Taipei after dark
Evenings in Taipei are night markets first and bars second. Xinyi's clubs around ATT 4 FUN run late at weekends, while Da'an's Anhe Road and the lanes off Fuxing hold the cocktail places. The MRT stops around midnight, so budget for a taxi or plan around the last train. Convenience stores sell beer at any hour and drinking it outside them is unremarkable.
What to eat in Taipei
Ningxia Night Market is the compact one locals actually send you to, for taro balls, oyster omelette and sesame oil chicken. Raohe beside Songshan Station carries the queue for Fuzhou pepper buns slapped onto a tandoor wall. Beef noodle soup is the civic dish and Yongkang Street has the famous bowls. Din Tai Fung began on Xinyi Road and still trades there.
What's actually worth your time in Taipei
Go up Taipei 101 on a clear evening for the 660-tonne tuned mass damper as much as the view. Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall costs nothing and the hourly guard change is worth timing. Longshan Temple in Wanhua is a working temple, densest during evening chanting. Elephant Mountain's twenty-minute stair climb delivers the skyline photograph people otherwise buy a tower ticket for.
What first-timers get wrong in Taipei
Buy an EasyCard at any MRT station. It works on metro, buses, YouBike and convenience stores, and drops bus fares to NT$15 rather than requiring exact coins. Do not tip; it confuses people. Street bins barely exist because household rubbish goes to musical collection trucks residents queue beside. Platform queue lines are painted onto the MRT floor and people genuinely stand in them.
What things cost in Taipei
An MRT ride costs NT$20 to 65 by distance and a bus segment NT$15 with an EasyCard. Night market plates run NT$50 to 100 each, so grazing dinner lands at NT$200 to 300. A bowl of beef noodle soup is NT$180 to 250. The National Palace Museum is NT$350, convenience-store coffee NT$45, a 7-Eleven bento around NT$80.
