Asia's Best Kept Secret! 4 Days in TAIPEI, TAIWAN Travel Vlog & Guide

Taipei has jumped to the top of our list for best city experiences in Asia. In this travel vlog, we share our full itinerary of what we got up to - Shilin and Raohe Food Night Market, discovering the Taipei Grand Trial, Beitou hot spring town, visiting the old Taipei around Dadaocheng and Dihua Street, Ximending and Zhongshan for shopping and nightlife, the Chih Nan Temple and of course, the iconic Taipei 101 building as we visit the 89th floor observation deck. We were invited by the Taipei Tourism Board and shown around all these areas by locals and tour guides. We finish with some travel guide tips for using public transport, the hotels we stayed at along with safety. 👉👉👉 *Free downloadable PDF with all locations shared in this video* https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vnW5fwT1FFCCrsKBYs5gomaWiqa6T_1J/view *HOTELS WE STAYED AT (and alternatives)* 👇 👉* Zhongshan Hotel where we stayed, rated as “superb” on Booking - https://www.booking.com/hotel/tw/fan-qie-xing-lu-hostel-tomato.en.html?aid=1864334&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2&label=Taipei 👉* Ximending Hotel where we stayed, rated as “fabulous” on Booking - https://www.booking.com/hotel/tw/cho-hotel.en.html?aid=1864334&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2&label=Taipei 👉 Taipei 101 view Hotel where we stayed - https://www.amba-hotels.com/en/songshan/ 👉* Super fancy Beitou Hot Spring Hotel, rated as “superb” on Booking, rooms with private hot spring but pricey! - https://www.booking.com/hotel/tw/grand-view-resort-beitou.en.html?aid=1864334&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2&label=Taipei 👉* More affordable Beitou Hot Spring hotel - https://www.booking.com/hotel/tw/feng-huang-ge-wen-quan-hui-guan.en.html?aid=1864334&no_rooms=1&group_adults=2&label=Taipei 👉* Taipei 101 ticket pre book time slot: https://www.getyourguide.com/taipei-city-l190/taipei-awe-inspiring-views-from-taipei-101-observatory-deck-t242142/?partner_id=WMA142S&utm_medium=online_publisher&cmp=Taipei 👉* EasyCard Transport Card: https://affiliate.klook.com/redirect?aid=45118&aff_adid=766817&k_site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.klook.com%2Factivity%2F5777-public-transport-easycard-taipei%2F%3Fspm%3DSearchResult.SearchResult_LIST%26clickId%3Da33fc46550 👉* Reusable discount for E Sim data plans from Airalo (anywhere in the world): https://airalo.pxf.io/c/2373656/1268485/15608 Use code SUITCASE15 & get 15% off (new customers) Use code SUITCASE10 & get 10% off (existing customers) 👉 For all locations shared in this video in one place - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vnW5fwT1FFCCrsKBYs5gomaWiqa6T_1J/view Visited in early October Shot on iPhone 15 Pro Max All my licensed music comes from Artlist: Get 2 Months Free here: 👉* https://bit.ly/2rvWCEy To join us for more travel around the globe, follow us here: 👉 https://www.youtube.com/suitcasemonkey?sub_confirmation=1 Follow Suitcase Monkey on Instagram: 👉 https://www.instagram.com/suitcasemonkey/ Follow Suitcase Monkey on Facebook: 👉 https://www.facebook.com/SuitcaseMonkeyTravel/ Follow Suitcase Monkey on Twitter: 👉 https://twitter.com/SuitcaseMonkey 00:00 Taipei Best 1:18 Oldest parts of Taipei 2:20 Oldest Street in Taipei 3:35 Impressive Liberty Square 4:28 Ximending Buzzing area 5:56 Zhongshan Trendy district 7:16 Taipei Grand Nature Trail 8:10 Nature Temple - Chih Nan 9:24 Food costs 10:15 Beitou Hot Spring 11:30 Best Taipei Night Markets 13:19 Taipei 101 Skyscraper 16:21 Best Taipei Hotels we stayed 18:12 Taipei Public Transport 19:09 Is Taipei safe? 19:44 Getting there * Denotes affiliate link that supports this channel at no extra cost to you. #taipei #taiwan #taipeitravel
