The room was very clean despite our early check in; the beds were comfortable; the shower water pressure + temperature were great; the area was quiet as it is in an alleyway, and the train station is <5 min walk away. Great value for price, and quality is up to standards. Thanks for a great stay.

National Palace Museum

4.5/5(552 reviews)

Once kept for the solitary enjoyment of emperors, today the world’s largest collection of Chinese antiquities and treasures can be enjoyed by all.

If you're visiting the National Palace Museum in Taipei be sure to make the short trip over to the Chiang Kai-Shek Shilin Residence. It's the palace and grounds of the former leader of Taiwan that is now open to the public. You'll lose yourself in the beautiful gardens and be amazed at the floral creations like this larger-than-life piano.

Entrance to the grounds and gardens is free but there is a small charge to visit the presidential residence itself.
