[quote=DAVEC,233598]Hi, I went to Taiwan last year for 3 weeks travelled the island down western side,across the mountains and then back up eastern side. I think the must see places have to be Taipei 101 (worlds tallest building when it was built) which gives great views, Sun Moon Lake for its wonderful panoramic images and peacefulness(I put some images on photo album), Taroko gorge which is mind blowing in its size. For history it is worth visiting Tainan and Hsinchu with its old buildings. For scenery anywhere in or around the mountains such as Alishan. We stayed in hotels and motels all around and with the exception of Sun Moon Lake everywhere was cheap, all rooms were clean and large. When it comes to eating there are plenty of choices and night markets were great to try unusual food. If you go to Danshui then check out the local dish of A-gi which is fried tofu and noodles in a warm soup/broth very very tasty and cheap, when we arrived in Danshui by ferry the first food shop infront of you serves it. We had a car to drive round which was ok as the person driving was native Taiwanese but I would not recommend driving as the Taiwan people are crazy drivers and very dangerous. The trains we used were clean and efficient and will get you to most cities and I understand the coaches and buses are the same. Enjoy your time in Taiwan it is very scenic and provided they are not given wheels the people are the friendliest I have ever met. I had lovely time and will be going back as soon as I can.[/quote]
