Travel to Taipei

Taipei offers a unique blend of tradition and progress that feels both familiar and inspiring to Filipino visitors. Once a quiet settlement, it has grown into a modern urban hub while holding on to its deep cultural roots. Sleek high-rises rise beside forested hills, and the city’s night markets—alive with the scent of street food and the glow of red lanterns—sit just around the corner from stylish shopping malls and efficient public transport. It’s a place where centuries-old temples stand beside buzzing tech offices, and quiet parks offer a break from the fast-paced rhythm of the city. For many Filipinos, Taipei is more than just a travel destination—it’s a glimpse of how a city can move forward without losing its soul.

[Accommodation Recommendation] 👉🏻 #TaipeiWanderingHotel 

I have two main points for pop-up accommodation selection ✍🏻
1️⃣Convenience of location 2️⃣Hotel facilities
And for this weekend pop-up, I recommend "WanderingHotel" mainly because of 1️⃣!
✅Convenient access to various attractions
✅Many restaurants and convenience stores around the hotel
✅Affordable price

————————————————————————

🗓️【Itinerary】

Day 1 🔆
Take an early flight on Saturday and arrive at Ximending at noon
First, walk 10 minutes from the hotel
👉🏻"Mingming Noodle House"
Of course you have to eat beef noodles when you come to Taipei❤️
(The pickled cabbage here is very delicious and appetizing and is unlimited🤤)
👉🏻"Dezheng"
After a full stomach, you must have a glass of waste water😌
Must drink~~~~✨Cheese milk cap pecan oolong✨
(My taste is sweet, but this half-sugar is sweet enough
People who don't like sweet should pay attention to the sweetness)

After eating and drinking, I recommend everyone to go
🌟Chifeng Street🌟
This place is full of youthful atmosphere
There are markets and many check-in spots, which is very suitable for Citywalk
And there are many special restaurants hidden in the alleys
Go to the coffee shop in the afternoon Come to an izakaya at night🤟🏻
👉🏻 "Sprinkle. White. Sweet"
The internet celebrity shop in recent years is in this area
Its taste is different from traditional mochi, you might as well try it
And there are different flavors to choose from
I recommend the peanut flavor, which is more fragrant~
On the contrary, the black sesame flavor is slightly less fragrant

Day 2 🔆
If you love Taiwanese breakfast, I recommend
👉🏻"Rui Lin Mei Er Mei"
The hotel is a 5-minute walk away
✨Taiwanese egg pancake✨ Radish cake✨ Soy milk✨
Just thinking about it makes me drool😋Must try~
👉🏻"A Zong Noodles"
Old brand~People who love it will still eat it after many years🫢
👉🏻"Feng Da Coffee"
Coffee shop in Ximending After trying many restaurants, I still recommend "Feng Da"~ This restaurant is loved by locals and tourists ❤️ The strong and fragrant coffee☕️ After drinking a cup of Hui Shen Coffee, you can be full of energy to go shopping in Xinyi District😏😏 This time I also encountered the opening of the "KODAK" pop-up store If you like street style or text T-shirt style, you may want to go shopping in Taipei in the near future😏👍🏻👉🏻 Dadaocheng Braised Pork Rice (Taipei Station) On the weekend pop-up trip to Taipei, I will end with the most delicious braised pork rice I have ever eaten😌😋💓 Every dish in the picture is a must-recommendation for me! No one else😌

A popular restaurant in the Ximen area! Introducing "Steamed Dumplings" where you can eat juicy and chewy boiled dumplings!

⭐️Review
A steamed dumpling restaurant that serves freshly steamed dumplings after ordering. There are two types of dumplings: regular dough and yellow dough with turmeric. It takes about 8 minutes for the dumplings to be steamed. There is a bench in front of the restaurant, so you can sit and wait.

I took the freshly steamed dumplings back to the hotel and ate them, and the meaty pork without any binders was elastic, juicy and very delicious! The dough is also chewy and satisfying. It will fill you up, but they also provide chopsticks and sauce, so it is also suitable for eating on the go👍

If you like boiled dumplings, please go and try them🫶

🧸✨ Pop Mart Ximending – A Hidden Treasure in Taipei! ✨

If you’re a fan of designer toys, collectibles, or just cute aesthetics, Pop Mart Ximending is a must see stop in Taipei. Here’s what made my visit so special:

📍 Story 1: A Toy Wonderland in the Heart of Ximending
Tucked inside the vibrant streets of Ximending, Pop Mart stands out with its sleek design and walls full of surprise boxes. From DIMOO to Molly, every shelf is a visual treat. I spent ages just browsing the tiny art toys that feel like they each have their own personality!

🎁 Story 2: Blind Box Thrill

📸 Story 3: The Perfect Souvenir – Retro TV Display Case
I couldn’t leave without this adorable retro TV-style display for my DIMOO set. It lights up and adds instant charm to my collection. A perfect memory of my Taipei trip that I’ll take home with me 💖

Whether you’re a collector or just want to explore a fun and trendy space, Pop Mart in Ximending is worth the stop!

The Bluebird Bookstore and Cafe complex hidden in Huashan Creative Park is on the second floor of Huashan Creative Park.
I was attracted by the triangular area on the roof at first.
Whether it is sunny or cloudy, it is really comfortable to look up and relax when you are tired.
I also like the single seat next to the floor-to-ceiling window.
You can watch people coming and going downstairs.
There are many books in the bookstore that can be borrowed and read.
In addition to coffee drinks, there are also light meals to enjoy in the store.

I love to shop for old objects and small ornaments. I used to go to Chifeng Street to hunt for treasures. But this time when I came to Dihua Street, I was completely amazed by the Modern Mode Cafe opened by artist Zhong Yao. The space is low-key and hidden in the alley, but when you walk in, it feels like walking into a small selection store on the streets of Paris. Several retro European sofas, wooden dining tables, and industrial iron chairs are placed just right, warm and unique.

This is not just a cafe, but also a selection store. All furniture is old pieces collected by the boss himself from all over the world. The front half of the space is converted into an ornament display area with old tables. It is full of antique necklaces, earrings, ornaments and European-style utensils. You can buy them and take them home. You can own what you like. It is not just a look but a part of life.

I highly recommend it to people who like retro style, treasure hunting, and the old soul. This place has more European warmth and selection aesthetics than Chifeng Street. You will really fall in love with it after a visit.

Emperor Qianlong, one of the longest-reigning emperors in Chinese history, was also a passionate connoisseur of art and collectibles. The exhibition at the National Palace Museum in Taipei showcases exquisite artifacts that narrate the luxurious lifestyle of the royal family during Qianlong's reign. From gold-thread embroidered dragon robes to porcelain, jade, and treasured paintings, each piece reflects Qianlong's meticulous attention to detail.

The highlight of the exhibition is a recreated palace scene that transports visitors back to the Qing Dynasty's imperial court, immersing them in the grandeur of "the emperor's will, the world's provision." It's not just an exhibition but a serene and opulent journey through time.

📍 Location: No. 221, Section 2, Zhishan Road, Shilin District, Taipei City (National Palace Museum)

Qingtiangang is located in Yangmingshan National Park. You can drive by yourself or take bus No. 15 from Jiantan MRT Station.
Qingtiangang Prairie is a vast grassland and the core attraction of Qingtiangang. There are grazing buffaloes on the grassland. The Qingtiangang circular trail is about 2.3 kilometers long and takes about 50 minutes to walk. The trail is flat and not too strenuous. The trail will separate the grazing buffaloes from tourists.
The weather is very important when you come to Qingtiangang. In autumn and winter, it is easy to be foggy at high altitudes. Before departure, you can search for real-time images and decide whether to go, so as not to be disappointed.
