A Qing dynasty gate right across a Western-looking building, a park with two names where Chinese pavilions and a neoclassical style Museum are separated by a Japanese pond...why is Taipei such a mix of different architectures, and what is the history behind them? What is the 228 incident, and why is it important in Taiwan's modern history? How did the most significant LGBT Pride Parade in Asia start?
Unravel the mystery in our monthly walking tour!
