Taipei Attractions
Wondering about things to do in Taipei? Get wired and go! With WiFi reaching 90% of Taipei's public spaces, you can surf the Web while you browse the night markets, fire off tweets from temple stairways, or compose a poem about sausage-on-a-stick. One thing's for sure: this digital city will give you plenty to post about everything you do. The Adventure Kayak Club offers sea, lake, and river canoeing for individuals and families around the island. One of many outlets across several Asian countries, the local Shiatzy Chen enjoys popularity among women who prefer feminine, delicate outfits. Shin Kong Mitsukoshi is a Japanese department store that emphasizes high-quality brand-name goods. SOGO Taipei Store is Taiwan's leading department store in terms of overall revenue and popularity. Shihlin Night Market is a seemingly never-closing night market just minutes away from the downtown area. Obviously residents of Taipei love to shop. If you do too, join them.
