17 Things to See and Do in Taiwan (Updated 2025)

"Hidden on a busy thoroughfare in Ximending, I find stepping through the entrance to Tianhou Temple (the Ximending Mazu Temple) to be a surreal, peaceful experience — this Qing-period temple (around since 1746) is filled with mythological creatures, smoky incense, lucky goldfish, and worshippers, and it's easy to miss the entrance despite its central location." - Matthew Kepnes
