Welcome to Taipei
Taipei is changing and becoming increasingly tourist-friendly
with new attrac-tions recently opened and more planned
for the future. Our visitors tell us that they enjoy
the convenience of MRT, which is easy for foreigners
to use and matches the standards of similar systems
in Tokyo and European cities.
Taipei is an international city with
a flourishing social scene, modern, convenient facilities
and a welcoming tourist environment. To demonstrate
Taipei's diversity of natural and cultural features,
we have planned a series of activities themed around
four seasons: flowers, culture, culinary delicacies
and hot springs, which we hope that to provide different
experiences for
visitors.
As well, each month, there will be
representative tourist activities, twelve in all. These
are the Promenade and Bazaar for the New Year Party
in January, Taipei Lantern Festival in February, Taipei
Film Festival in March, the Birthday of Bao Sheng DaDi,
God of Medicine in April, Taipei Indigenous Peoples'
Cultural Festival in May, Taipei International Dragon
Boat Race Championships in June, Taipei Children's Art
Festival in July, Taipei Season for Chefs in August,
Confucius Ceremony in September, Taipei International
Hot Springs Festival in October, Taipei International
Travel Fair in November, and the Taipei New Year Party
in December.
We hope that these festivals and events
will help tourists learn more about our diverse culture
and artistic achievements and we look forward to welcoming
you ad our gusts.
