I’ve visited Taipei twice. The first time, I couldn’t get into the city as I was told that the traffic was too heavy to get in and back for my flight. But the next time, as Taipei was the destination I got into the city and had a great time.

I was with a friend of mine from work who knew Mandarin, so that helped a lot. I know you’ll enjoy the city when you visit too.

Taipei, Taiwan's vibrant capital, is a city that perfectly blends tradition with modernity, offering an array of activities that cater to every type of traveler.

From exploring iconic landmarks like the towering Taipei 101 to wandering through bustling night markets with an assortment of delectable treats, there's something in Taipei for everyone to enjoy. I really enjoyed the night market.

You can immerse yourselves in the cultural tapestry woven through the city's temples, museums, and historic neighborhoods.
