Taiwan

Discover Taiwan through Taipei’s neighborhoods, the cities of the west coast and the island’s mountain landscapes. Use this overview to decide which places fit your interests and available time.

Where to start

Taipei & the North

Taipei combines temples, night markets and the Taipei 101 skyline. Beyond the city, northern Taiwan includes the hillside streets of Jiufen and the hot springs of Beitou.

Central Taiwan

Taichung introduces another of Taiwan’s major cities, while Sun Moon Lake and the mountains of Nantou offer a different setting for the next part of your journey.

Tainan & the South

Tainan’s temples and historic streets contrast with Kaohsiung’s harbor setting. Southern Taiwan adds another perspective on the island’s urban life, food and cultural heritage.

Build your route

Start with your arrival and departure airports, then choose your overnight bases. Compare a Taipei-focused stay with a route that continues through central or southern Taiwan.

Separate city transfers from mountain journeys when planning your days. Include the time needed to reach stations, collect luggage and connect with local transport.

Before you book

Check current access information for outdoor destinations, including trails and mountain roads. Confirm that the places you want to visit are accessible for your travel dates.

Review entry requirements for your passport, transport schedules and accommodation locations. Keep an indoor alternative for outdoor sightseeing days, and allow flexibility if weather affects your plans.
