Best time to visit Taipei

Spring season (Chun Tian, March to May, 18–25°C / 64–77°F, shoulder season)
Spring in Taipei brings mild temperatures, fresh greenery, and comfortable walking weather. Light layers work well as days gradually become warmer and more humid. It is a pleasant time to explore neighbourhood streets, riverside parks, and nearby hillsides as plants come into bloom.

Summer season (Xia Tian, June to September, 26–33°C / 79–91°F, peak season)
Summer is warm and humid, with long daylight hours that suit relaxed starts and later evenings out. Brief showers are common, but they often pass quickly, giving you time to enjoy indoor attractions and air-conditioned malls before heading back outside.

Autumn and winter season (Qiu Dong, October to February, 15–22°C / 59–72°F, low season)
Autumn and winter are generally cooler, with many clear, comfortable days and fewer visitors at some attractions. A light jacket is usually enough for most days in the city. This period suits slower-paced trips, museum visits, and scenic rides on the gondola into the surrounding hills.
