Chasing Taipei 101 - Alternative Viewpoints 🌇📸

Taipei is a vibrant city and one I’ve visited many times. No visit to Taipei is complete without heading up Xiangshan mountain to get a snap of Taipei 101. On my most recent trip to Taipei, I wanted to seek out some alternative Taipei 101 viewpoints. Be sure to hit them up on your next visit to the island: 1️⃣ Xingshan Park Take the metro to Songshan at the end of the green line and walk about five minutes to the beautiful riverside park. If you go in the evening time you’ll be able to pick up a bite to eat at Roahe Street Food Market. 2️⃣ Lane 112, Anhe Road Take the red line to Xinyi Anhe and walk about ten minutes. The road is long and narrow and you have can get beautiful shots of Taipei 101 surrounded by local life. 3️⃣ Yuan Shan Scenic Area Get off at Jiantan station on the red line and follow the signs to this spectacular viewpoint. It’s really cool up here as you can see airplanes take off and land at Songshan Airport against the backdrop of the city. 4️⃣ Holin Coffee, Xinyi District This one is a bit of a walk from Taipei 101 station on the red line but it’s so worth it! There are few tourists in this area and it’s a great spot to people watch! 5️⃣ Huian Park This can be paired with the Holin Coffee stop as they are only five minutes apart. Another lesser known viewpoint, Taipei 101 towers over the downtown residential buildings. 6️⃣ Xiangshan Mountain The most famous Taipei 101 viewpoint in Taipei. It gets very crowded here and this is no surprise. I reccomend visiting close to sunset to enjoy the view during daylight and night hours. 🏨 Tired after exploring the city? Book a room at Hotel Puri Taipei Station. It’s a good base for getting around due to its proximity to Taipei Main Station. #china #taipei #travel #explore #trip #tripmoments #inspiration
