Taipei
The capital of Taiwan buzzes with a subtly contagious vivacity, whether you’re atop the 101 Skyscraper, or amidst the frantic action at street level. Unafraid to emblazon her proud Chinese history and heritage while intertwined with a globalizing world, Taipei’s cultural roots come alive in the diverse gastronomic treats at the Shilin, Raohe and Huaxi night markets, the shrouded beauty of Jiufen, and the myriad attractions across its landscape.
