I spent two years there but my last visit was around 1980. Except for the insane traffic I doubt if much has changed. You must visit the National Palace Museum. It's located very close to the Grand Hotel which can be seen from just about anywhere in Taipei. You will certainly want to visit a couple of the larger temples like the Longshan Temple and the Taipei Confucius Temple. And of course there are many photo ops at the local outdoor markets. The weather in October will certainly be more comfortable than it is in July.
