Taipei (台北市)

Taipei is capital city of Taiwan. The city is very international. You can find many kind of entertainments, and foods.The foods are great. There are many night-market which you can spend whole evening there, the foods are cheap in the market too. There are also many things you can do in Taipei area, hiking,cycling,shopping,etc. Think the living cost is cheaper,compare to Tokyo. Taipei really had been changing a lot since we lived there, much more clean ,less air pollution, the traffic is much nicer.




It's the tallest building in the world ,we call it 101 building( I am aware that China & Dubai are building the tallest building, too. sooner 101 will not be the tallest in the world). The view is fantastic if you take elevator to the top,and look down whole Taipei city,also there is restaurant on top, too. We had a lunch over there, unfortunately the weather was very bad we could not take some photos. We were there for New year 2009. The firework display were wonderful, and they are so beautiful that we couldn't stop click on our camera.

This is national palace museum in Taipei. I heard It has a permanent collection of over 650,000 pieces of ancient Chinese artifacts and artworks, making it one of the largest in the world. Taiwan Just start having flight direct from island to Mainland China. We saw many mainland Chinese tourist over there.

Taipei has very nice transportation network. It's too bad we didn't have more time to stay and revisiting old place and take more photos,we will have to wait next time.
