About
台湾的首都和最大城市，以夜市、Taipei 101摩天大楼、温泉和充满活力的街头美食而闻名。是东亚重要的科技和文化中心。
Taipei is the capital and largest city of Taiwan, set in the northern part of the island. It works well as a base for a visit to the island, and it rewards an unhurried stay of its own.
What to see and do
- Night markets are among the city's best-known attractions, drawing visitors in the evening for food stalls and browsing.
- Taipei 101, a skyscraper that rises above the city, is one of its landmarks and a clear reference point when you are getting your bearings.
- Hot springs are part of the city's offer, giving a change of pace from the busy streets.
- Street food is a central part of daily life here, and eating from small stalls and local shops is one of the simplest ways to get to know the city.
The city today
Taipei is a major technology and cultural hub in East Asia. Its mix of modern towers, busy commercial streets and older neighbourhoods makes it a city of contrasts, where a day can move easily from a skyscraper to a crowded market.
Known also as Taibei, Táiběi and Formosa, the city is easy to recognise under any of these names. Whether you come for its food, its markets or its energy, Taipei offers a lively introduction to Taiwan.
