Taipei is the heart of Taiwan, luring with its unique atmosphere and a number of attractions that make it the first stop for visitors to Taiwan. Taipei is a unique global city where traditions, culture, and innovations seem to co-exist in perfect harmony. Vestiges of the Dutch rule and Japanese occupation are present in architecture, while Taoist temples and modern skyscrapers epitomize the current cultural climate of Taipei city. Compared to other Asian cities, the warm & hospitable nature of Taiwanese makes exploring Taipei so much easier. Time can be a challenge when trying to experience the multiple facades of Taipei. One of the incredible spots for a photoshoot is Elephant Mountain, It’s by far and away the best place to get a bird’s eye view of the city and Taipei 101 in particular. It’s a short and not too taxing hike to the top, and it’s the perfect location for a few snapshots of the city skyline.
