  • City Life

    Taipei is a thoroughly modern and typically bustling Asian city, with many superb restaurants and shopping opportunities. It's also a great base for day trips to the national parks, hot springs and lush hills of northern Taiwan.

    City Life

  • Hot springs

    Sitting on the same volcanic ridge as Japan, hot springs are plentiful in Taiwan. Tucked away in the mountains that surround Taipei are dozens of thermal springs, offering highly relaxing alternative to city life.

  • National history

    Culturally, Taiwan has a more genuinely preserved collection of Chinese artefacts than the mainland, with the National Palace Museum in Taipei home to the world's largest collection thanks to Chiang Kai-shek's mass pilfer during the Chinese civil war.

    Taiwan is home to traditional Chinese culture and customs long since banished from mainland China by the communists. Religion is extremely important to many Taiwanese, as evidenced by the numerous Buddhist and Confucian temples that can be found across the island.
