Perfect Timing

When to visit for the best experience

The best times to visit Taipei are from October to December and March to April, when the weather is mild and pleasant for outdoor exploration. Avoid the summer months of June to August, which bring intense heat and frequent typhoons, as well as the Chinese New Year period when crowds surge and some attractions may have limited hours.

Photography Guide

Capture the perfect shots

• Visit Taipei 101's observatory during golden hour for stunning cityscape photos that capture both the daylight skyline and the twinkling night lights

• Capture the vibrant colors and energy of Raohe Night Market with a wide-angle lens to showcase the bustling stalls and food displays

• For the iconic Shifen lantern moment, use a slow shutter speed to create beautiful light trails as lanterns rise into the night sky

Cultural Etiquette

Respect local customs and traditions

Taiwanese culture places great importance on respect and politeness — always greet shopkeepers and service staff with a smile and a simple 'ni hao' (hello) in Mandarin. When visiting temples, dress modestly, speak quietly, and remove your shoes if required. Tipping is not customary in Taiwan, and service charges are typically included in restaurant bills.

Special Events & Experiences

Enhanced experiences and seasonal highlights

• Taipei Lantern Festival — held annually during the Lunar New Year period, transforming the city with stunning lantern displays and cultural performances

Important Guidelines & Safety

Essential safety information and guidelines

• Taipei is one of the safest cities in Asia, but always keep your belongings secure in crowded areas like night markets and MRT stations

• Keep your FunPASS card in a safe place at all times since it holds monetary value and serves as your transit and attraction pass

• Stay hydrated and carry an umbrella — Taipei's weather can change quickly, especially during the rainy season from May to September
