Perhaps no other island in Asia can match the variety of landscapes, delicious foods, and cultural sites available throughout Taiwan. Best explored by bike, you can visit stunning butterfly habitats, mineral hot springs, and museums sharing Asia's greatest treasures. A defining characteristic of the culture, Taiwanese food makes its way into every facet of life. Visit the bustling night markets, dive into hot pot meals, and impress friends with gifts of pineapple tarts.
