I typically visit Taiwan every November and while in Taiwan, I enjoy joining the cooking classes here to learn how to make the food I love by myself. This year, 2020, I could not travel due to the pandemic. Taiwan has been doing very well during the pandemic in controlling the spread. My concern is more of getting on the plane etc. As my craving for Taiwanese food continued, I checked the website online and was ecstatic to find out that I can join a virtual class, horay! I got in touch with Chelsea (lovely lady, professional and sweet) and made a few requests. She was very accommodating due to my situation. I immediately booked two classes: the scallion pancakes and the potsticker classes. They sent instructions in advance. The instructions were easy to understand and I was able to get everything prepared. Diana was my instructor for both classes. She was beyond words!!!! In my first pancake making class, I messed up the dough. I showed her my failed dough in front of the camera and she immediately made the suggestion to do it over. I was concerned about her time and she patiently waited for me to start the dough again and watched me step by step. It is wonderful because what I was worried about attending a virtual class did not realize: I loved the in-person class because when you mess up you know the instructor will come to the rescue. I did not expect this to happen in a virtual class, but it did. Thank you Diana for ensuring that the scallion pancakes I made were delicious! Oh, the potstickers were amazing too. These two dishes now have been collected under my repertoire for party surprises! Yes, serving potstickers and scallion pancakes is not big deal to a party but if you show it off by making it right there, it definitely will draw a crowd. Oh! BTW, for potstickers they also teach you the secrets of making the beautiful fried dough flakes!!! My friends saw the pictures I took and immediately grilled me for the secrets!

One of the few remaining old Taipei homes, this charming building was meticulously dismantled and rebuilt on new land in 1984.

The Lin An-tai House is in Binjiang Park, it is quite easy to find and worth the walk from Yuanshan MRT Station on the Red (Tamshui-Xinyi) Line. This house is one of the oldest traditional houses in the Taipei area. It has been beautifully restored and gives a good idea of an ideal farming family house from days gone by. The house has an auspicious layout and good fengshui. It's cool in summer and warm in winter. The house, which is some 200 years old, is built in Fujian style, with red bricks and terra cotta tiles. It's well worth a visit.

Taipei people like dogs but finding somewhere to walk Fido can be difficult. There lots of room for dog walkers along the Keelung River between Zhongshan Bridge and Dazhi Bridge. If you want, you can hire a bicycle, or even skateboard, though I prefer walking. There's a water spout that comes to life for half an hour, every hour, on the hour.

The MRT is very efficient and excellent to use. The easiest way is to purchase an Easy card and you can check you balance or add value at any station via the machines where you can select English or else go to a booth where the staff can assist, All stations have the train line and stations and maps of the exits and attractions in Chinese and English. The trains are on time and the platforms have the stations listed for that linel in Chinese and English. On board all carriages are clean and spotless and the stations are announced in Chinese and English. So easy to travel around Taipei.
8. Fine Arts Museum

The twentieth-century collection housed at this art museum nestles chronologically between the ancient works in the National Palace Museum and the new works in the Institute of Contemporary Arts.
Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia
When the Fine Arts Museum opened in 1983, it was a cause for great joy among art lovers. Initially, it sought to develop modern art appreciation in Taiwan, revealing many works that had not previously been seen, such as Modernist art from the Japanese colonial era (1895-1945). Many of the paintings were in Impressionist style, and were quite beautiful. As the Museum developed its collection, it sought to enhance a cross fertilization between Taiwan and foreign artists. Some of the visiting exhibitions are interesting. Although the Fine Arts Museum has had its share of controversies, it is a boon to Taipei's art lovers.

This majestic shrine honors the Republic of China's war dead. Marvel at the soldiers' precision at the changing of the guard ceremony that occurs every hour.
Reviewed By 619jeffry - Essendon, Australia
The Martyrs' Shine commemorates at those soldiers who died in China's revolutionary wars in the 20th century. The Shrine is a fine structure, but the main attraction is the changing of the guard, every hour. This precision drill maneuver is a "must see" for visitors to Taipei.
