About this trip

Planning a one-of-a-kind Taipei vacation? Start by painting a paper lantern on Shifen Old Street. Have a strangely themed meal at Modern Toilet Restaurant followed by Chia Te Bakery pineapple cake. See carved dragons at Songshan Ci Hui Temple, real live felines at Houtong Cat Village and abandoned spaceship-shaped homes at UFO Village. Then top off your Taipei itinerary with a walk to Shifen Waterfall.
