What a great memorial hall park secluded in the middle of an ever busy city. The center piece of the hall is flanked by two traditional Chinese building structures. Entering into the park, I was met with a wide open space. After an hour or so covering most of the park ground, I thought this is just what the residents of a overcrowded city need during any day in the week to enjoy a short walk in a winding path through a carefully arranged garden dotted with trees and flower beds; or to reserve admission to art exhibition or performing in one of the two traditional Chinese building structures; or to stroll along the not-too-long corridor along the side of the garden. It's not like the other parks that are always filled with people, pets, bicycles, sounds from children playing and loud noises from motorcycles zooming by. Seemingly the walls around the park were not there to barricade, but to create a peaceful land for people to come enjoy. Although the size and surroundings cannot be compared to those of the Lincoln Memorial or Constitution Gardens in the US, but I found the same feeling of solace, tranquility or whatever you could describe the calm state of your mind pacing myself in this park. I wish the park authority could replace some of those cold cement slab in the square into some warm green lawn.

The experience of witnessing the changing of the guards at this historic site was truly captivating. The precision and ceremony of the event were impressive. The landmark itself holds rich cultural and historical significance. While it's a definite must-see, I would have rated it 5/5 if there were more informational signs or guided tours to provide deeper insights into its history. Nonetheless, a visit here is highly recommended for anyone exploring Taipei!

Main destination for All traveller at Taipei. Huge historical place n landmark in central of Taipei. Inside of the museum there be a soldier ceremony on each times. Outside park There be large hall n gardens with fish pond. Very clean and tidy for the public place. The Architectures of Chinese building very well maintained. Lot of guide sign inside so you won't get lost. Reachable by all public transportation especially by MRT.

Such a grand and awe inspiring memorial. It has a meditative ambience which can be very calming. By sheer luck, I stumbled on the guard changing ceremony which was really cool. The views from the memorial are also quite pretty. The surrounding area is worth exploring as the other buildings are beautifully designed as well, including the gates.

日本にいるとふんわりとしか知らない台湾の成り立ちを色々と理解できる、貴重な資料をたくさん見られる記念堂でした。とくに蒋介石さんの歴史、足跡をたどれるので台湾に対する理解が深まると思います。 また4階から広場を眺める景色はとても壮大で、晴れている日で暑い時期で無ければ最高だと思います。 (Translated by Google) It was a memorial hall where you can see a lot of valuable materials that can understand various things about the origin of Taiwan that you only know about in Japan. In particular, I think that you can deepen your understanding of Taiwan because you can trace the history and footprints of Mr. Chiang Kai-shek. Also, the view of the square from the 4th floor is very magnificent, and I think it is the best if it is a sunny day and not a hot season.

Always a great place to visit when in Taipei. Chill park on the side with benches to kick back and relax and enjoy nature. Come early (9am) to see the doors open to the hall and witness the changing of the guards, and get a close up view of the monument. There are also museums/galleries at the 3rd and 1st floor worth visiting especially during summer when it is scorching hot outside. Highly recommended.

Could spend forever in the exhibits on the bottom floor learning about 中正, such an interesting guy. I've been a few times, seen the guard change many times as well, always very cool. But the ting that always impresses me is the shrouding gardens, so amazingly beautiful, also you can buy koi food and feed the fish, such a nice experience

One of the must-visit destination and tourist spot when you’re in Taipei city! Chiang Kai Shek Memorial Hall is a unique building designed monumentally with the characteristic of the dome and a beautiful setting. When you’re here, you can watch the honorable guard changing every hour, and then take a look at all the exhibition not only the history of Chiang Kai Shek but also the history of Taiwan, together with many other exhibitions can make you spend hours in here. The outside area around the memorial hall is Zhongzheng park with a harmonious garden design. Walking in the premises, visitors will admire the unique and traditional garden style. In addition, the park is free for public and of course the best place for people from senior to junior to gather, enjoying the spacious and pleasant space. But not only that, located within the memorial site is the National Concert Center and the National Theatre. These are two outstanding projects in the campus. The place is chosen have attracted many art exhibitions, outdoor performances, drama, dance on weekends, as well as international performance every year.

What a beautiful place build to remember someone. This memorial hall is nestled right in the city with good access to public transportation. An interesting fact discovered my daughter. There are a total of 89 steps towards the memorial hall. Need to fact check on this. There is a beautiful lake for kids to feed the fishes. We had fun discovering this place.

The changing of the guard was impressive to see but by the end of it, I was in need of A/C. After a drink downstairs, I was ready for the audio tour. It focused on the freedom fighters. Some of the stories were quite moving. The English audio didn't always match up with the displays which were entirely in Chinese for the first half. It would have been nice to learn about Chiang's life in chronological order.

It was the first place I visited in Taipei, and I was amazed at the intricate details of the buildings. I went there mid-July, in the afternoon. It was very hot and humid that I decided not to go inside the memorial hall anymore. I had a good view from the distance. I highly recommend that you visit here when it’s not summer so you can stroll around the place without passing out from the heat. Sans heat and the glaring summer sun, the entire complex was truly beautiful. Very clean too!

Very interesting landmark with alot of history both good and bad depending on who you ask in Taiwan. Memorial is beautiful and a must visit. Make sure you go at the top of the hour to see the changing of the guard. Pretty neat to see

It’s a really impressive landmark and probably one of the most famous ones in Taipei. Went there on a really sunny and warm day so it’s recommendable to bring a sun umbrella to take photos from the outside or to take a stroll around the courtyard. The changing of the guards every full hour is really impressive. Because of the stairs and the crowd I’d go upstairs a little early so you don’t have to hurry up the stairs. At the ground floor (which has ac) some souvenir shops and also some galleries and exhibition.

Majestic place to visit. There are exhibitions at the building on the sides of the parade square. Good to come earlier in the day, less crowded and not too warm.. Change of guard ceremony happens every hour. Take time to enjoy the garden around the vicinity too! There's sakura trees at the back garden of the memorial hall and the signs show that they bloom in January each year

Despite the heavy rain, I was able to get a glimpse of the Chiang Kai-Shek Memorial. I went inside there, and boy, there were so many people all wanting to take pictures of the nationalist leader of Taiwan. Luckily, no tickets are required, because anyone can go there. All in all, it's pretty amazing to say the least, architecturally.

Must-visiting museum if you're interested in history and ancient culture. This is one of the biggest museum in Asia where still remain and exhibit many treasures "White cabbage", "Pork meat", etc. The theme will be changed every season. It's free admission for student, you need to bring your student card. It also provide the audio guide/demo in many languages. You can borrow at the ticket booth. The staffs are friendly and professional. From the entrance to the bus stop takes approximately 5 min walking.

Very nice museum with many beautiful peaces of art. If you are passionate about I would suggest to book an audio guide or a guide. The AC temperature could be rise up a bit. IT was very cold inside especially when outside is 40 degrees. . I suggest you to bring a jumper.

For museum nerds and historical story geeks out there, this is an absolute must go place when you visit Taipei. The national museum collects various historical treasures of China in here. The ticket can be purchased in the front with fee 350twd. You can just spend half a day in here easily since there are many floors and exhibition areas to explore. Recommended to arrive early at 9am, after 10-10.30 there will be a lot of tourists coming in.

Good museum with exhibits focused mostly on calligraphy and Jade. The Jade cabbage is the main attraction, but there are many other interesting pieces if you look hard enough. Limited placards in English, so you may be using Google translate quite a bit, however they do have an audio guide available in English for a small fee. Overall it was a decent experience, but I recommend seeing only the highlights if you have limited time in Taipei.

This place was soooooo nice. Clean. Comfortable and kind of silent that I’m looking for after stranded in Taipei City. The ticket was free for students and we can learn a lot of stuff inside. They also have audio guide that we can borrow in the counter.

It is one of the largest museums in Asia and it has many artifacts related to various dynasties of China. It has many sections to see. Souvenir shops are one the best attraction of the museum. It has a prayers room for Muslims. My advice is to visit there with an audio guide or guide. Well connected to public transportation. Recommended visiting.

Amazing experience to see the treasurers of China!! Very open area, exquisite building, and an incredible collection of Chinese history. Realizing that I was mere few feet away from items that were several millennia old was mind boggling!

Why do you close at 5pm? It is too early. Beautiful museum with amazing artifacts brought from China. The government at the time wanted to protect these artifacts from the Japanese invasion and from the cultural revolution which was destroying many of the Chinese past cultures. I loved the paintings. Check out the ivory ball made; it has several concentric spheres all made out of one single piece of ivory. Do not forget to visit the cavage and pork meat sculptures; they are really beautiful and well made.

This is a must visit attraction if you are coming to Taipei. With 3 storeys of exhibits, do plan with minimum of 2 hours before coming over. Additional duration if you are bringing any elders. There's couple of souvenir shops n a nice cafe which we had our lunch break b4 we continue the tour. Do bring a windbreaker or jacket as the AC are pretty chilling.

This museum is definitely in the top three that I have ever been to. I arrived just after opening on a weekday. No line. Purchased my ticket, rented an audio headset, and walked in. Workers were very friendly and helpful. It was suggested that I begin on the top floor and work my way down. The museum is very spacious, clean, well organized, with exhibits divided by time periods and categories with sone interactive displays. I would definitely recommend this museum as it was one of my highlights visiting Taipei.

An amazingly beautiful, great museum to visit in Taiwan, definitely a must! The building itself is a work of art, from the gate to the inside, everything is beautiful and so picturesque, so many awesome picture spot with a lot of knowledge to attain inside. The museum has both chinese and english information for each exhibition so it's very easy to understand especially for tourist. Transportation also easy, go to Shilin MRT station, exit 1, from there only 1~2 mins walk to the bus station. A lot of bus options. The bus stop is right in front of the museum. From the museum, it's also incredibly easy to go to the bus stop (there's even a bus stop inside the museum area) which you can use to directly go to Shilin Night Market. For the ticket, it was a bit expensive ($350) but i do believe it is worth the price with so many exhibitions inside, if you have Taiwanese ARC, you can get a discount to $150, and if you are a Taiwanese student, the ticket is free! (Please check the website or ask the museum before visiting as price may change)

The museum is very neat and well managed. the museum is good for art connoisseurs or for those who want to know the treasures of china in the past. From this museum, visitors will know more about relics and history. on the bottom floor, there is an area for children. This area uses interesting technology to introduce historical objects. the ticket price is 350nt for adult. There is moslem prayer room near the children area.

Was expecting a lot more of the visit. Majority of the exhibits were from the China emperor's collection. Artifacts were largely dated back < 1k years hence not greatly ancient. For an enormous place like this and with the entrance fee charged, was expecting more. The exhibits are spreaded over a few rooms in 3 floor area. No food is allowed and the wardens may check one's bag. Water bottles are allowed and there are multiple water coolers available for visitors to fill up. Toilets are also very conviniently reachable on every floor.

The National Palace Museum in Taiwan is a must-visit for all tourists in Taipei. The museum presents an amazing and comprehensive display of Chinese history and culture. However, visitors should be prepared for the extremely cold temperature inside the museum - bringing a small jumper or jacket is recommended. The staff at the National Palace Museum are super nice and helpful, and everything is presented in English, making it easy for non-Chinese speakers to understand and appreciate the exhibits. While audio tours are available, it's better to read the descriptions as the audio spots are limited even in the English language. The museum is also an excellent destination for families with children. There is an interactive children's book available at the entrance, and the museum has spots and activities all over for kids to learn and play. Many families with children have enjoyed the museum, thanks to its engaging and educational exhibits. Overall, the National Palace Museum is a great place to learn about Chinese history and culture, and it's an experience that shouldn't be missed.

This is a must visit place when in Taipei. Getting to the museum is relatively easy by public transport. This is most easily done with the red line of the metro and then transfer by bus. the number 255 is recommended, but there are at least 6 other buses that will stop you in front of the museum. You can buy a promo card from the klook app, this way you will optimize your expenses and also make it easier to travel by public transport. The museum itself is excellently organized, huge halls, well arranged and with very detailed information. You can additionally get a translation with headphones as you walk through the various halls, as well as hire a guide to pay even more attention to the history of the museum. I recommend allowing between 120 and 180 minutes for the visit and separate time for transportation.

Great Chinese history back to a few thousand years, so amazing words can hardly describe, you have to see it to believe it, calligraphy, handicraft and more..... All are well presented. One of the best history collections in the world, I strongly recommended and it's a must visit attraction.

There was a large collection of imperial artefacts from the Qing dynasty and the legendary siobak (braised pork belly) and cabbage Jades. The place was really large and had some interactive exhibits. Toilets were clean. There was also a beautiful garden next door which had nice views of the mountain and a koi pond.

Third time to Taiwan. This is a must! Lots of history preserved here and very well exhibited! Pottery, manuscripts, maps. So much to see. Take the better part of a day to explore then spend some time in the gardens!

Amazing museum of Asian art and culture. So many beautiful pieces from China that date back many centuries. With works in stone, bronze, ceramic, and many beautiful works of art and calligraphy, there is a lot to see. The Jade cabbage might be the famous piece here but there is so much more to see. The self guided tour headset is worth getting and is useful no matter what order you visit the exhibits.

Great museum with lots of artifacts and history of Taiwan. A great place to visit and learn. The overall area is beautiful and they have a nice garden and pond area to walk at. Went on a Saturday so it was a bit busy just be prepared of you plan on a weekend visit.

One of the must visit places in Taipei, every time am in Taipei. My 4th visit and I still love the experience. So many artifacts to see. The collections are huge. Definitely must visit when in Taipei.

The night market is situated near Jiantian MRT station. The night market spread over the large area and it has cosmetic, food stalls, clothes, sports, watches, piercings sections. The night markets offers deliciously cuisine at affordable price. The night market is usually crowded at weekends. The night market has one beautiful temple. You need to take care while walking because the roads are home to scooters too. I didn't find Any restroom at the night market.

Large night market for shopping and eating! There are the roadside stalls, the carts along the road, and the market area where the food stalls are located at the basement and game stalls on the 1st floor. Must try the stinky tofu! Good variety of local food. Popular with tourists. Convenient location via MRT or bus.

It's better to enter at Jianan Station to reduce the amount of walking. We ended up entering the rear night market, and it was quite crowded. Nevertheless, we relished all the food options. I must highlight the superb wintermelon tea, a definite 10/10. We also had the chance to sample the chicken, and it was well worth the wait.

This night market is the best! There are so many good food options. I came here on a Monday night and the crowd felt just right. It was lively but not overly crowded. I got crab legs, king oyster mushrooms, black pepper pork bun, stinky tofu, and beef cubes. Everything was really good. There are long lines for the king oyster mushrooms and the black pepper pork buns but they are worth it. Especially the mushrooms! You can eat on the temple steps. It's pretty relaxing to either eat there or in another food line. Also fun fishing games too!

This famous night market in taiwan is in Shi Lin District of Taipei. All souvenir items, and taiwan's best tasting street foods, fruits, and ready to cook foods from seafoods to chinese noodles at the basement. Souvenir shops and other chinese novelty items are also sold here....For greater bargains for souvenirs of taiwan... a must visit...

Variety of street food here. Love the fried chicken, fish ball but most of items I tried are nice. There are lots of game to play and you will get nice doll if you win.

Went there just for their stinky tofu! The stall is not hard to find as you can smell something funny from far, which I think is the best indicator! It is nearby the red lantern temple. Tasted sooooo good!! Also the market is huge, full of street food vendors, clothing shops, arcades and even massage area! A must visit in Taipei!

It is crowded but definetly a nice nightmarket vibe! Also with the beautiful temple... I had a lemon juice, fried stinky tofu (try it at least once!), corn dog (so yummy) and grilled squid. Moreover, here are nice shops and also some candy shops with traditional candy for children. Really recommend that!

Shilin Night Market is one of the most popular night markets in Taipei, and for good reason. The food here is some of the best you'll find in the city, and it's definitely worth a visit. However, coming here after COVID, I did notice a significant decrease in the number of stalls available, which is the only reason I didn't give it a perfect score. Despite the decrease in the number of stalls, the food at Shilin Night Market is still amazing. There are plenty of must-try dishes here, but the standout for me was the fried chicken. It's crispy, juicy, and perfectly seasoned. Additionally, there are plenty of fair-style games to play, which can be a lot of fun. One thing to note is that the market can get incredibly crowded on weekends, which can be overwhelming. However, if you visit during the week, it's much more manageable, and you can enjoy the food and games without feeling too rushed or stressed. Overall, Shilin Night Market is definitely worth a visit if you're in Taipei. While there may be fewer stalls than there were before COVID, the food is still some of the best around, and there are plenty of fun activities to enjoy. Just make sure to visit during the week if you can to avoid the crowds.

Street food haven! This night market is for those curious and adventurous with local street food. My recos include sausage with rice bun, pork bao (caution: piping hot!), and passion fruit iced tea. The fried chicken was just OK. Stinky tofu was unbearably smelly.

visited on a weekday and was surprised at the huge crowd too - most stalls are up and running as compared to post-covid recovery period and the streets are bustling and atmosphere was good!

Iconic night market of Taiwan and hence it’s very crowded with tourists. In some streets it’s crowded till borderline stampede. There are long queues for both the fried chicken stalls. However, the fried chicken is not very special, the batter is not crispy and too sweet. Chicken was tender though. Will recommend their cold noodles and $16 Shanghai Bao, it’s cheap but the quality is surprisingly there. Many fried milk stalls around for you to try too. Worth a try but not what I expected. Can do a fortune reading too, at the outer edge of the market. One try for $10.

The world famous shilin night market was closed during my visit there for renovations so I had to visit the stalls that are in the area. The stalls do not disappoint me. Smelly tofu with duck blood was insanely good. Oyster omelette was unusually good too, I tried the omelette elsewhere years ago and it wasn’t to my liking. But this stall is good. It is crispy and flavourful. Do plan your trip ahead and check if the renovations are done. The basement night market houses more food and it is always a pleasure to eat and walk through.

My favorite of the 10 night markets I visited in Taiwan. The market is spacious with lots of room to roam around to different food stalls and explore. They had lots of options for food and I even found plenty to enjoy as a vegetarian (quail eggs, Korean cheese dog, steamed buns, mung bean drink, cheese corn, etc). I highly recommend visiting.

Visited on 21 august from 430 to 630 pm. A lot of stores were closed due to coronavirus and lack of visitors but even at that early time there were a decent amount of food vendors open. Overall not very crowded with people. The underground food market was very sparse but the games area still had plenty of booths open to include shooting and throwing games and fish catching. Highly recommend the super cute Totoro egg biscuits!!!

One of the happening night market in Taipei, beware not to be scam by the market entrance part which seems sketchy. Walk to the back where the real night market unveiled. There you can find many local street food. Personal favourite was the Michelin rated pepper pork bun!

A really nice night market at the heart of Taipei — a lot of things to eat and buy. The real taste of what Taipei’s evening has to offer. Not to be missed during your itinerary to this wonderful city of wonderful commercial activities and people!

Probably the biggest night market, a giant network of intersecting streets, filled with food, games and merchandise. Walking or more like wandering though this area, I feel like a fish swimming in an ocean of food, eating and drinking my way though the current, like a blue whale scooping up plankton. Buy a beer at 6pm and wander for hours, get those steps in till the market closes up by 11pm. You've never gotten so much exercise just from eating dinner. Plus with the active calorie burn and sweat loss, rehydrate with another beer from seven 11! Don't forget to mix in water. (Gatorade or Pocari Sweat, if you aren't getting enough ions, though you should be getting plenty of salts with the foods). If that's not enough exercise, hit one of the many balloon darts games, of better yet the archery games! For those with less upper body strength, duel weld airsoft pistols for extra excitement!

The largest night market and most famous. There are long lines for some of the most popular food dishes but you don’t have to wait that long. Some of the food we tried were fried milk, pork pepper bun, beef cubes with pink salt, oyster omelet, pork ribs medicinal herbal soup, and mango shaved ice. Prices were cheap.

Another bigger night market in Taipei. Lots of traditional Taiwanese food vendors with something for every taste. Compared with other night markets, this one also has an area with vendors of toys, clothing, souvenirs and so much more. You can easily spend few hours here and of course after getting tired of walking, recharge with some delicious street foods. And don't forget the streets around the market, these also packed with lots of stores and eateries.

Main tourist night market, the place is packed with food and a carnival style fair with games for the kids. Great for kids, just be aware not all games are appropriate, and people do smoke in the carnival area. Exits into the food market and temple area.

Really neat market area! Lots of street food and plenty of shopping off to the side. Carnival style shops all in one area that kids would like and some grown kids too. Great place to try little bits of food from stalls. The entire place pretty much smelled of stinky tofu all the time - if you like that then great. Definitely worth checking out but if you don't care for crowds make sure to go right at dark.

Famous night market in Taiwan. It's a very big market. There are quite a lot of food to choose from. Unfortunately, it is a very crowded market. Makes the desire to buy various foods less. This market has a check-in point in the middle of the market. It's a large LED sign. Then there will be a little tiger pretending to come down below.

Shilin Night Market is a night market that offers both food and clothing. The market is not too large, allowing for a leisurely stroll. There are several famous stores here, such as the grilled mushroom stall, where you must queue, but the wait is not long. It's guaranteed to be worth the wait.

This is supposedly the biggest night market in Taipei but it definitely felt smaller than Raohe, perhaps because the underground food court is renovating. Some noteworthy foods include the oyster omelette, 小酥饼 and sweet potato balls. The papaya milk is good too but sweeter compared to others I’ve tried, not sure if they added sugar.

Taipei's vibrant night eats & shopping! Dive into delicious street food (try the stinky tofu!), browse endless stalls for trinkets & clothes, & soak up the electric atmosphere. Cash only for most vendors! #TaipeiNightlife #FoodieParadise

This place is full of good vibes. If you want to see natural environment just visit this place. It has sulfur containing hot springs but not allowed to bath. Gives a good view and sulfur smell. Keep a raincoat and jacket because it’s quite windy and rainy.

Park with beautiful landscape, flora, and fauna, sulfur springs, trekking tracts, grassland. You can get geographical information about the formation of mountains and sulfur springs from the tourist information centers. Try to carry a jacket, good pair of shoes, a raincoat, water bottle before going there. Weather is unpredictable. Well connected to public transportation. One of the best natural parks in Taiwan 🇹🇼

1. It's a big National park and natural. There are 12 sections. 2. To get there, take a bus line 260 from Taipei main station (Opposite) to Yangmingshan bus terminal. From there, take another bus line 108 and drop at Mount Qixing. 3. You can start hiking from there. 4. Recommend to check the weather before you go there.

The place is so pretty especially the flowers, there's a lot of areas to take pictures. If you're not familiar with the place, it is a hiking trail bearable when you're ready for hike but I don't think it is good for tourist who don't want to hike for 30-40mins. It has up and down road so you have to be careful and wear comfortable shoes.

Good place for trekking. If you decide to trek better to prepare for lot of steps and good pair of shoes and not too heavy jacket.

Yangmingshan National Park is located between Taipei and New Taipei City. The national park is known for its cherry blossoms, hot springs, sulfur deposits, fumaroles, venomous snakes, and hiking trails, including Taiwan's tallest dormant volcano, Qixing (Seven Star) Mountain (1,120 m). This mountain range was originally called "Grass Mountain" .Yangmingshan National Park has a lower elevation. Even though mountain elevations range from only 200–1120 meters, beautiful landscapes such as ridges, valleys, lakes, waterfalls and basins are abundant.

the scene is just so beautiful that I've been fall in love with it😍😍 really attracted by all the things in this beautiful place, and I spent a happy and relaxing time with my friends, tired but worthy hope I can go there every week ,if there is any place I will suggest to my friends to watch the sunrise, definitely Yang Ming Shang will be the first place !! always a place I will feel so in love, maybe it is the place I feel with this beautiful feeling 🥰

Amazing view! Went in the morning and ended in the evening. Need to plan your route well. Went during December, and it can get pretty cold. Make sure to be appropriately dressed. Also, it gets pretty steep depending on the route you take. If you are taking public transport, do take note of the frequency of the bus. Usually, it takes around 30-45 minutes. There is very limited capacity on the bus. Those waiting at the later bus stop will not be able to get on the bus if the bus is filled. Will have to keep waiting until there is space for you to board the bus. Be prepared to spend a lot of waiting time will be spent on waiting for public transport.

Amazing trail, good for all levels of hikers. The northern trail to the peak is easier for ascending, the southern trail much steeper and longer. We took the southern trail to ascend this time, definitely more tiring, but we could enjoy the descending part more (to the northern entrance): much better scenery and less effort because we were on the way down.

The best place i have visited on the earth until now after ( makkah - Saudi Arabia) You thinking and imagine you are in the real paradise literally My local friend take me there with her scotter and I was shocked by the beauty of the view There you can find restaurants and parking and All facilities are available near to you Must visited in Taiwan Highly recommended 👌

1st stop for our mountain tour. Place is nice and clean.but not that much flower when we came today because its also cold season.

Going to the park for the first time is refreshing. The sceneries were astounding even though I visited during a rainy and foggy weekend. To fully enjoy all parts of Yangminshan, one or two visits would be recommended.

I went with a tour guide, which brought me up the mountain with a tour bus. I think there are many hiking trails so you can hike up the mountain too. There’s a lot of scenic spots there, like hot springs and an active volcano. I recommend to plan your trip there or follow a tour guide. There are also restaurants in the mountains so you don’t have to pre pack lunch or dinner. Temperatures up there is about like 4-6 degrees colder than sea level. Overall very nice place with beautiful views so a must visit place in Taipei

Be careful !!! I had a great time BUT the Qixing trail can be dangerous. The trail is steep and unforgiving, so leave with plenty of time before sunset. We took longer than expected due to the difficulty and we had to walk down in the dark. It's a nice walk but prepare for difficultly, weather and sunlight.

***❤️Yangmingshan National Park*** I was here June 1, 2014 a long time ago but a great place for excursions beautiful place

a place where people should know more about hidden trails and should be allow for people to discover , but not forbidden them to go. the transportation here is crowded with the bus. traffic car usually jam for people that wake up lately. This small mountain forest is a place of beauty and solace, a tranquil retreat where the natural world invites you to explore its enchanting, intimate secrets. It's a reminder that even in the shadow of a modest mountain, nature can weave a tapestry of wonder and tranquility. got restroom/toilet nearby.

Very beautiful but a little crowded. Hard to find somewhere to relax without tourists. Very tasty snacks to try though!!

Nov 2022 I want to mention that I only understand English, and I was taken here by my Chinese-speaking relatives. I do absolutely LOVE soup dumplings and this (international) chain is very famous for them. Note this place is very busy. We have visited 3 different locations at varying times of the day, and they always seem to have a long line of customers. The waiting time for dining in varied from 25-85 minutes (they have a digital sign by the entrance). Thankfully, takeout orders are faster. I do admit their soup dumplings are very good, but I do feel like it is a little expensive. Granted, they are a famous chain, and I understand that (1) soup dumplings are difficult to make, and (2) few people/stores are willing to make and sell them. I also admit my first experience with soup dumplings was years ago at a street market (which tend to have lower prices than stores). Still, I will be on the lookout for cheaper, still quality soup dumplings.

Amazing service and food. Taste and quality of food is not too different from the US locations. Line up to get ticket and walk around the mall while you wait your turn. They even have gift boxes of cakes and cookies to buy as souvenirs.

It was my first visit to the renowned Taiwanese restaurant. Despite a short wait to be seated, I had no complaints about the service. The staff exhibited friendliness and professionalism, contributing to the pleasant atmosphere. The restaurant’s decoration added to the overall ambiance. Moreover, the presentation and taste of the food exceeded my expectations. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Great restaurant with a good vibe and perfect service. Waitress have been right at our site, as we needed something. The dumplings have been very good! The beef soup was how and tasty. The taroballs have been sweet and yummy. The fried rice was good and even better with the hot sauce from the wonton. The wonton with the hot sauce have been lovely spicy, but not to hot! We've been lucky and got directly a table for the four of us. Usually you have to stand in a line and wait a while until you get a table. As dessert, we've had some taroballs which are really good and mouthwatering. This place is 100 percent recommendable and for sure we come back somewhen. Din Tai Fung 101 is a chain restaurant with sides around the world. Give it a try, you will be happy and your wallet will thank you, as it is not really expensive. Once again, all in all 100 percent recommendable and worth to visit!

Very nice lunch. Met all our expectations. Arrived for a weekday lunch, were given a place in the queue and a QR code with a link to the menu for ordering ahead. Order was simple and the food started to arrive shortly after we were seated. Soupe dumplings are of course the star of the show.

Excellent dinner meal, met all my family expectations. Arrived for a weekday dinner, were given a place in the queue and a QR code with a link to the menu for ordering ahead. Order was simple, speedy & the food started to arrive shortly after we were seated. Soup dumplings are of course the star of the show for this place. Highly recommended for family and shoppers that want to refill their stomach.

Food quality isn’t want it use to be, seems like they are just rinsing the hype now. The service was good and fast. We arrived at the restaurant at around 11 and got a table at about 12 (on a weekend) highly suggest to come earlier as the later people that came ended having to wait about 2 to 3 hours. The restaurant is loud as there are lots of children running around, that was a bit unpleasant.

This famous restaurant in Taiwan is certified as a halal-friendly restaurant. They go the extra mile by providing detailed information about menu ingredients. While they do offer delectable vegetarian dumplings, my personal favorite has to be their chocolate 小籠包~

Best dumplings (Xiaolongbao) I ever had! So juicy inside, yummy. Please note, you need to take a query ticket before you will be seated. Also when you pay, additional 10% service charge will be automatically added if you dine in.

Despite the long wait, the system was quite organised and service staff were efficient. Food came quickly and tea was topped up constantly. The food was really good too as the pork chop on the fried rice could melt in your mouth. Would recommend to try if you have time to spare (around 2 hrs to shop around Taipei 101 after taking the queue number). Environment was also very clean and staff offered a container to put your belongings!

As for the food, everything we ordered was fresh and delicious. The soup dumplings were amazing and you could see the chefs hand-making the dumplings in the kitchen from our table.

Excited to get to this Din Tai Fung as they had items not found in the US. Highly recommend coming early to get seated when they open. Came about 30 mins before they opened at 11am and was able to be seated right away. Wait time at 11 was about 35 minutes. Service was exceptional with tea refills coming frequently. The food came out fast, hot, and delicious.

It’s a global Taiwanese chain that is always consistent with great quality soup dumplings and other Taiwanese side dishes. Why not try it at the heart of 101! Similar to my experience in Hong Kong or Seattle, service is friendly and fast and food quality is great The only downside is wait during peak hours but you can always tour around 101 and mall aspects while you wait. You can’t really order wrong here. Menu does have pretty straightforward and accurate pictures. It is a little noisy inside but it’s not as bad as I thought it was going to be.

Very tasty dumplings! Also enjoyed their fried rice and noodles. The restaurant is large but very popular so expect to queue for a table. The process of queuing is very well organised. You collect a ticket, with different queues based on the number of people in your group. The ticket gives you an estimated wait time as well as a code to place your order online while you wait - saving you time when your table is available. The last order is at 8:30pm - you do not have to leave at this time, so would arrive by 19:45 latest if you want to have dinner there.

I came here with a friend as I wanted to check their vegan option. There was a long waiting line that can take up to 1 hour but we pass our time at the mall so we didn't really care. The restaurant is in traditional Chinese style, they have a clear vegan section on the menu that show all the options so it's very convenient. The service was lovely and the food was delicious. I took veggie dumplings and a bun filled with mushrooms and vegetables, both were good and went great with a bit of soy sauce and vinegar. One of my favorite dishes was the steamed spinach salad which was fresh and tasted great. Another dish I liked was a small pieces of tofu with soy beans soaked in a great sauce. For dessert, we took the rice cake filled with red beans that came warm and soft.

Truffle dumplings are worth every penny!! I loved all the dumplings & truffle took it to the next level!! Service was good! Expect a wait. You can order ahead as you wait!

Been there on a Thursday around 11:10 am and after getting a number I had to wait for half an hour. Ollie, a service bot, will guide you to your table. You'll scan a QR code you get to the online menu and order directly via your phone. A waiter will confirm the order and then the dishes will fly in. I went for the truffle dumplings, shrimp dumplings and pork dumplings at well as the hot and sour soup, shrimp dumpling soup and the fried pork with rice. The last one as well as the pork dumplings were great. But to be honest. I had some better dumplings (xiaolongbao) in random shops in Guangzhou. It's still a great experience with superior service.

It’s the best dim sum I have ever had. Fresh ingredients and full of flavor. This place is pretty busy and that’s why staff is trying to kick you off in a nice way, if you still chill sipping tea after meal lol. Very good overview. Will try another branches.

Din Tai Fung is a Taiwanese restaurant chain most famous for its xiaolongbao (steamed pork dumplings). Although the 101 branch officially opens at 11am, the wait for a table at 10:45am is approximately 1 hour! Customers can pre-order their food online while waiting in the mall area. Servers are accommodating. Food is delivered by a meal-bot, which is very efficient. However, the poor quality definitely is not worth waiting for. Signature dishes are not impressive at all! The skin of the various xiaolongbaos is very thick and a tad bit dry. Noodles are lukewarm. The smooth and flavourful House Special Spicy Vegetable and Ground Pork Wontons (NT 180) is the only recommendable dish.

Wonderful food. The service is excellent!! The service was amazing and the food delicious. We enjoyed everything we ordered. We waited a bit which was good for a Saturday but by the time we got to our table the wait had increased to 130 min. I especially like the robots!!

One of the most famous and authentic Taiwanese restaurants in town. It’s a chain restaurant so you can find lots of stores in Taiwan as well as all around the world. You can see the staff making fresh dishes directly from the dining area. My favorite dish here is 紅油炒手 and 排骨炒飯. The service here is kind and attentive. It’s definitely a must try in town!

Though we have to wait for almost two hours, the food is very nice. The restaurant is also influenced with highly-intelligent service bots to lead customers to their table. The food, especially the beef noodles, have made us satisfied. In conclusion, it was definitely worth the wait.

I was surprised how high hospitality skills they got and the quality of foods they have is! Every food was amazing And they are amazing, They will put your food on your table exactly perfect time when you want it! If you order some meals at the same time, they will give you beer and small meal first, and they will give you food, and sweets. I’m impressed. If I visit Taipei next time. I will definitely come back here!

Initially thought we have to queue for this but their serving is faster than fast food! You will see the crowd standing in front of the store but they are all standing and eating. Just go straight to the cashier and order and the noodle will be served within a minute! The noodle and gravy is really good and memorable for us as tourists, we have this in Malaysia but this is one of the must-eats in Taipei for us.

Totally worth the trip to eat this. The noodle are tender and soup is so tasty. You don't need the condiments but adding some vinegar, garlic, and/or chili really kicks up the flavor. Small is 60 and large is 75. Service is quick and efficient.

Very popular street food in Taiwan with a very long queue but wait time is very short as they were very quick to take orders and serve. You just have to choose between large (NT$75) or small size (NT$60). You can see how busy it is there with people either standing or sitting around the area eating the noodles. This flour-rice noodle was very fine and light almost effortless to chew. The base of the broth was made of bonito and was so thick. I wouldn’t say I was blown away by the flavour as it was basically a simple bonito stock as the soup base but I do like the texture. There were bits of salty cured pig intestine inside which were quite chewy. There was a self service topping station: vinegar, pureed garlic, and chili sauce. Overall, a hearty meal not the typical light street food snacks you get around. An experience that everyone should try at least once.

Visited here many years ago. One of the dishes that I miss the most. Went in the morning, about 9am and they opened, the queue wasn't too long so I didn't take too much time for the wait. In less than 5 minutes I can say. I'm surprised that the food is still great after so many years. Wasn't disappointed at all. There are some sauces beside that you can add on. Overall it is good

The best MianXian Flour Rice noodle that I’ve had in Taiwan, rich favor soup, pork intestine without bad smell. Add some vinegar and chili sauce for better taste. Small shop, only few chairs, no table, always busy with tons of people waiting

Very popular, crowded even at 4pm. Noodles are silky,.smoky and with food flavours and intestines don't taste like intestines -- quite chewy. Serving is conveyor belt optimal, finished with a good portion of cilantro. There are stools but they are limited so you can stand around and slurp these delicious-ness

One of the best I have eaten. Highly recommend to add the chili, garlic and vinegar to bring out the taste. Q may be long, but it moves fast. They come in 2 sizes. 75 for large and 60 for small. Do tell them if you are taking away, or eating there. If you wish to take away, they will give you a cover and a plastic bag. They will also add in the chili, garlic and vinegar for you b4 covering. I always ask for extra chili as I love the kick.

All in all, the place is really good. Really reasonable price for a food that is really good! Taste and quality is fantastic. Been here multiple times during my Taiwan trip because it's just really good. The staff were all very nice and friendly. They deserve a 5/5 rating and I highly recommend this place.

Recommend to try this in winter season because of it’s very hot. Taste good and special. This store is always crowded and have long queue but in the early morning there are lesser ppl buy so you can buy faster. Food in taiwan is cheap and tasty 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Pig intestine and noodle soup! Not a huge fan of the pig intestine but the noodle soup was delicious. The line could get long but it moves very fast. Just pay on the right side and they will give you a ticket to trade for your soup. They provide three different sauces: garlic, chili, and vinegar. Garlic makes it really good. Don't put too much chili like I did. It makes it too spicy.

It is one of the best rice noodle shop ever. I tried this last 4 years ago and I never forget the taste. Small size is 55ntd and larger size is 70ntd. They don’t have the table to dine in. I think it might contain the oyster. It is better if you should adjust the taste with vinegar and chilli taste. The taste is totally different without that sauces.

At first, the dish honestly did not look very appetizing to me but once I tasted it, I was very pleasantly surprised! To me, it’s more of a soup than noodle. Has that fishy umami taste from I believe dried bonito flakes and you can mix it up with sauces. Intestine is SUPER GOOD, so tender and savory. I wish they give the option to buy extra cause i cant have enough. Staff functions like clockwork so line moves quickly. Large portion seems more economical as it almost doubles in size but only slightly more expensive than the small.

I loved this so much I went to get a second serving, and then a second trip to Ximending night market just for this….. AMAZING. As a person that doesn’t even eat pig intestine, THIS IS SO GOOD. Recommended to add more vinegar 😋

The flour rice noodle here came out immediately and hot! They do have a sauce bar with chili, garlic, and vinegar available for self use. There are seats out front to quickly enjoy your bowl of hot soup, and recycling bins organized for waste. The noodles were soft and piping hot. The thick sauce/soup they came in were also delicious. Not many topping choices like some other places, but delicious nonetheless!

Great noodle soup with what I suppose was some innards? Beware if you don't like that stuff, although honestly try it anyway because you won't even notice it and it tastes great! Cheap and good food, I recommend the large portion, since the small one is.. really small.

Popular flour rice noodle in Taiwan. Tried once 18 years back, this is still the best Ay-Chung branch in town. Remember to mix in a little chili and vinegar, then 3-5 spoons of garlic sauce for a big bowl.

I eat it every time I come to Taipei. The noodles are soft, the soup is fragrant. Small bowl costs 60 TWD, large bowl costs 75 TWD. It's crowded but the queue moves fast. No seats available, so you have to stand and eat.

Popular street snack in Ximending, flavorful noodles with lots of meat and soup. There is no seating available and they only serve one dish which makes the line go along fast. There was no queue when i visited which made my experience more convenient.

Service is pretty fast so do not fear even when queue is long. Do note there is no osyter in the mee sua, only pig intestine. The intestine is very clean so though I do not really fancy it, i do not mind the ones here. Love the chilli that i get to mix myself into the noodles which brings the taste up a notch. Love the bonito flakes added as well.

Lines moved quickly despite being long and menu is really simple. This is my second time eating this and the first was better a few years back. It's much harder to eat with the soup constantly slipping out.

Its a top notch flour rice noodles and its so tasty though the queue is quite long however just a taste of it you will forget the queue you had😂😋

Very famous for flour-rice noodle; tastes fine, but there's no supporting service around, be it tissues or a flat surface, while the soup is very hot and sticky to hold

Love the dining concept here, I will always visit when I am back in Taipei. It is very different from the standard restaurants. This business consists of wet market, supermarket, sushi standing counter and restaurants. Seafood are fresh with nice dining ambience. One down side about this place is that they only accept cash. There is an atm machine at level 1 next to the cashier in case you didn’t bring enough.

Great place with different restaurants and a gourmet market and store. It’s also possible to take away. It gets really crowded on the weekends. The fish and seafood are fresh. The atmosphere is very nice, specially the outdoor sea during summer. The sushi bar is delicious but only standing, no seats. It’s not possible to book in advance at the sushi bar and at the bbq restaurant, so you have to get a number and wait.

We came here at the recommendation of some friends. I think the concept is interesting but in general a bit over hyped. It’s fun to see the live and fresh fish. The market is well stocked with kitchen essentials for Japanese food. The precooked food is over cooked most likely due to the heat lamps. We did eat at the stand up sushi counter but the cooked food again overcooked. Sushi and sashimi were well made.

An interesting fish market to check out if you are a tourist in Taipei! Food is a little expensive here so it seems more geared towards tourists. It's also hard to make a reservation. The service while eat was also so-so. The quality of food was the one good redeeming quality.

One of the freshest sushi restaurants in town if not the freshest. Not your typical franchise sushi bar. The standing sushi restaurant always packed, so better adjust your schedule. It has various type of fish and seafood to choose and it range from 70NT - 190NT per pieces. If you don’t know which fishes to choose, just buy the set menu. The sushi restaurant lies inside a modern market that sell fresh and different kind of seafood with a cheaper price tag. They also sell wine, sake, iberico pork, cheese, and whiskey. You can also buy live seafood there.

This place is amazing! The variety of foods is astonishing, in the way they are prepared, served, and presented. It's more than a restaurant, it's a bazaar for all sorts of seafood, raw, boiled, grilled, fried. You can buy your food like in a supermarket from the shelves or you can have it prepared on demand behind the cooking stations, or you could get a reservation for a table at the restaurant. The most difficult thing you'd find when you're in that place is what you want to eat because you want to eat everything. We chose to sit at the takeout counter tables outside, I would recommend the trays of uni from the market area. It's a good deal.

Great place to grab fresh seafood. Many items are imported from Japan. Prices are not super cheap but the quality rivals what I've had in Japan. Seating area is more like a standing area, nothing luxurious just eat and go.

Stand there and eat at the small little space you have, at fine dining luxury prices. I think it was about 5k for the food in the photos. Not sure if I would say it was worth it. Eat tons of Jap cuisine in Canada, not sure if this was necessarily any better.

Just amazing!! Many people don’t know how to order so they gave only one star. We came here often and we know what’s best. It’s not reasonable because Wagyu and seafood, but quality is good.

If you're looking for a Taiwanese spot, this isn't it. The food is ok, but prob some seafood spots could be better. You're here for an experience, the market like setting, standing and eating, it's fun. The food is above average but nothing to sing home about.

Great place to have seafood and sushi, very fresh but expensive. Need to prepare your money if you wanna come here. Recommend 緣側sushi, oily but very smooth and tasty!

Fresh seafood made to order. A bit on the pricier side but quality is 👌. We had enough sushi to feed a party of 4 for lunch. It ran around $20 per person. The main dining area is inside the building. It is standing dining. You have to take a number first at the front desk to get waitlisted for seating. There are also restaurants outside if you wish but the main attraction is inside the marketplace. And that wine selection…I’m coming back on bus next time so I can 🍷and 🍱!!!

There are high tables for you to eat standing near the exit so it's nice to enjoy good sashimi in a very casual atmosphere. We picked sashimi, sushi, scallope, salad and 2 canned drinks then went out to eat standing at those tables.

I’m sorry but this place has aged and need to improve the food quality, price or service. I use to love buying crabs and Uni here. Chef used to prepare fresh crab for us. Now it’s not cheap, not that fresh, just a Japanese super market ok to have a walk. The juice shop too, adding too much syrup.

3.5 Stars Cooked food is really really good. Big bowl of miso soup is awesome. However, I am here for the sushi and nigiri and they are quite... Normal, OK-ish? For a restaurant in a fish market, I was expecting it to be a lot better. It's not bad, but doesn't pass the "Sushiro Test" in which I ask myself after finishing the meal, "Would I want to eat Sushiro tomorrow?" It was 50/50 before I found out they charge 10% service fee, but after I paid the bill I definitely want to eat Sushiro now.

The seafood at this place is is quite good! I opted for the set menu, which included a starter, soup, crab legs, and sushi/sashimi. Definitely worth giving it a shot. Just be prepared for a potential wait, especially during busy hours.

One of the best places to get very good sushi in Taipei. It is also good too that they have waiters and staff who speak English, which makes ordering so much easier and convenient. The whole place itself is a treat enough for the senses as they have a meat, seafood, condiments, fresh produce and condiments section; and it is not that expensive too that we were quite surprised. My partner and I enjoyed going around their produce area after our lunch and just check on their displays. Highly recommended!

One of the food highlights of our trip. The sushi here was phenomenal. My favorite was the smoked halibut nigiri that the waitress recommended. It was so light and flavorful and unlike any sushi I've ever had. The oysters were some of the best I've ever had, probably better than kumamoto oysters. They're huge! Only slightly smaller than the palm of my hand. The sashimi was really high quality and everything was decently priced especially given how high the quality was.

Local friend brought me here for super fresh and tasty sashimi. Love the 比目鱼 and 大腹tuna sushi, they were melt-in-mouth texture! This is a standing eating place, no seats provided and only accept cash payment.

If you're a seafood sucker like me and want the most fresh off the water, definitely you need to go here. The range of seafood / sashimi variety is mouth watering. We had the smoothest bluefin tuna, sweet oysters, and super cheap buttery uni. I don't mind standing for eating since we enjoyed it so much.

It's like a playground for seafood lovers, from the live seafood market to the chillers where you can buy sushi and canned items (they had Icelandic cod liver, which is the foie gras of the sea IMHO), to the sushi restaurant where you can order set meals or a la carte. However, this is a standing restaurant. No seats, even when you're dining in at the bar. So it can be challenging if you're visiting with senior citizens, young children, or PWDs.

Sushi is meh, fish is fresh but they use cold rice(this is from the dine in restaurant that is in the fish market). The Tuna here isn't that good. The restaurant has no seats so you will have to stand at the counters to eat. The wait staffs are also quite rude. I recommend to just buy the takeaways as they are more value-for-money. There are tables outside the place where you can stand and eat. Honestly, I think that going to Don don donki is better. This place is also cash only which is kinda ridiculous because the food is not cheap.

The price of this bowl was 280$. I had the beef and tendon version. The place was packed at 11.30. Waiting time was about 5 min to get a 1 seat table. The broth is rich and flavourful. The meat and tendons are cooked perfectly. I cannot give 5 stars since the price of 280$ is literally more than double of another Beef Noodle place charged and it was the same if not tastier. Yes you get a lot of meat here but is it worth double the price....? The noodles were also a bit too soft for my likening. You should try this place if you're a Beef Noodle Soup lover and want a richer and spicier broth compared to other places.

This place is mad underrated. Both original and soy beef broth are packed with beefy richness. Noodle chewiness are adjustable according to personal preference, so is the savoriness of the whole beef noodle. Great amount of meat in each bowl, and great portion overall for the price. Strongly recommend this place if anyone’s looking for a legit bowl of savory rich beef noodle.

老牌子的食物，還是沒話講。this is a well establish beef noodle place. The food is exquisitely prepared and highly recommended. The beef chunks and beef tendons are meltingly delicious. They also have the fragrant rice imbued pork ribs and pork intestines that are extremely flavorful. The only downside is that this place has tourists in line out the door almost every day. However, for an unforgettable beef noodle experience this place is IT.🙂

There's a reason this place is so famous and popular despite some reviews! The beef noodle soup has a depth and thickness to it that can't be found elsewhere. We also liked the spicy wontons (红油抄手) and rice steamed spare ribs (粉蒸排骨). We came on a Saturday afternoon, and thankfully did not have to wait for seats. Don't skip the side dishes, which you have to order separately. Prices are reasonable, and service was ok. They are worthy of their Michelin Bib Gourmand status. I'd come back!

Already a long queue just before it opens for business on a weekday! Love the Steamed Spare Ribs with Rice Powder NT $150 so much. The rice is flavourful, sticky and very tasty. It is mixed with pork cubes that are so soft and tender. At the base is sweet potato mash with a little sweetness. Braised Beef Noodle Soup (Spicy) NT $280 for small portion is not bad, can be quite filling, and has large chunks of tender beef and thick chewy noodles.

The place is a bit crowded so peak hour should be long queue. We came around 3pm so we don’t have to wait. Tried only beef noodle, both the spicy soya bean sauce and the clear soup one are delicious.

Local Taiwanese favorite specializing in noodles and dumplings. You only need to see the line (queue) outside to tell how good the food is — try the beef noodles and anything else on the limited menu. The staff speak English and menus are also with photographs and English descriptions. Ideal for solo diners or small groups who like to share.

Best beef noodles in Taiwan. They live up to the hype. There was a 30 minute wait, but we’ll worth it. Great prices and very authentic. I highly recommend.

Taiwan is known for its obsession for beef noodle soup. Yong Kang Beef Noodles is one of the well-known restaurants for this bowl dish and has been around for over half a century in Taipei. It's located on a side street but is hard to miss with bright yellow signs and a queue line outside for hungry visitors. The braised beef noodle arrived in a slightly spicy rich red soy broth. Its thick slices of braised beef were tender with a savory herbal taste. The chewy thin fresh noodles and the hearty soup helped accentuate the tasty meat in the large bowl. I followed the crowd and ordered a side dish of steamed hog spareribs. As expected, the spareribs straight from the steamer were tasty and cooked till soft within a small mound of sticky rice. All in all it was a decent and comforting meal. However due to popularity with locals and tourists, there was a long line before packing into this traditional restaurant. The menu prices were twice the price of similar noodle shops around town given this demand. It's pretty old school and we were expected to share tables with other hungry guests. An authentic beef noodle experience as expected.

The original and authentic Taiwanese braised beef noodles. It is so famous that tourists really should not miss unless you are a vegetarian. I love not only the braised beef noodles, but also its appetizers. Must try!

Honestly didn’t get how this get Michelin Star. Taste very average and my housekeeper can even cook it. I didn’t finish the small bowl and only eat half of it. Service is good though, staff are polite and they want to explain to foreigners. Came around 12 and queue was around 30 mins. Space very limited. Food come out fast.

There was a bit of drizzle that time and the queuing was long, but it’s worth it. It was my first time to finished an order of Beef Noodle Soup. The texture of the noodles was good while the beef melts in your mouth. Amazingly, it was not oily and there was no after taste. I ordered the white or regular but for those who loves spicy, you may order red. A must try! Your trip in Taiwan will not be complete without trying this restaurant. As for the price, I was not able to check as we were part of a group tour and our operator/guide arranged it for us.

There was a short queue, but we managed to get in after about 15 minutes, sharing a table with another couple. The male boss was very friendly when collecting the money at the end, but we noticed that some customers had difficulty in getting the female staffs' attention, perhaps as the shop was busy. We ordered the braised beef noodles, and the clear soup beef noodles. Both were just okay, to be honest. We had tasted better at other places in Taipei. Portions were generous though, and we did not finish our bowls. The clear soup version was our preferred choice, and you can ask for tendon with your beef as well.

Opens at 11am but people were already lining up. We had to share a table to accommodate more customers. No need to ask where it is cause once you see a long line, you know that’s the one. Menu is pretty straightforward, lots of side dishes which is also good for vegetarian. I ordered their beef noodles with soybean sauce and believe me when I say it’s the best I’ve had so far. The beef is suppppeeerrrrr tender - literally breaks down into pieces, almost no chewing needed, noodles are not soggy and the broth is just the right amount of savory, salty and spicy. I was not talking the whole time I was eating it.

Beefy, salty, and mildly spicy broth. If you come from Southeast Asia you will like this as the taste is stronger as opposed to the more common clear broth type around Taipei. Soup type is hong shao (red braised). The only complaint that I have is that the noodles were way too soft. The steamed pork ribs powder rice was a pleasant surprise, rice mixture was placed on top of sweet potato slices. We waited approximately 30mins before we went in, serve time was very fast, and price was very reasonable. Place was on Michelin guide 2020.

Decent beef noodle soup. To me, the highlight is the steam ribs with sweet potatoes. They put sticky rice on the outside. The combination of the savory rib with the sweet potatoes makes it a delicious dish. Be sure to come right when it opens if not before, this is a popular spot due to its Michelin recognition and gets busy fast.

I’ve heard many great things and recommendations about this place so we decided to head over for one of our last dinners in Taiwan. During this trip, I’ve had 3-4 beef noodle soups and this is easily the worst or second worst. Pros: Food came out so fast Beef was extremely tender and falls apart easily Noodles were cooked well Cons: Beef broth was SOO salty Noodles were salty too??? Sauerkraut(?) was also ridiculously salty???? Luckily we did not wait too long - maybe 10-15mins. I’ve seen long long lines here… if I had to wait anymore, I would have regretted eating here even more.

Noodles are a must in Asia and this little restaurant will take your paladar to the next level with its half a century history of feeding its people. The beef noodles are just superb, slowly cooked overnight, it will melt in your mouth making your salivary glands to get on strike for overworking. The noodles are tender in its right point, and you can notice the soup recipe must come from the ancestors, because even if you are not local, it will make you feel like when you had dinner at your grandma's when you were a child. They have side dishes, the tofu salad is awesome. Be assured there will be a line to eat there, but it shrinks fairly quick, as this is a place mainly frequented by locals that don't hesitate to share a table with a stranger. This is in fact one of the wonders of eating in Asia.

Disappointed... We ordered a beef noodle, one dandan noodle which has no meat and a fried pork chop. It wasn't as good as we expected. Taste was bland, seatings were tight. Price doesn't correspond with the taste. They missed out one item we ordered. Although they apologized, I was quite relieved since it wasn't tasty.

A great night market to visit with friends and family. The locations is very strategic, right beside the MRT situation with a huge temple in front. So many good food, although some are more expensive compared to other night market. Near rainbow bridge, which has a cozy atmosphere to hangout with your friends and/or dates.

Always a must when going to Taipei. Great selection of food, easy to walk, usually not that crazy busy and the most important part: the pork pepper buns at the entrance! Those buns alone are worth going there! Also the rest is very good!

I recently had the opportunity to visit a night market in Taiwan for the first time, and I must say, it was an unforgettable experience. The variety of food available was simply amazing, and as a first-timer, I felt compelled to try everything, even the food that may not appeal to a foreigner. But even with my adventurous spirit, I was still blown away by the mushroom stands at the night market. The mushroom dishes were some of the best I've ever tasted, and I would highly recommend them to anyone visiting the market. Overall, I would highly recommend this night market to anyone visiting Taiwan. It's an experience that simply cannot be missed, and I guarantee that you'll be blown away by the quality and variety of food available. Whether you're a seasoned traveler or a first-timer like me, this night market is sure to leave a lasting impression.

グルメたくさんあります！！ 本間にうまいので食べるのが好きな方はここは是非おすすめ！ グルメの本には一部しか書いてませんが、食べ物の種類もかなりあり大満足！ ここの夜市で間違いないです！😝😝 (Translated by Google) There are a lot of gourmet! ! Honma is delicious, so if you like to eat, I highly recommend this place! Although only part of it is written in the gourmet book, there are quite a few types of food and I am very satisfied! You can't go wrong with the night market here! 😝😝

a nice market to walk to as the street completely closed so you don't need to worry for vehicles to pass just a few inches from you. in the market I found a few vegan option include grilled mushroom that were delicious, the guy making them give a full show as he dance while he chop and seasoned them. I've tried stinky tofu, although the smell is hideous the taste was actually alright, it came on a plate with a cabbage salad on the side I also came across a fruit stand where I've got a mango cup that was a bit soft but taste alright.

Step into Taipei's vibrant night market, where the tantalizing scent of street food dances in the air, complemented by the serenity of a nearby temple.

So, go ahead, explore, and savor the delightful mysteries this night market has to offer. Your taste buds are in for an unforgettable treat! 😉

Better market than shilin! Food stalls are competitive and overall of good quality. Huge variety of things to try, get the pepper buns, chicken sausage, sweet potato balls. Lots of interesting shops, and a nice linear layout so that you won't get lost.

We visited this night market around 6-8 PM. It was very good experience. There are many interesting local street foods with reasonable prices. I think it is not soo crowed during weekdays. And I really recommend you to visit this place whenever you have a chance in Taipei. Cheers :)

Wonderful place with amazing flame grilled beef cubes. The whole atmosphere was exciting and there were many different types of foods. There was also a beautiful temple at the entrance and stall owners were so friendly, offering to help throw your trash if you purchase from them. Had the best Taiwanese 山猪 sausages and crackled pork belly there! Milk tea was so good too!

I can tell you it's a recommended night-market! This is a great place to start if you enjoy grabbing a quick snack. We can bring this food to the riverside after purchasing it (right behind the night-market) It's an incredible mix!

This is a must visit night market in Taipei. Come here and be wow-ed with how awesome night market in Taipei can be. The variety of food here is huge and the street is easy to walk, basically just 2 direction, from front-to-back and back-to-front. Pictures should speak for the market (stalls are randomly chosen and taken). The only downside is that prices have gone up over the years, so pick your favourites wisely with limited appetite and money set aside to be spent on night market 😬

The best first-visit night market in Taipei. Rows of delicious food stalls with a variety of shops along the side. Can get crowded during peak time (around 7-8pm) so get there close to opening to beat the lines at the most popular stalls. Also try to visit on weekdays for even less crowds. Most sellers can speak/understand enough English to order with no trouble.

Sundays get pretty busy so come on a weekday. Be prepared for sensory overload. There are a couple michelin stalls here, but expect a line. I particularly liked the crispy donuts, and the ice cream with shaved peanuts rolled into a wrap. Fruit juices are everywhere, but if you prefer sodas, buy some at the 7-11 prior to entering the market. Worth the visit (once), when you are in Taiwan.

Who love food!Don’t miss this night market. You will find everything you want to eat. Food was very nice from local people make. Taste was great and reasonable price. Recommend if come with many friend that you can buy each food and share will more fun.

Step into this lively night market, a real gem where the atmosphere is buzzing with energy and endless possibilities. The food is not just delicious; it's a feast for the senses, and the best part? It won't burn a hole in your pocket. Picture this: you can hop from one stand to another, trying multiple different mouthwatering snacks, all freshly made right in front of you on the streets. But, fair warning, finding a cozy spot to sit isn't easy. Most folks, like me, end up happily munching on these delights while weaving through the lively crowds, making every bite an adventure in itself.

Love the variety of food! Also, people are so nice to us. Feeling really comfortable even late at night. No specific food to recommend - everything is good. One thing to note - the steamed dumplings are generally not that good.

It's an amazing for trying multiple Taiwanese local food. It start around 5 and get crowded by 6. It's a straight market area just for food and fun.

A wonderful night market with lotsa food options. The pepper bun is famous and you can see the long queue for it. The polo bun is incredible: everything a polo bun should be--crispy and flaky on the outside and fluffy on the inside. Also tried the famous herbal soup pork/lamb--warm and hearty on a winter night

One of the popular Night Markets in Taipei. There are a lot of stores selling all kinds of stuffs like clothing, footwear, hats, hardware, souvenirs... There is also a wide variety of food available, Seafood, grilled meats, fried potato balls... Beverages and desserts like bubble teas, fruit juices, slurpies, flavored shave ice... You may also view the Rainbow bridge from the river banks. A must place to see and experience on any trip to Taipei.

This night food market was an amazing experience! There were so many different food options to choose from, and everything looked and smelled delicious. I tried the fried chicken and it was some of the tastiest I've ever had. Despite being so delicious, the food was very affordable and I was able to sample a variety of dishes without breaking the bank. I highly recommend checking out this food market if you're looking for a fun and delicious experience!

The perfect night market for foodies! Compared to the other night matkets of Taipei, this night market has the most food choices! Highly recommended if you are in to street food and want to try Taiwan's best local foods. 5/5 will definitely go back. Food prices are very reasonable and the locals are super friendly.

This was one of my favorite night markets. A lot of variety of different snacks. Prices are very cheap and many items are very shareable. If you have a group, i would recommend getting many items and then share. Popcorn chicken is a must. Here are some of the items we tried: fried shrimp with mayo and sprinkles, fried squid, Taiwanese sausage, monga fried chicken (huge piece), apple flavor blueberry ice cream, stinky tofu fries (really good), seafood cooked with beer, and multiple versions of the tofu pudding.

Amazing night market. Not too big and overwhelming. Choices of food are great and though you do see repeated food stores selling same type of food but still consider a good spread Like the vibrant and energetic vibes. Takes about 1-2 hours to walk through and order We were still quite filled in our tummy so we only managed to try 4 dishes. Still a good way to end the day or have dinner here. There are also game store for the kids or even adults to have fun.

i don’t know how they do it, but this place manages to be full of tourists and travellers alike, all without making the place feel touristy at all! come for the food, stay for the vibes ✨ this night market is so good i came back again before i left Taipei! so many options that’s not just limited to Taiwanese delicacies, but some that even reaches Japanese, Korean, Malaysian, Thai, etc! best to come with a friend or more because you’re gonna wanna share portions if you want to try more stuff — the portions are serious business! highly recommended 🧡

Nice place to experience the night market. The street is well organized. There are store on both side, and food stand in the middle. Public transportation is easy by train. There are many special food in the night market also some interesting games. The price of this might market is reasonable and nice. Also lots of the stand have multiple language sign which is great for international traveler

Better visit at 6 pm or weekdays, less crowded. Must try street food especially Stinky tofu, there's halal or vegan choices 👍 Visiting at late December 2023. Weather 12-15°C but the wind was strong so i recommend using sweater or jacket. Also Wear Cap or hat if you don't want the wind to mess up your hair

One of the largest night markets you will find in all of Taiwan. The streets are incredibly packed on the weekend and there is little space to wander, instead people walk in a continuous line until they find a stall they want then they get out of line to buy it. Lots of options for food and games, though none too terribly unique compared to other large night markets in the area.

So many people!!! The temple near the market is one of the good places to feel about Taipei. In front of the market, there is a long queue to buy a beef dumpling - it was good. The taste is a bit strong but worth to try. A person like me who likes healthy and organic food, the night market is not a good place but enjoyable. What I like the most was the donut shop! It was really tasty!!

Really good night market with a variety of food, snacks, gifts, and claw machines games to try. My number 1 food item which we came across and went back to is the pineapple bun that was freshly baked there with some butter. 😋 We also tried our luck at the claw machines and won some treats for ourselves. The sticky tofu was quite good and strong 👍 The stewed tripe, brisket, and intestines was quite delicious. You pick how much you want and they will weigh it then cut them into pieces for you. We didn't like the picked veggies so we asked them not to put it on the next day we went.

My favorite night market in Taipei, better than Ximending. More choices of various food stalls with better quality and tastier : pork bun, black pork sausage, sugar cane and watermelon juice.

One of my favourite night market that I will always visit whenever I am in Taipei. It been 5 years since I last visit and glad that all my favourite food is still around. Walk around and try so many foods that fill up my fat tummy. They should place more rubbish bin for us to throw around Raohe, which I find a bit lacking.

During my visit to Raohe Night Market, it happened to be raining. Despite the weather, we decided to try the Black Pepper Bun. It was legendary – a crispy bread filled with juicy pork patty. Although it was well-prepared, personally, I’m not particularly fond of black pepper flavor. Fortunately, the rain seemed to deter some crowds, making the queue more manageable.
