Here is what 3 days in Taipei look like when the planner builds them: stops grouped by proximity so no day doubles back, one full day at a time. The same route can be built for any length, from two days to a week.
This is an example. The planner builds a different route for your dates, real opening hours, how you get around and your own preferences.
Build your own itinerary - your dates, your preferences ←Taipei 101, Shilin Night Market, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, Din Tai Fung (Taipei 101 Branch), National Palace Museum, Ximending
Any season works - MupDay plans around opening hours and the weather, and rebuilds your days as you add or remove places.
Most travellers spend between two and five days in Taipei. MupDay builds a full itinerary for whatever length you pick - two days, three, four or a week - splitting the places across the days by proximity and opening hours, so each day stands on its own.
Pick places in MupDay and it auto-builds a day-by-day route with no zig-zag, weather-aware.
