As personally in any place where I go, first of all, are interesting to me people, and I will begin the story with people. Taiwan - the wonderful island with wonderful people and culture. And people - the first why it is worth going here. I rather often travel, and anywhere to me so many sympathetic and kind people did not meet. In Taypey you have no chance to remain helpless, to you surely will help, will show the way, having lovely smiled and having thanked you 10 times. Not for nothing the island is recognized as one of tourist friendly of corners of the world.
I Will give an example - there was a rain at night, in the morning I went outside to breathe fresh air and at the same time to drink coffee, but, unfortunately, a bench where I usually sat was wet, and there was no wish to come back to hotel behind napkins. Having reconciled to that it is necessary to stand, I began to look on hurrying for work or study of citizens. But far from it, as from the bus standing at the road, there was a driver with a rag. Having run up to a bench, it accurately wiped it, and having lovely smiled, invited me to sit down. It seems, then I understood that I will fall in love Taypey. Or one more case - bought in shopping center power bank for phone and from the same seller wanted to buy earphones which very much were pleasant to me. But the seller advised against. Told that they will quickly fail and in general, according to him, on this floor you should not take earphones. That's the way it is. Somehow it was difficult to present that someone here will refuse to sell the goods.
Certainly, any travel begins with the airport, and I was met by the International airport Taiwan Taoyuan. Very pure airport with duty free where it is possible to buy to crown it all traditional cakes and the well-known tea oolong. Leaving the airport, be ready that you will meet either a rain, or incredibly damp weather.
In general, I consider, what even the most whimsical tourist will open for himself on Taiwan something special. Here beautiful mountains - if want to see a fascinating landscape, I recommend to sweep on Taipei Maokong Gondola ropeway. By the way, nearby there is the largest and oldest zoo on Taiwan. The zoo occupies 165 hectares, the territory in 90 hectares is open for visit. The Taybeysky zoo annually accepts more than four million tourists. Only, if you got there to days off, prepare for huge turn. After all wishing to see a panda in this zoo there is a lot of.
of the Night markets
As well as in many cities of South East Asia, Taypey dazzles with the night markets - a favourite place of tourists. In the night markets it is possible not only to buy souvenirs, various knickknacks, accessories for mobile phones, caps and undershirts, but also to eat well. But be ready to that at certain counters will smell not really pleasantly is so-called stincky tofu or "smelly" tofu. However, the smell stops the few, and those who tasted this fried tofu, say that it is incredibly tasty. By the way, in the markets it is possible to bargain quietly and you will be given a discount.
the Most popular markets are a Raokhe Knight oldest on Taipei a market and Shilin - the largest on the occupied territory, and a place where, the youth generally gathers.
of Chiang Kai-shek's Memorial
In Taypey surely should visit Chiang Kai-shek's constructed in honor of the first president of Taiwan the Memorial hall. Here books and Chiang Kai-shek's things are submitted. The territory of a complex covers 25000 sq.m therefore going on excursion, put on convenient footwear and stock up with water. The key concept of design of a memorial includes three values: 1 expression of spirit of the Chinese culture, 2 - creation of new style, 3 - use of modern architectural technologies. Use in appearance of a memorial of white and blue flowers symbolizes freedom and equality.
of Taypy 101
the highest building in the world up to 2010. The skyscraper consists from 101 land and five underground floors. Symbolizes evolution of technologies and Asian tradition.
Surely rise by an observation deck on the 89th floor, and it is desirable when will darken is an improbable and gripping show. All city clearly. In a skyscraper are located, including clubs and restaurants, large shopping center where the majority of world brands is presented.
Is remarkable what exactly in this skyscraper is the fastest in the world the elevator. We noted time and reached the 89th floor in 37 seconds. The elevator is included in the Guinness Book of Records. Many surprises that on the island where typhoons often storm, risked to build such building. High technologies, misters! Danger of a collapse at a hurricane or an earthquake reduces a huge 660-ton sphere pendulum (Taiwanese lovingly calls it baby a damper), the placed between 87 and 91 floors. According to engineers, the tower will be able to sustain an earthquake of such force what happens in this district of times in 2500. Right there it is possible to buy numerous souvenirs in the form of the tower or демпфера.
Илань
Если city bustle and a roar of uncountable scooters and cars not absolutely that you appreciate on vacation, go to northeast part of the island - to the city of Ilan where you are simply obliged to visit the well-known fish market Nanning. From Taipei to Ilan only about 90 minutes of a driving by bus. The fish market is in twenty minutes of a driving from the downtown.
you will be simply struck with a variety of production presented there, and reasonable prices for it. Right there in the market it is possible to have a dinner in one of numerous cafes where cook everything incredibly well that you chose on a show-window or in an aquarium.
Fans of fauna also should become interested surely in walk on the boat across the Pacific Ocean, and, maybe, you, as well as me, will carry, and you will see the dolphins frolicing literally at distance of 7 meters from you.
Also, being in Ilana, surely take excursion to King Car Whisky Distillery - plant of whisky of a premium class of KAVALAN. Here you will be in detail told and will show as well as of what do whisky, and it is possible to taste it and to buy souvenirs.
Still here can visit the National center of traditional arts in which territory there is a country house of Futay of Dongshan where it is possible to stop for the night. It is very interesting historical cultural complex in which territory there is a pond, small rivers and arbors. In the evenings here simply improbable calm and good fortune, transfers Day.Az with reference to Trend .
