Journey Highlights

What You'll See

A museum, a buffet, a Cold-War tunnel, and a temple — one golden day.

01

Imperial Masterpieces
at the National
Palace Museum

Explore one of the world's greatest collections of Chinese art. With nearly 700,000 artifacts spanning 5,000 years, you'll stand face-to-face with the "Big Three" treasures: the Jadeite Cabbage, the Meat-Shaped Stone, and the Mao Gong Ding.

02

Ceremonial Splendor
& Hidden History

At the National Revolutionary Martyrs' Shrine, admire architecture inspired by the Forbidden City and witness the world-famous Changing of the Guard ceremony — a display of silent discipline and national pride.

Next, we visit the Grand Hotel Taipei. Behind its vermilion pillars lies a Cold War secret: a secret underground tunnel system built in the 1970s as an emergency escape for heads of state. We'll take you deep into the West Tunnel for an exclusive guided exploration.

03

The Soul of Old Taipei

Longshan Temple

We conclude at Longshan Temple, the spiritual anchor of Taipei's oldest district. Built in 1738, this temple has survived wars and natural disasters. Watch as locals perform daily rituals, offering incense and seeking guidance from the gods in an atmosphere thick with history and devotion.
