Taipei Travel

The wall-less Taipei National University of the Arts (TNUA) atop Mt. Guandu commands a panoramic view of the Guandu Plain. It is a complex of unique school buildings with red bricks, gray walls, black roof tiles and decorative lines that stretch along the mountain slope, where patches of grassland, meandering foot paths and a multitude of installation arts merge into a unique architectural style. Not only are the on-campus Paulaner or DAVINCI restaurants perfect for nightscape viewing, it also affords a fantastic view of every corner of the campus, from classrooms, art galleries to the auditorium. It showcases how arts are interwoven with everyday life. Also worth exploring are the decorative installation arts.
