Taipei has so many play centers as it’s often either hot or rainy outside, making it important to have some good indoor place spaces to take kids. If you’re visiting (or living) in Taipei City, and are wondering what places to visit, here’s a list of our top 9 favorites. There’s way more fun play centers besides just these 9, but hopefully this list will help you in finding an enjoyable place to visit when the weather doesn’t permit outside play! Also, not included are the 13 free Taipei government play centers, which are also worth a visit!
