💰 How far does your money go?
A bowl of beef noodle soup costs around €6, less than a menú del día in Barcelona. A convenience store coffee is about €1.50, and a full meal from a night market stall rarely tops €9. Your daily budget stretches a lot further here than on a weekend in Spain.
☀️ The Weather
Taipei sits comfortably around 23°C by day in November, dropping to a mild 20°C at night. December cools things down slightly, with highs near 21°C and lows around 16°C. Expect the odd shower, but nothing that stops you exploring the city on foot.
🏨 Where to Stay
Options across the city, from Ximending backpacker spots to five-star towers in Xinyi.
Hione Holiday Hotel — 8.2/10 · From €42/night Simple, well-located and easy on the wallet, close to Taipei Main Station.
Palais de Chine Hotel — 8.7/10 · From €120/night Central, polished, and steps from the high-speed rail for day trips out of the city.
Mandarin Oriental Taipei — 9.1/10 · From €290/night Full luxury, spa included, for anyone treating this trip as a proper escape.
🎯 What to Do
Taipei moves fast by day and comes alive by night.
Taipei 101 Observatory — Ride up to the 89th floor for a 360-degree view over the whole city. Shilin Night Market — Taipei's biggest night market, built for grazing your way through stall after stall. Jiufen Old Street — Steep lantern-lit lanes and teahouses that inspired half the internet's Studio Ghibli comparisons. Beitou Hot Springs — Natural thermal baths a short MRT ride from the city centre.
🗺️ Where to Go From Here
Taipei is a launchpad, not the whole trip.
Jiufen & Shifen — Old mining town and sky lantern village, about an hour by bus from the city. Sun Moon Lake — Taiwan's largest freshwater lake, roughly 2.5 hours south by bus. Taroko Gorge — A marble canyon with cliffs over 1,000m high, best as a two-day trip by train. Kaohsiung — Taiwan's southern port city, around 1.5 hours away on the high-speed rail.
From €441 return, this is one of the cheapest ways into East Asia this winter. Dates like these don't sit unsold for long.
