Very Informative Tour! - Thank you to Vicky for our amazing tour of Ximending and for the informative historical insights about Taipei! She was so accommodating to our schedule as we slightly overbooked. Overall, she walked my mom and I through the history of how Ximending came about and it was very interesting to know and see how things developed. As an architect in the US, I could really appreciate everything Vicky shared with me about Taiwan's architecture and seeing how things developed. If you're into getting a snippet of Taiwan's urban development, I would highly recommend taking this tour!
