Cần Quan Tâm

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!

Excellent tour and excellent guides! Importantly, both guides are really local. Tripadvisor should very clearly state that it is a "free" tour that can be booked for free on other websites (The first part is kind of obvious by the price). Regardless, even if you are quite generous at the end, the tour itself is a great deal.

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.
