We'll meet at Exit 5 of Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall metro station to kick off this tour of Taipei. Ready?
First, we'll stroll through the iconic Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall and the majestic Liberty Square. As we admire the architecture of the National Theater and National Concert Hall, we'll go over the life of this political leader and the island's historical context.
Next, we'll walk to 228 Peace Memorial Park, a key spot for understanding Taiwan's modern history and the pivotal February 28, 1947 incident. Then, we'll see the outside of the Presidential Office Building, taking a closer look at its Japanese colonial-era architecture and its role in politics today.
We'll continue on foot to Ximending, Taipei's liveliest and most youthful district, famous for its pop culture, theaters, and buzzing pedestrian streets. From there, we'll hop on the metro to Longshan Temple, one of the oldest and most important temples in Taipei. Surrounded by incense burners and intricate carvings, we'll learn about the blend of Buddhism, Taoism, and folk beliefs, as well as the rituals and traditions locals use to honor their deities.
We'll say our goodbyes here after 3 hours in total.
