3 of Taiwan’s most interesting temples πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡Όβ›©οΈ

Taiwan’s temples are beautifulβ€”but look a little closer and there’s often much more to discover.

Here are 3 that made our Top 5, and what makes each one so interesting:

πŸ“ Hu Sheng Glass Temple β€” Lukang, Changhua
✨ Look closer: Around 70,000 pieces of hand-worked glass went into this Mazu templeβ€”and no screws were used in its construction. Instead, the pieces are held together with glass clamps.

πŸ“ Fo Guang Shan Monastery & Buddha Museum β€” Kaohsiung
✨ Did you know? The eight seven-story pagodas lining the Buddha Museum aren’t just for show. They symbolize the Noble Eightfold Path, one of the fundamental teachings of Buddhism.

πŸ“ Bishan Kaizhang Shengwang Temple β€” Neihu, Taipei
✨ More than the view: This mountainside temple is the largest in Taipei dedicated to Kaizhang Sheng Wang. Like many temples in Taiwan, its side halls also honor other deitiesβ€”a glimpse into the layered traditions of Taiwanese folk religion.

And these are only 3 of our Top 5. πŸ‘€

Which other two made the list?

πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡Ό LANDING IN TAIWAN SOON? Don't leave the airport without doing these 3 things! βœˆοΈπŸ‘‡

Stepping off the plane at Taoyuan International Airport is incredibly exciting, but before you rush off to grab your first bubble tea, take a few minutes to set yourself up for a smooth trip.

Many first-time travelers skip these simple steps and end up standing at a night market wondering why no one accepts their credit card. (Spoiler: cash is still king at many local spots!)

πŸ‘‰ Swipe through for your ultimate 3-step airport checklist:

1️⃣ Get Some Taiwan Dollars πŸ’΅
Exchange your currency at one of the airport banks, or withdraw cash from an airport ATM before you leave. Many local eateries and night market vendors still prefer cash.

2️⃣ Stay Connected Instantly πŸ“Ά
Set up an eSIM before you land, or head to the airport telecom counters right outside baggage claim for a local SIM card. Chunghwa Telecom is widely known for its excellent nationwide coverage.

3️⃣ Grab an EasyCard πŸ’³
Pick one up at any airport convenience store (7-Eleven or FamilyMart). You'll use it for the MRT, buses, convenience stores, and even vending machines. Pro tip: Don't just grab the first plain card you see! Airport shops often stock limited-edition and character designs featuring PokΓ©mon, Hello Kitty, bubble tea, and more. It's one of the most practical souvenirs you can take home.

These three quick stops take less than 20 minutes, but they'll save you time, reduce stress, and let you start exploring Taiwan the moment you leave the airport.

Must-Try Taiwanese Street Food πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡Ό | Ep. 5: Braised Pork Rice 🍚πŸ”₯

Think all braised pork rice is the same?

Not quite. Across Taiwan, you'll find different styles of this beloved comfort food. Some bowls feature finely chopped braised pork, while others are topped with tender pork belly.

Different styles. Same comfort food. ❀️

What they all have in common? Pork that's slow-braised for rich flavor, paired with savory gravy and served over a bowl of steaming rice. Simple, satisfying, and loved throughout Taiwan.

Next time you're exploring Taiwan, keep an eye out for these common menu names:

πŸ“ 滷肉飯
πŸ“ 肉η‡₯ι£―
πŸ“ 焒肉飯
