Taiwanese cuisine ingeniously blends Eastern and Western features and create the internationally renowned iconic bubble tea and beef noodles. Furthermore, the geological features allow the local vegetables and fruits to be diversified, tasty, and sweet, earning Taiwan the reputation of "fruit kingdom" and the pineapple cakes, dried fruits, and nougats are popular souvenirs. Taiwan also has a variety of snacks including small sausage in large sausage, oyster omelette, and stinky tofu, all of which are must-try for tourists from abroad. The Shilin and Raohe Night Markets in Taipei, Feng Chia Night Market and Yizhong Street in Taichung, and Liuhe and Ruifeng Night Markets in Kaohsiung are popular destinations for gourmets.

Tourism

Taipei is the capital of Taiwan, whose well-constructed traffic networks provide convenient transportation to Taipei 101, Tamsui Old Street, and Jiufen, making it the best city for tourists from abroad to visit when coming to Taiwan. Meanwhile, Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung are also famous for their diverse cuisines and local characteristics loved by all. On the contrary, Hualien and Taitung in the east of the Central Mountains are different from the busy metropolises, in which rich natural resources and unique landscapes offer the features that smooth and relax your minds. Taiwan has a rich and beautiful ecological environment. There are more than 200 peaks above 3,000 meters, which is a rare geographical feature worldwide. The main peak of Mt. Jade, the top of the 100 Peaks of Taiwan, is the highest in Northeast Asia. Its magnificent beauty not only captures the hearts of mountain climbers, but also makes "conquering the top of Mt. Jade" one of the items to be checked on the bucket list of most Taiwanese citizens.

Culture

Taiwan's cultural diversity requires no redundant introduction. Today, you can still discover the life style of the indigenous peoples, Westerners, and the people during Japanese colonization period in buildings all over Taiwan. Nowadays, more fusion of multiple cultures can be witnessed from the integration of American culture, the revitalization of local culture and the culture brought in by Southeast Asian immigrants. Such inclusiveness is also reflected in festival activities including the three major Chinese festivals known as the Spring Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Mid-Autumn Festival, the annual rituals of indigenous peoples, and the folk and reunions traditions of various religious groups, all of which are cleverly integrated into modern times. When you visit Taiwan, make sure not to miss the opportunity to participate in local festivals.
