Taipei, Taiwan |
I must say that Taipei is a good place to know about. The city is safe and clean, the weather warm, the foods delicious and affordable. Plentiful backalleys run rampant. The city sits in a basin that was once filled with water while the surrounding mountains are chock full of tea houses, hiking trails and hot springs. Taipei's been reborn with the birth of the MRT system mid 1990's. They say it was a nightmare before that. The people talk okay English though everything is written in Chinese and spoken in Mandarin. It's all loaded up with parks, museums and temples. And street fairs. It's also the last Taoist place on earth. I find it more interesting than Fair Lawn, NJ. It's a city the white man forgot about because there aren't any here. The haole is 1 in 10,000. Lots of motorbikes, chinese girls, palm trees & surf. I give Taipei a couple of thumbs up.
