Things to do in Taipei

Soak in Beitou Hot Springs

Follow the smell of sulphur to reach Beitou, an area on the northern outskirts of the city that’s rich in hot springs. With more than 70 springs, plus numerous hotels with their own private thermal baths, it has become a relaxing retreat for locals and tourists alike.

Get creative

The Huashan 1914 Creative Park is a 20th century winery-turned-cultural hub. Old warehouses host live music, pop-up stores and art exhibitions, plus plenty of food outlets. Similarly, the Songshan Cultural and Creative Park, built around a former tobacco factory, acts as an incubator for the local arts community.

Take a hike

Taipei offers glorious hiking trails in its surrounding peaks. A short hike up Elephant Mountain delivers panoramic views of the city and Taipei 101, or complete the whole Si Shou Shan (Four Beasts) hike, and summit Tiger, Leopard and Lion peaks too.
