Taipei is very easy to get around. They have excellent subway system.
Museum loveres may allocate two dyas for the Palace Museum visit. It is enourmous, and there is so much to see.

Some tours were available via reception to night markets and around the city generally. There were also tours available to rural areas which made a nice contrast to the city.
Taipei is an interesting city and although not a major tourist oriented city it has much to offer if only one looks.

I must admit that I had planned, through Cathay Pacific Airlines and the All-Asia Pass, to visit a number of cities in Asia. I was first trying to go to Seoul, Korea but they weren't able to get me in or out of the city. So Taipei was really a 3rd to 4th choice, plus I wasn't really looking forward to visiting Taipei or the country.
As it turned out, I was able to peform a service for one of my students in need. I must admit that the ride from the Taipei Airport definitely did not show off the city or the country of Taiwan. They really should clean up the area around the airport!!!!
I arrived at the end of a typhoon so the rain, wind, and weather was pretty intense. Luckily by the next morning the sun was out and the city was hopping. I was really impressed with Taipei and for some of the sights it had to offer. I particularly enjoyed the following:
1- Taipei National Museum, Great Collection! Plus the area around it had the National Garden and across the street is an Indigenous People Museum.
2- The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial area with the National Theater and Concert Hall was one of the most impressive areas I have ever seen. I have done quite a bit of traveling and I have lots of other experiences and areas to compare it to.
3- Shopping Area by Taipei Main Railroad Station was wild and it was filled with shops and people having fun.
All in all, I have a really nice time in Taiwan and I would recommend the city and country to associates and friends.

Taipei is always a very chaotic city to me. However, it is full of life and vibrancy. It is a city worth visiting, but not for living.
