New Taipei City Trifecta Weekend 2026

October in Taipei brings a pleasant break from summer's heat, making it ideal for exploring the city's night markets and the dramatic northern coastline between training sessions. After the race, treat yourself to a steaming bowl of beef noodle soup or a plate of xiao long bao, then take the MRT to Xiangshan for a sunset view of the Taipei 101 skyline. The mild, dry weather is perfect for a post-race stroll through Dihua Street's historic lanes or a day trip to Jiufen's mountain town.
