The building is designed in the Chinese architecturial style and the grounds outside is big and well kept, like the CKS memorial park.

We walked here after visiting Dr Sun Yat Sen memorial hall. The park has lots of green and scattered around the various buildings were many sculptures, unique stores, cafes and creative arts. When we were there, there were various events and a flea market.

The Assembly Hall is a museum for the Four Four South Village, a former military encampment. It is fascinating to see how primitive the facilities were in the old days when Chiang Kai-shek and his followers first landed in Taiwan from mainland China. There are lots of illustrations and artifacts -- even a picture of the Generalissimo visiting the facility. Chiang never did retake the mainland, so the soldiers and their descendants are still here in Taiwan.

This hall is adjacent to hall 1 and 2 near the Grand Hyatt and is a place that you should visit as many exhibitors showcase their products there.

The Taiwan World Trade Center (TWTC) has been around for some time, but it still makes a favorable impression when you first see it. It is the head office for TAITRA, the body which promotes Taiwan's external trade. You are most likely go to TWTC Hall 1 for a trade show. TWTC Hall 1 adjoins the Grand Hyatt. It is served by the MRT Red Line TWTC stop, which also serves Taipei 101.
