Taipei Travel Forum

Hi,

Plan to spent our cny holiday 3 nights 4 days in Taipei next year. We will arrive from Singapore around past noon time at csk airport. Also, we would like to have our wedding photos to be taken there. Pls pardon me to have a few questions to ask:


1) If stay at Rainbow Hotel, is it convenient to go to 101 building, shilin night market etc

2)Roughly we know weather is about 15-20 around that time. As for winter jacket, is it necessary to get thick one with internal fabric of down feather? Or just a knit sweater / jeans jacket will do?

3) Does or can we arrange with Rainbow hotel to provide pick up transport frm airport-hotel upon our arrival, and hotel-airport during our departure?

4) Can you recommend wedding photos studios for us?

5) Does the photographer have our wedding pictures done both in studio & outdoor?

6) Roughly how much will the price be? And do we require to have whole day for our pictures to be taken?

7) How to arrange appointment with them for our wedding pictures?

8) Can the photos be ready during our short stay there?

9) Lastly, beside Taipei. Possible for us to go ocean park or any places of interest?


Thank you for your help & patience as it's our 1st time to Taipei. Hope to hear from you.

Hi,
Firstly, Congrats.

Rainbow location is good. Near Ximen MRT Exit 6. Easy to go to 101, Shihlin Wufenpu e.t.c.

If you are not used to the cold then you have your under shirt or vest, Shirt Sweater and Jacket. I wear a Denim Jacket but that is lined Not necessary to be Down. While some people wear a lot others like me wear layers. We can then takeoff a layer if it gets warm(Walking a lot gets you warm) The only time it gets colder if there is a Cold front coming in from the North West. You can check up on that about 3 days before your departure.
This company has been advertising quite agressively recently:
It would be better if you contact them directly:

Vigor Photo Studio

CC Posted:
Chuech is one of the best-known studio for glamour shots. They have a store in Ximending, at No. 100 Wuchang St. Sec. 2. Their studio is located on Zhongshan N. Rd., between Shilin Night Market and Tianmu.

I don't have a particular salon to recommend, but what you can do is stroll along Zhongshan N. Rd. Sec. 2~4 (east side of road) and Aiguo E. Rd. (across from the CKS Memorial National Theatre), the "wedding studio streets", and talk to them, see their work and compare. Their packages include everything----hair, makeup, clothes and on location photo shoots. Prices will vary greatly depending on your selections, of course.
