I just got back from a short trip to Taiwan and can’t wait to go back again next year. The food was great and so was the company. My only regret was I didn’t take as many leisure shots as I would have loved to. Despite the busy schedule, I had to make sure I had enough time for at least one shot, the Taipei 101 World Financial Center. How could anyone visit Taipei without checking out this mega structure? Taipei 101 was the tallest building from 2004 to 2010 when Burj Dubai was opened. It was quite an amazing sight!
One of the things I noticed while I was in Taiwan was that every single one stood on one side of elevators allowing people to walk up and down the other side if they were in a hurry. Also, when queuing for trains, people actually queued up perfectly and allowed people to come out before heading in. This isn’t something I experience back in Singapore although it’s improving through the years.
Finding my way around was easy. People were mostly very friendly and went out of the way to help if you needed something. At no point did I feel it was dangerous while I was in Taiwan. It’s definitely a great place to hang out for finger food and shopping all the way to the night.
