[2025 Taipei ] Travel Guide for National Theater Hall (Updated Jun)

The National Theatre and the National Concert Hall are collectively known as the Two Halls and Theatres There are many operas and performances here. There are also many places of interest nearby that you can visit. Take the MRT to Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall Station, Exit 5. There are many famous historical sites near the National Theatre. The Chinese-style architecture is very distinctive and presents a grand and solemn atmosphere. Even if you don't want to listen to the performance, I still recommend you to visit and take photos. There is also a landscape bookstore on the first floor of the National Theatre. In addition to selling books, the bookstore also has a cafe. There are many seats in the store. You can order a cup of coffee and sit down to read a book. In addition, there are two restaurants in the National Theatre where you can dine. They are "The National Theatre" and "The Stage Tavern" The food in both restaurants is delicious, but I recommend the Stage Tavern. The stage bar has live jazz performances which is quite unique!! I highly recommend that you come to the National Theatre to watch performances and experience the beauty of music and drama! Address: No. 21-1, Zhongshan South Road, Zhongzheng District, Taipei City #Taipei Attractions #Taipei Food

I accidentally discovered this shop after passing the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. The name of the shop is very special, "Think of the National Theater". It provides pizza, pasta, stewed rice, steak dishes, etc. Everything is delicious. No wonder the business is very good!

We accidentally discovered that there is such a restaurant in the National Theatre. Luckily, we didn't make a reservation and had the last table available. The soup was thick, the main course was delicious, the drinks were beautiful, and the whole restaurant was filled with a strong artistic atmosphere.

#taipeiattractions During my Taipei trip, I didn’t expect to spend so much time at the National Concert Hall—but the view was too beautiful to leave. The bridge over the pond gave me the perfect angle to capture the Hall’s grand design and its reflection in the water. Everything felt like a postcard come to life! The garden nearby was filled with surprises—gentle streams, blooming plants, and even signs explaining the aquatic ecosystem. It’s a quiet, scenic place perfect for wandering, taking photos, or just sitting down to admire the cultural charm of Taipei.

The dipping sauces are also very thoughtful and go well with them! I'd like to meet up with friends at #The cafe by if I have the chance! The fried food platter is really great~ crispy and delicious! Fresh shrimps go perfectly with bread!

I came to the National Theatre again and still felt that it was so beautiful and elegant from the outside to the inside. This time I watched the Ming Hua Yuan Theatre Troupe's "Sanxi Opera" here. It felt really different from the feeling I saw at Taipei City Stage a few years ago. It felt more refined and more beautiful overall. I really like this play. I also like the feeling of coming to the National Theatre to watch a play🥰

Such a magnificent hall, located in the National Theater in Taipei❤️ #Taipei
