Highlights
Step into living history at Xin Fang Chun Tea House, a beautifully restored 1934 tea mansion in Taipei's historic Dadaocheng district, once the city's largest tea factory. Experience a hands-on Taiwanese tea ceremony where you brew, compare, and recognize Taiwan's most famous teas. The tea master demonstrates the traditional brewing method, including water temperature, leaf quantity, steeping time, and pouring order. Then it's your turn. Guided by your English-speaking TourMeAway guide, you'll brew your own tea while learning traditional tea etiquette. Taste four classic Taiwanese teas: Wenshan Baozhong, Alishan Oolong, Tieguanyin, and Oriental Beauty. Discover where each is grown, how oxidation shapes flavor, and what to look for in aroma and flavor, paired with traditional tea sweets. Test your palate in a tea guessing game. You can also wear a qipao or Zhongshan suit for memorable photos (optional, subject to availability). The experience ends back at Xin Fang Chun Tea House.

About Taipei
Taipei is Taiwan's capital, a hill-ringed city of night markets, temples, hot springs, tea houses and the tall Taipei 101 tower.
Taipei sits in a basin ringed by green mountains, and Taipei 101, a 508-metre tower styled on bamboo segments, is its skyline marker. The National Palace Museum holds a vast collection of imperial Chinese art, the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall stands at one end of a broad plaza, and Longshan Temple is a busy shrine of incense and carved dragons. Dihua Street preserves old shopfronts selling tea, herbs and dried goods.
Top-ranked sights in Taipei: Shifen Waterfall, Taipei 101, Yehliu Geopark.
