Taipei has been a memorable holiday for me.. and now that I am back home - I find that I miss the quiet tranquality there. It has a laid back feeling that would seduce many a visitor back.
Despite not being as hyped up as many other North Asian countries as a tourist destination, should one take the time to explore and to feel the heart beat of the country, its not hard to see why many a person would want to move and call Taipei home. |
|  | Ok now - as mentioned previously, one of my MAIN purpose to this trip is to tantalize my taste buds with the culinary delights thats in Taipei.. *yes* .. it has always been said that other countries have a wider variety and assortments in which to tempt even the most discerning food critic but heck.. I am not one who is fussy and it is on to the plane I came.. and as yet, I have yet to be dissapointed to say the least.
Its been food, food and GLORIOUS FOOD as yet - check out my RESTAURANT page for some samples of what I have tried.... |

The 101 Building is awesome, Shilin Market enticing and the changing of the guards would be amusing to watch--Taipei is certainly a city that has some exciting sights for the traveler! | millablake Fri Oct 6, 2006 09:46 UTC
