Probably one of the most famous things to do in Taipei is go to the Taipei 101, which is the tallest and most iconic building in the city. On the first few floors of the Taipei 101 is a luxury mall, but the most popular attraction is the Taipei 101 Observatory, which is located on the 89th and 91st floors. The entrance price is a pretty steep cost of 500 Taiwan Dollars, but it’s a popular thing to do and I wanted to check it out during out trip. We arrived in the morning, right after they opened at about 9 am, bought our tickets, and went to the elevator to go to the top of the building. The elevator ride, which they claim is the fastest elevator in the world, was quite amazingly fast. It felt like it only took about 10 seconds but in reality it actually took about 40 seconds - but to get to the 89th floor, it was still incredibly fast. Once at the top, it was mostly just an observatory set up specifically for tourists, but still worth it for the amazing views of Taipei city and the surrounding mountains.
After going to the Taipei 101 Observatory, we came down, and there happens to be a branch of Din Tai Fung, the famous Taiwanese soup dumplings restaurant at the Taipei 101. Luckily we arrived quite early when the restaurant wasn’t too busy, so we happen to get seats easily for lunch. I made a separate full video about eating at Din Tai Fung, which I’ll post later.
After lunch, since were were still near the Taipei 101, we decided to go to Elephant Hill, a mountain near Taipei 101 where there are some hiking and nature trails. After figuring out which trail to take, we took a staircase trail, which was well marked out to Elephant Hill. The walk didn’t take more than about 20 minutes, and once we arrived at the Elephant Hill lookout point, we could see the entire skyline of Taipei, but a much different perspective of Taipei from the Taipei 101 Observatory. It was good to see and I enjoyed the outdoor atmosphere and the different perspective of the skyline from the mountain. I would highly recommend going to Elephant Hill when you’re in Taipei.
Next, we rushed off to the Taipei Zoo, one of the largest and most developed zoos in Asia. The price was only 60 TWD, and it was very nice to just spend some time walking around and enjoying both the animals and the impressively lush and tropical zoo grounds. I think the Taipei zoo is one of the great things to do if you have kids, or even you can go just to walk around and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. After the Taipei zoo, we wanted to go to the Maokong Gondola, but due to stormy weather, the Gondola closed, so we had to change our plans.
From the Taipei Zoo, we headed back to the Dongmen area and had a snack of a famous Taiwanese shaved ice, and then we had dinner at a local restaurant.
That was it for Day 4 in Taiwan - pretty cool to have a chance to visit the Taipei 101 Observatory.

Taipei Internship Placement (Programme Overview)
Let our Taipei Branch Manager Daniel Miller tell you more about InternChina’s Taipei Placement Programme.
Daniel will introduce you to a city that may be a little under your radar. This is not just a city that is capable of captivating you with its beauty and culture, but the ideal place to start your career in Asia.

2:27 - ECONOMY AND PROSPECTS
3.45 - EXPLORE AND THRIVE
4:26 - SUPPORT FROM INTERNCHINA
FOOD CULTURE-
One of the best ways to discover Taipei is to try and eat the different cuisines. Taipei is a melting pot of lots of different Asian Cultures and traditional and modern influences, and the food reflects this aspect. For sure, you can taste the dominant Chinese influence and sample cuisines from every province: Dainty little ‘Dimsum’ from Guangzhou to the tantalizing spice of Sichuan. Also, Taipei arguably has the best Japanese food outside Japan and the best Korean food outside Korea. With a large immigrant population from across South East Asia as well- delicious Thai, Vietnamese, Malay, and Filipino food is also readily available.
ECONOMY AND PROSPECTS-
In terms of Economy and prospects, The Economist ranks Taipei as having the 5th highest nominal GDP in East Asia, behind Tokyo, Osaka, Singapore, and Hong Kong. Thankfully, the accommodation rental and living costs is nowhere as high which makes it intern friendly. The Financial Times and Business Insider regard Taipei as having huge business potential and the most high-tech city in East Asia. Google has its Asian headquarters here for instance, and most of the fortune 500 companies do so too.
We are currently partnered with more than 60 companies, offering over 100 unique opportunities in Start-ups, small and medium Size businesses, and large corporates. And these numbers will only increase week after week. We are confident in finding the placement that suits your academic background, but more importantly your ambitions. We help you with writing CVs and cover letters at the application stage, walk you through the Interview and then directly liaise with the host company to make sure it is the right placement for you.
EXPLORE AND THRIVE –
Welcome to a city that is renowned for its blend of Chinese, Japanese and Western influences. Every street corner in older neighbourhoods breathes history and tradition; neighbourhoods have 300-year-old Taoist and Confucian temples next to creaky restored Japanese mansions. Taipei houses the National Palace Museum, which is a condensed treasure trove full of the Jewels and artefacts of China’s rich 5000-year-old history.
There is plenty to discover and a year is not nearly enough to discover all of its secrets and charms.
SUPPORT FROM INTERNCHINA -
As a team we are always here to support you from pre-departure support regarding the Visa. We help you do all parts of the application and process it as part of the programme. We answer any questions or concerns you may have before you set off.
When you arrive, you will have 24-hour on-site support in Taipei. We will pick you up from the airport, give you an orientation to the city and the culture; introduce you to the host company, support you in finding accommodation; organising weekly dinners with all of the interns and regular intern activities- such as surfing, networking events, and trips to other parts of Taiwan.
We are also partnered with a top language school to offer competitively priced Chinese classes should you wish to learn the lingo during your time here.
We are here to make sure you make the best of your experience in Taipei.
