This temple is very big. There are three different parts and do not miss any of them. You have to walk approximately 500 meters from the train station. It is very beautiful and very clean. There is also a souvenir store. I needed approximately one hour to see everything. I wish I could understand all these pictures and statues.

This temple is one of the oldest and most significant buildings in the Taipei area. The modern structure was completed in 1804. Be sure to visit the library located behind the temple, where you can enjoy a stunning view from the third floor.

An impressive temple. We went around 19:00 on a rainy day and there were only a couple of visitors. Totally worth the visit.

This sprawling and amazingly beautiful temple complex has large temples and courtyards on one side, and sculptures and water gardens across the street. It is a popular place for local worshippers, but also a favorite photo spot for tourists. Plan on spending about an hour here to see everything. Be aware that there are often many worshippers bowing and burning incense, but don’t feel like you have to do anything other than enjoy the beauty of the place. Be careful not to get between the worshippers and the altars that they are bowing to, and don’t take any close photos of them without their permission out of respect.

Unique temple with a UNESCO designation that is certainly a highlight of any visit to Taipei. It is free to visit but can get crowded. The smell of incense abounds reminding you that you are at a religious shrine and cultural significance. Temple is easily accessible by subway of bus. The artistic representation of the sculptures is so colorful and ornate it reminds you of the high artistic achievements they have reached and made their culture so rich and unique. A must see in Taiwan.

It's a really nice temple that's worth a visit if you are in the area. There is some interesting history to it which you can read about while you are there (also in English). There are people praying there, so please be mindful.

This is a gorgeous temple that's a bit out of the main tourist areas. Take the red line here and walk ten minutes for a cheap way to reach this. Go during the week to have it mostly to yourself. Walk around back to see all the rooms around the edges. Pay attention to the ceilings and columns for hidden art detailing. It's free to visit.
