Explore Taipei's nightlife on this fascinating evening tour. You will visit traditional markets, admire the city sights and famous landmarks from the 89th-floor observatory of Taipei 101, and enjoy dinner at Ding Tai Fung.
A 40-minute panoramic drive from the port of Keelung brings you to the Nan Men Market. Walking through the market, you will hear vendors greeting shoppers warmly while passionately extolling the virtues of their wares -- a sweet glimpse of local culture.
Visit Taipei 101 -- one of the world's tallest buildings. It is the pride of Taipei's skyline and is a testament to the country's engineering and technological capabilities. It was opened in 2003 and boasts an upscale shopping mall. The tower's design specifications are based on the number 8 -- a lucky number in Chinese culture -- and were approved by a feng shui master. From the observatory on the 89th floor, a panoramic view of Taipei unfolds before you.
Din Tai Fung Restaurant is the most popular dim-sum restaurant in Taipei. Don't miss sampling the Xiaolongbao -- its most famous dim sum snack, made with minced pork wrapped in a delicate dough skin with a minimum of 18 exquisite folds.
Enjoy free time at the night market for full immersion into the local lifestyle.
Notes:
Wear comfortable walking shoes. In the unlikely event that the Nan Men market is closed, a visit to Di-Hua Street will be substituted.
