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.

At 101 stories high, Taiwan's tallest skyscraper boasts spectacular views and high-end shopping boutiques including Gucci, Prada, and Louis Vuitton. There's also a Din Tai Fung on the basement level.

Fantastic views of the entire city of Taipei and surrounding region including mountains from the indoor observation deck (360 degree panorama, interactive screen displays to highlight key buildings and landmarks, showing views at different times of day and night), along with a more limited outside observation deck (which gives you the opportunity to look up to see the spire at the top of the tower). Also able to view the ‘damper’, a giant metal sphere designed and tuned to counter-balance exterior forces on the skyscraper such as typhoon winds and earthquakes. Really impressive!

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.
