Chinese New Year: These traditional holidays falls in late January or twice as often in early or mid February. It is the greatest and longest holiday festival in Taiwan, which lasts four days generally. In the streets, see lion dances, temple fairs, and displaysof glowing lanterns. In the air above Taipei, on the night of the full moon, watch the thousands of lit lanterns fly up in the Taipei Lantern Fair.

The National Palace Museum is a world-class museum where you can see the world's greatest collection of ancient Chinese antiques. They date from as far back as the Zhou Dynasty about 3,000 years ago. Some of the best Qing Dynasty (1644–1911) treasures are preserved there. On the Chinese mainland, many treasures were destroyed or stolen.
