Taipei: Half-Day City Tour with Palace Museum Entry｜Taiwan

See the best of Taipei on a half-day guided city tour designed for first-time visitors. Travel by air-conditioned vehicle and enjoy an easy, curated route that covers the capital’s most iconic cultural and historical landmarks.

Start at the National Palace Museum, home to one of the world’s most important collections of Chinese imperial art. Browse treasures spanning the Song, Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties, and see famous highlights like the Jadeite Cabbage and Meat-Shaped Stone—two of the museum’s most talked-about masterpieces.

Continue to the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, an architectural landmark set within a grand plaza. Step inside to view exhibitions of historic documents, photographs, and films, then experience the atmosphere as you watch the changing of the guards.

End at Longshan Temple, a beloved local place of worship where you can learn about Taiwanese religious traditions. Dedicated to Guanyin (Goddess of Mercy), the temple is also known for deities such as Yue Lao (Matchmaker God). You’ll have time to observe rituals and, if you wish, try traditional divination blocks.

After the visit, return to your selected drop-off point: Ximending Shopping District or MRT Zhongxiao Xinsheng Station.
