Taiwan is a very advanced island nation Obvious Li..



It is famous for great cuisine..



Much like Korea and Japan, it has very good infrastructure like a good mrt in Taipei and a smaller one Kaohsiung..



If you go be sure to visit Sun Moon Lake, it is beautiful..



We are thinking about going back to Taiwan in 2016.

They get their fair share of natural disasters, mostly earthquakes.

their fair share of typhoons also



They can get very strong in that part of the world .... especially south of China in Filippines area, then work their way north while loosing a bit of power but still strong



My uncle was in Taipei when that big quake hit a few years ago ... We rode out a 270 K (before it hit land) typhoon in Manila

It's a shitty, smoggy little island. If you like polluted, aesthetic eyesores filled with plastic, hyper consumer robots then be my guest. The girls are as vacuous as Fashionista. I hope a 9.5 earthquake sends that useless piece of real estate into the ocean.

I called my relatives in Taiwan on Christmas eve night our time which was Christmas day Taiwan time..



December 25 is also the anniversary of the constitution of the Republic of China..



It's not as an extensive a celebration as Chinese New Year.
