Start your day at Taipei 101 and Xinyi District, spinning the many PokéStops around the skyscraper while enjoying panoramic city views from the plaza; stop at Balle Balle or a nearby café for a quick breakfast and coffee to fuel your hunt. From there, head to the nearby Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and enter the large plaza and gardens where lures often attract water- and flying-type spawns — it’s also a great spot for trading and meeting local trainers.
Make your way to Daan Forest Park for a picnic-style lunch from a local bento shop and an extended raid session among the park’s ponds and tree-lined paths, where community groups frequently organize raids and trades. After the park, wander through the nearby Yongkang Street for street snacks like xiao long bao and mango shaved ice while checking gyms and rare spawns between cafes and boutique shops.
As dusk falls, head to the lively Shilin Night Market where neon lights, street food stalls, and dense PokéStops create prime evening-catching conditions — grab fried chicken and bubble tea while spinning stops and battling in gyms. Finish the night with a short MRT ride to the riverside along Tamsui or Bitan for a relaxing post-hunt stroll and to incubate any eggs you collected during the day while enjoying waterfront views.
