Taiwan Day - 3 | A Day of Exploring Taipei's Must-Visit Spots

Today is my last day in Taipei! It felt like I was blessed with divine assistance, as I managed to visit all the important spots without missing a single one. Perhaps because I was traveling alone and didn't spend much time taking photos, my efficiency was super high. 🗺️Itinerary Starting from the Rainbow Taipei photo spot at Exit 6 of Ximending, I then went to Longshan Temple, followed by a visit to Xiao Wang Stewed Melon, which is very close to Longshan Temple. Next, I headed to Dihua Street, had lunch at Take Village Izakaya, went to Elephant Mountain in the afternoon, visited Taipei 101 in the evening, and ended my day at the Feminist Bookstore. ⚠️Notes Longshan Temple has a prayer guide, so don't worry if you haven't done your homework beforehand. Besides Take Village Izakaya and Elephant Mountain being great spots for photos with Taipei 101, the Taipei City Government location is actually better! (But I was lazy, and I already had a lot of content to post today, so I didn't go in the evening). The view from the top of Taipei 101 is similar to Hong Kong's Sky 100, so I didn't spend money on the observation deck. The Feminist Bookstore is a bookstore focused on feminism, so those interested can check it out. 💬Travel Thoughts I walked the entire way from Ximending to Dihua Street. Since I spent most of yesterday on transportation and didn't get a chance to walk around and explore, I missed out on many great little eateries. So today, I forced myself to take less public transport🚌. Strolling through the streets in the morning and hiking up Elephant Mountain in the afternoon in 30-degree heat, I can't remember the last time I pushed myself so hard, sweating profusely. 🍽️Food Experience The advantage of walking is that you can easily find small shops you want to eat and drink at. I tried Hong Rui Zhen sandwiches, Louisa Matcha Latte, 50 Lan Four Seasons Spring Tea, Xiao Wang Stewed Melon Pork Rice, and Fishbone Egg Cake. I basically ate everything I wanted in Taipei, and I couldn't fit any more food in my stomach. I hope to find even more delicious food at my next stop🙏.
