An old Taipei walk: Longshan and Bopiliao

Temple carvings and preserved streets give Wanhua a different rhythm from the city’s skyline.

Example rail journey: BL12 → BL10

What to explore

Start at Longshan Temple and take time to look at the roof details without interrupting worshippers. Continue toward Bopiliao Historic Block for brick façades and the streetscape of old Wanhua. The contrast between an active temple and preserved buildings gives this short walk its focus.

Arrive by rail

The example ride starts at Taipei Main Station and ends at Longshan Temple station, BL10. Both sights require walking after the train. Bopiliao’s lanes and exhibition rooms have separate access arrangements; check its visitor page before making an indoor exhibition the centerpiece of your outing.

Make it your outing
