Longshan Temple
Longshan Temple is located in the heart of west end Taipei, and serves as the religious center of local community. The temple was first established in the 18th century by Chinese immigrants coming to Taipei, who later built Monga District as their settlement for trade and business. In the following years, Longshan Temple went through a series of earthquakes, typhoons, as well as wartime air raids, but has always remained resilient thanks to renovations, enthusiastic believers and the gods’ blessing. Today, Longshan Temple is one of the most iconic buildings of historic Taipei and a popular destination for sightseeing among foreign visitors and worshipers.
Bopiliao Historic Block
Bopiliao, literally meaning “skin-peeling” was once the commercial center of northern Taipei where Chinese immigrants conducted trade with the indegineous community. During its most glorious years, you would find its street filled with hostels, shops and public bath houses to accomodate the traders and local residents. Here you will also find the best-preserved architecture from Qing dynasty China in Taipei, some of its features have even been incorporated into modern Taiwanese style!

The historic walking tour was a very good experience especially for those coming to Taiwan for the first time. Luke and Mabel had a good grasp of the history of the places we visited and entertained all of our questions. The tour was also designed very well as it went through in chronological order key points in Taiwanese history. What I didn't like: It was hard to follow the stories at certain points where the voices did not carry well depending on the venue. Mabel carried a mic but it still wasn't consistently audible. The tour isn't designed well for kids (ours were pre-teen) because it didn't provide places to sit even at the rest spots so that's a watchout for those considering to bring kids along. Other than that they liked hearing the stories so I would still recommend it -- maybe just give the kids a heads up so they're prepared.

We loved our walking tour with Eric and Mabel! This tour was a great way to see historic and important parts of Taipei and get the inside scoop from locals. They were excellent tour guides who gave us lots of context on the culture, architecture, food, religion, and history of the city. We were only in Taipei for a brief time but we learned a lot thanks to this tour!

I enjoyed this tour so much!! This was the third time I was in Taipei but I've never visited the places we went to during this walking tour. So if you're looking for an off-the-beaten-path places in Taipei, this tour will give you a good introduction. The tour guide, Luke, was informative with many stories to share and Di Hua street is really charming :)

Luke & Andy were the best guides I could ask for. I really enjoyed learning about Taiwan's history with them. Their jokes made the 3-hour walking tour less tiring, and the ice cream pitstop was the best!

We covered three different themes during the walk: temples, commercial business, government buildings. Each done at a good pace where we could take in all the interesting information and stories provided by the very well informed guide.

Jessica and Will did an outstanding job covering Taiwan history, culture, and architecture. I wanted to understand Taiwan from a local perspective and this tour provided me with a lot of context. Will stayed for an additional 4 hours to give a tour of the Chaing Kai Shek Museum and we also explored another area which was influenced by the Japanese. I find that a lot of locals have so much pride and it shows as folks are willing to take the time to cover such a rich history.
