• The must-eat delicacy in Tamsui Old Street, Aji, is a literal translation of part of the Japanese deep-fried tofu. The method is to hollow out the middle of the deep-fried tofu, fill it with fried winter noodles, soak it in marinade, and then use fish paste Sealed and steamed, topped with sweet chili sauce or the store's unique secret sauce. Special snacks such as: fish balls, grandma's iron eggs, fish cakes, etc. There are also many historical sites to visit, so you will never get tired of playing.
  
  
• The original site of the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall was the Army Headquarters, which was the largest military area in Taipei City at that time. It is said that the gold transported from the mainland was once stored in this place. With the development of democracy and the opening of the mind, the square in front of the memorial hall has become a meeting place for the democratic movement. With white walls and blue tiles, it stands 70 meters high in the center of the memorial park, no matter from which angle you look at it, it is very magnificent. When foreign tourists come to Taiwan, no matter what their itinerary is, they will definitely visit here.
  
  
• Taipei 101 (Optional: Observation Deck Tickets )
  Taking the world's fastest elevator, it takes only 37 seconds to reach the "High Sky Lounge Area" on the observation deck on the 89th floor, and the bohemian-style "Outdoor Moon Viewing Area" on the outdoor viewing platform on the 91st floor is even more romantic.
