TaiPei - any recommendations on things to see?

[The Girls' Mom]

My dh will be spending about 2.5 weeks in TaiPei/Keelung City next month for work.  He'll have some down time on the weekends to explore a little, and was trying to figure out what was worth spending his time doing.  He's a semi-adventurous eater too, so food recs are welcomed as well.  I've already informed him that if he ever wants to kiss me again, Century Eggs are a no go.

 

Any recommendations?

I lived there many years ago.  The National Palace Museum was amazing: it had most of the treasures from the Forbidden City in Beijing.

Palace Museum. It's so much of the art that they took out of China. Everything big. You can barely even see old Chinese art in China and Western collections tend to be scattershot - all the good pieces are there.
