Taipei is the capital of Taiwan, the large island formerly known as Formosa, just off the coast of China. Officially, this commonwealth is currently a part of the PROC, but it has had a very tumultuous history due to its location between Japan and China.
Because of its location as a gateway to the East, it is a very popular stopover destination. I have used it as such twice and found it to be every bit as exciting as some of my final destinations.
Perhaps the most well known feature of this city is its bounty of night markets and food. The origin of your milk teas and soup dumplings, Taiwan is a food lover’s fever dream.
