Northern Taiwan is the most urban and cosmopolitan part of the country. It rains a lot and there’s a ton of people everywhere, but it’s where most people start their journey, and a great way to get a taste of Taiwan with the convenience of a big city while also having many easy day trips to see the beautiful natural landscapes. >>
Central Taiwan is the heart of Taiwan. It encompasses the western region between northern Taiwan and southern Taiwan. It’s home to the second biggest city in Taiwan, Taichung, but also to sleepier more “local” villages and townships, as well as more rural parts of Taiwan, including the tallest mountain, the biggest lake, and breathtaking landscapes. >>
Southern Taiwan carries the tradition and history of Taiwan. Life is a little slower here, the weather a little warmer, and the people too. From the temples of Tainan to the beach culture of Kenting, there’s a reason the south is a popular destination for local visitors and travelers alike. >>
Eastern Taiwan is the soul of Taiwan. It’s less connected to the rest of the island so you have to embrace island time to get here, but that’s how they preserve the most pristine and untouched parts of Taiwan. This region is cherished for its natural beauty, the mountains on one side and ocean on the other. From aboriginal villages to hot springs, eastern Taiwan is perfect for a cultural and ecological getaway. >>
