＊這是優質頻道，希望大家多關照，請幫忙分享出去＊ This episode is like a complete travel TV show with all the elements in it!
I like Alan's commentary, he did a great job and knows more than me, he can indeed stay in Taiwan as a tour guide!
Brandi has a great eye for art and notices every detail of the temple every time!
Thank you for promoting Tamsui, the introduction is great, the editing is also great, thank you very much for your efforts! Amazing job! 👍🥰👏
Wow thank you very much!! Comments like yours mean a lot to us and really keep us going!! :D
@@IfWeGoTo It is my honor, thanks to you too for your kind words! Happy travels! 👍🥰🙏
I often go to Tamsui by bicycle, it is one of my favorite places in Taipei. 😊
Oh that sounds lovely!!! It is super beautiful!! Do you think there are any good spots we missed??
@@IfWeGoToIn addition to the old block of Tamsui City, go north along the north coast all the way to the east, along the road you can reach Repulse Bay, Baisha Bay, Laomei, Shimen Cave, Jinshan, Wanli, Yehliu, Dawulun, Keelung Port.
There are quite a few large and small scenic spots along the road, as well as famous local snacks and some seasonal activities. For example, special geographical terrain, the only remaining fishing method in the world, temples dedicated to loyal dogs, temples made of shells, flying umbrellas, kite festivals, abundant crabs in autumn, etc.
Traveling in Taiwan, the transportation is very convenient, but I recommend bicycles or motorcycles the most. When you see the scenery you like, you can stop and enjoy it if you want. The only difficulty is the climate in Taiwan. In addition to being hot and rainy, you may often get wet from the rain when riding a bicycle, which will spoil your mood, hahaha.😂
Ohh wow! We missed a lot!! Thank you so much for sharing all of this!!
We will be sure to pack some ponchos when we revisit! hahaha
Thanks guide for us to see beautiful places
Thanks for watching!!
Tamsui is one of my favorite parts of the city! Quick tip: the most common pronunciation sounds like "dahn-shway", which is how the majority of Mandarin speakers would say it. The Mandarin transliteration is Danshui and is a better indication of the modern pronunciation; Tamsui is based on the previous transliteration style but both are the same word, meaning "fresh water".
By the way, just wanted to call out again that your B-roll is SO good. You have a wonderful eye for cool subjects and framing, and you're able to make it look artistic and vibey but not overly try-hard and artificial. Your little transitional montages manage to really convey the whole feel and energy of a place in just a few brief shots, which isn't easy. I know you're still working through the audio (which is totally understandable) but your video is already punching way above your weight. Keep it up guys, you're doing awesome!
Also I died at Alan's uh colorful Subway joke 😂 Gotta keep getting Alan to come out of his shell, he is lowkey hilarious when he gets sassy and spicy.
Thank you for the tips!! We definitely pronounce things wrong - allll of the time! lol. So we appreciate you taking the time to point it out so we can try to fix it! :D
Also thank you!!! Filming B-roll is my favorite so that makes me very happy to hear you enjoy it!! We're hoping to upgrade our camera soon here too - ours is a bit old and shaky!! lo.. And I have a new cord sitting in my online shopping cart! I'm very bummed the cord we had has made the audio sound so weird and we filmed the whole Taiwan series with it. 🥲 There's always the next one I suppose!
I definitely should include more of Alan's jokes! He is just FULL of them! lol
Thanks again!!
先按讚
Thank you!!
I really enjoy your visit and introduction of Tamsui as I used to live for 6 years, my favorite vlog of yours . And I surely like the other vlogs for Taipei, Taiwan, where I grew up for have lived for my entire life.
Wow!! It must have been great to live there! It’s very beautiful! Do you think we missed any cool spots??
I hope you enjoy them!! We tried to cover Taipei very well because we noticed not a lot of information about it is on RUclips!
I hope you get to see some US cities!! They are very big, but unique and many have great food and sights! Where do you live now if not tamsui??
There’s an old little Presbyterian church in that street and I love it
Oh I don't think we saw that!!
I really like your videos, I wish you a happy trip in Taiwan❤
好用心拍攝的影片 ✨✨
Thank you very much!!
Can't believe you walked all the way from Hongshulin to the fisherman's wharf. That is super far! Glad you liked it.
Hahaha it was a bit of a trek! We definitely took the LRT back!! lol
Another excellent video! Enjoy very much!
Thank you! Cheers!
A wonderful Tamsui guide tour.
Thank you very much!!
The joke of subway will make Brandi's mom laugh out loud for a quarter of time😏!
Your conversations are so delightful, what a lovely couple❤
22:03 what a brilliant instant answer, all guys should learn from you, Alan😆
For a long time, I didn't like to visit Tamsui, it's too commercial. Yet, the places that you have explored makes it interesting to me again 😃
Hahahah I try to make him keep it G rated... but he just can't help himself!! lol
I think being a port city its natural for it to be a bit commercial, but there is a lot of charm too!
Thanks again for watching and commenting, it means a lot to us! :D
@@IfWeGoToa sandwich of a foot long, definitely G rating, baby 😆
Oh I laughed. 😂😂😂
great introduction for tamsui. Love taiwan!
Thank you!! And us too, what an amazing little country!
I really like the details of your taste, plants and flowers, unknown alleys, ancient buildings, historical feelings, and sharing of local stories... so good... great.
Thank you so much!:D
I must say Alan’s knowledge of these places he took us on around Taipei is second to none. He did the research and absorbed it, and put it in plain English for us to gain more insight into the history and events. I also learned from watching every video Brandi and Alan uploaded. They should apply for future ambassador positions if they ever get tired of filming.
Ahh thank you! Alan is extremely intelligent when it comes to being able to research and retain information! He is perfect for something like this.
Also SO happy to hear that you have been able to learn from the videos - that is amazing to hear! :D
That would be very cool to work as ambassadors or in tourism!! Maybe one day! hahaha
Ugh so proud of you and this amazing life!! One of these days I’ll meet you somewhere (this is Sarah)
Thank you!!! And YES!! That would be amazing!!!
I really enjoy watching every single episode of your video, so informative and makes me feel like that I am traveling with you both:) please keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!! So happy to hear you have enjoyed them!! And that's exactly what we are hoping for - to make people feel along with us!! :D
Love all your videos😄
Thank you so much!!
I like this ep very much, very easy going, very local. That old temple with colorful exterior is amazingly designed and truly beautiful. Thank you so much for sharing.
Thank you!! So happy you enjoyed it! Tamsui was really beautiful!!
Amazing!
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job!
Thank you! Cheers!
Very welcome!!
Thank you! Cheers!
I love Tamsui 😊
Its a great neighborhood!!
I like your video. Both of you do a lot of researches for Tamsui. Amazing. very good video.
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed it! :D
Subscribed! I love your fresh perspectives on travel. I love the exploration and discovery!
Ahh thank you so much!! Happy to have you join along!
welcome to Taiwan bro and sis, enjoy your journey well, visit a lot nature places of Taiwan and eat much local foods, 歡迎到台灣!
Thank you very much! We loved our visit to Taiwan!!
Love you both really pro on journey vlog!
Thank you so much!! :D
哇！好專業的介紹 棒棒
谢谢你！！
Thank you for the video. We plan to visit Taiwan and your videos are amazing. Alan is a awesome historical tour guide. The facts he pulls up is really interesting out of the blue facts.
Thank you for watching!! So happy to hear that you have enjoyed them!!
Aland is great to have along on the journey! He remembers things so well!
The milk tea sold on the streets of Taiwan can usually adjust the sweetness and the proportion of ice cubes. The sweetness is usually divided into 3, 5, 7, full sugar, and 4 levels. The number of ice cubes is divided into no ice, a small amount of ice cubes, and a lot of ice cubes.😘
Thank you for your tips!! It is very helpful!! 😃
@@IfWeGoTo This 100%. Half-sweet and half-ice is the pro gamer move for boba and other Taiwanese drinks...back in the states, my biggest tell for whether a boba shop is going to be authentically Taiwanese is whether they allow those adjustments!
We will give the half/half version a try next time! That sounds like the perfect amount of sweetness!
@@IfWeGoTo My usual choice is sweetness 5 (5 分) / less ice（少冰）, different stores still have a little difference🥰😘
祝福 平安健康 事事順心 旅遊愉悅.
謝謝 深入介紹淡水的歷史文物＆美麗景色＆美食小吃 讚......
謝謝您的推薦！
This is the first Tamsui vlog that I've seen here in yt. I'm going to follow this itinerary for my trip in March. :)
We did notice many of Taipei's districts weren't covered and aimed to see as much of the city as possible!! Glad to hear you found it and it will help build your itinerary!!
Thank you for watching and commenting! :)
Happy and safe travels!!
hahaha love the subway exchange 🤣
Hahaha I am glad we left it in anyways then!! Maybe made it PG though hahaha
great English tour-guide ever !
Ahh thank you!! Glad it was helpful!
ขอให้คุณทั้งสองกินเที่ยวมีแต่ความสุขตลอดการเดินทาง
จากไทยแลนด์
ขอบคุณมาก!! 🙏
Love the way you stay in Taiwan for a relatively long time and explore so many parts of Taipei. I've been to 58 countries, but for many countries I just stayed there one or two days. (But I stayed in Seattle one month and Boston two months, both lovely cities.) Oh and it's really nice walking along the river in Tamsui. Maybe it can be called Love River Bank haha, along with Love Lane and Lover's Bridge.
Wow! 58 countries is a lot!! Did you have any favorites??
There are definitely pros and cons to shorter and longer visits! But it is nice to really get to know a place!!
That’s a good idea!! I think that would be cute if they made that change! 🥰
@@IfWeGoTo I have favorite tourist attractions, such as Niagara Falls, Iguazu Falls, Jokulsarlon Glacier Lake, the Matterhorn, Paine, Petra and Cappadocia. Favorite cities: Seattle, Paris, Rio and Tokyo. As a traveler, I don't have a favorite country. But personally I love Japan most, and the USA is my second favorite. It has something to do with Hollywood movies and other reasons though😃 Oh, I think you're from the USA, right?
It is definitely hard to pick out favorites!! Japan is awesome and the US is massive and has so much to offer!!
And yes! We are both from California, though we have not lived there for more than 7 years now!
@@IfWeGoTo我一直以為你們是來自於澳洲，看來是我記錯了
@@AIRJASON2002 我重看也以為是澳洲XD 後來發現是美國沒錯。他們拍的第一支台灣影片裡有豪大大雞排，他們說在澳洲吃過，我乍看就誤以為他們是澳洲人。口音是像美國沒錯，沒有澳洲腔
Another view when the weather is good ,(+ ride bike)you should go again when you have time🥰
Oh we heard there is a super long bike ride along the Tamsui river!! We would love to do that one day!
That mangrove walk is one of my favorite places in Taipei. I just love crab, bird, and mudskipper watching in the mangroves. I could do it for hours. I don't think I've ever arrived at the Tamsui MRT station on the MRT. I always walked to Tamsui through the mangroves. Too bad it was raining. The view across the river is very beautiful. I also love the White Customs Building. There is a giant hole in the backyard of that building from the French bombing Tamsui.
It is so pretty!! Next time we visit we will need to keep an eye out for the mudskippers!
It was worth the walk through the mangroves for sure!
It was still very beautiful but we will need to visit again one day to take in the full view!
We also did not know about the hole in the customs building!!! That would be interesting to see!
🇹🇼🇹🇼🇹🇼
Thank you!! Always looking forward to your comment!! hahaha
@@IfWeGoTo haha just trying to help with the analytics :)
@@1peruvianguy hahah it is much appreciated! Thank you!
@@IfWeGoTo xie xie 🙏
Are you going back to the outlying islands of Taiwan?
Xiaoliuqiu is a coral island, rich in turtles and leisurely scenery.
Matsu Island is a place rich in military and natural scenery, and there is also a sea bath with blue tears, which is worth exploring.
Kinmen Island is the hometown of sorghum wine, with a strong battlefield atmosphere, rich ecology and the hometown of waterfowl.
Hello!! Yes, we visited a few different areas during our visit to Taiwan!! We did get to see Xiaoliuqiu and Cijin islands!
Would love to see even more one day, they are so beautiful!
看你們的影片非常舒服，謝謝你們介紹台灣❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
謝謝你！！
很優質很細膩的拍攝。喜歡你們❤好天氣的淡水夕陽非常非常漂亮 哦😊
非常感謝！很高興你喜歡它！
有一天我們需要再次訪問看日落！
喜歡👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
謝謝你！！
I've been watching your Taiwan vlogs recently as my reference for our Nov trip. Learned a lot, but I gotta say, bro is giving me Bryce Loski from the movie, Flipped. haha Kidding aside, keep doing what you're doing. 😉
Ahh that is awesome! Glad to hear you've learned a lot and hoping you have a great trip!!
Hahaha, I'm sure he would be falttered! Most people say he looks like Ansel Elgort!
Thank you!
Enjoyed your videos and chill vibes! Enjoy your stay in Taiwan! Just wanted to point out the port of Kaohsiung is actually the largest in Taiwan.
Thank you so much, we loved our visit to Taiwan!
Ohhh thanks for pointing that out!! We must have gotten it wrong or maybe misunderstood!!
In July and August, Taipei haves some fireworks shows in 大稻埕 and 漁人碼頭. These fireworks shows is very wonderful about I watched in last year at 漁人碼頭. I can promise,you never regret about watched these fireworks shows.
因為我英文不是特別好，也很久沒使用了，所以沒辦法做到全部用英文解釋😢。可能句子中也會有些文法的錯誤，但還是想和你們（兩位）說說這個資訊，再請英文能力不錯的各位網友修正我說的話，謝謝你們！
Oh that would be amazing to see them! Thank you for sharing!! Unfortunately we left back in May (We are a bit backlogged on videos!) but we definitely plan to visit again one day!
你的英语很棒，别担心！ :D
另一方面，我们的中文……我们依赖翻译。哈哈
我住淡水超過20年，我都不知道淡水有一個老英國殼牌工廠舊趾！！！！！
哦哇！住在一個多麼酷的社區啊！我很高興我們可以帶您參觀老殼牌石油工廠！
你知道我們錯過了哪些下次應該去的好地方嗎？
IfWeGoTo 你們好~ summer is the production season, please don't miss Taiwan's fruits - pineapple, dragon fruit, mango, lychee, watermelon, banana, guava..........👍👍👍
Unfortunately we left Taipei in May 😭 but we’d love to visit another summer, all of those fruits sound amazing!!!
@@IfWeGoTo What a pity~~Taiwan is the "Kingdom of Fruits".☺☺
@@610liao4 next time we’ll try to plan our visit in the summer!!
@@IfWeGoTo May is good. July is too hot. You are welcome~~
祝福你們~世界旅遊平安~🙏🙏🙏
@@IfWeGoTo But it's hot and humid in the summer in Taiwan. Please take this into consideration. Or you can add more indoor activities, water activities and mountain areas into your travel plan. If hot weather is OK for you, then it'd be fine. It rains less in the summer in Taipei, just some afternoon thunderstorms sometimes.
MY HOMETOWN!!!!!!
Your videos are so high quality and fun, I really enjoyed watching them and see what you guys can have fun in my country, did you plan to go to other places in Taiwan or just stayed in Taipei?
Thank you very much!! So happy to hear you’ve been enjoying them! Tamsui was so much fun!
When visiting Taipei we didn’t find a lot of information about it online so we decided to do a really thorough series on it! I believe we have 2-3 more videos planned on it.
But we also have videos from Hualien, Kaohsiung, Xiaoliuqiu, and Tainan planned too!
6:41 That's the new bridge "Danjiang Bridge" which connects Ba-li(八里) and Tamsui I suppose. Taipei port is a bit further to the west (but just near by)
Ohh thank you!!
Alan mentioned a foot-long Subway sandwich, and I can’t help by having embarrassing thoughts about this “romantic spot” ❤ after Brandi’s response. As always, this video is professionally produced and directed.
Hahaha it was too funny to omit...
Thank you, so happy you enjoyed it!
I was in Tamshui in 2019. I loved it there but I didn't get to see as many places as you both have, it was raining quite heavily so that dampened the trip.
I think it probably rained all the time there.
But I love Tam Shui and would go back there one day for a longer stay.
Aww such a bummer to hear you had bad weather during your visit. But that just means you can visit again one day and see even more!!
Thanks for watching!
Super interesting video. I'd expect to see more Chinese culture than Japanese in Taiwan. We just found you guys and really like the vibe of your videos.
Thank you!! It is definitely a mix of cultures in Taiwan! Japan just happens to be one of the more recent so they have quite a lot there!
Thank you guys!! I see you make videos as well, I added you on IG - hope we can connect! We love meeting fellow travelers!
❤Taiwan, China 🇨🇳🇨🇳🇨🇳
I am in Tamsui now for the last three weeks 😂. I find that the ideal month to come to visit Taiwan is in November. June, July, and August are just too hot, it’s insane.
Oh yeah I have heard it is very hot this time of year!! We visited in April/May and it was quite nice!!
19:38 true, and I think most Spanish and Dutch people today don't even know they had little colonies in Taiwan, which I find a bit amusing
They probably don't! They had so many little colonies around Asia.. and the world really! It was very interesting to learn about as we got to know Taiwan's history better and better though!
看了你們那麼多yt，覺得怎麼那麼奇怪，還沒到淡水，結果來了！😂👍
到達台北後，我們意識到 RUclips 上沒有太多關於它的信息 - 所以我們盡力盡可能地報導它！淡水是一個值得探索的很棒的社區！在前往其他城市之前，我們還有來自台北的更多！ :D
@@IfWeGoTo 謝謝你們喜歡台灣，影片真的很棒！
So cool to be back in Tamsui , got to be my Sunday hangout place :-)
Hmm I was there March 2020 , not a visitor in sight :-) All locals .
Subway and footlong cracked me up :-)
It seems like the perfect spot for it!!
Did you used to live in Taiwan??
Glad you appreciated the joke as much as we did! hahahah
@@IfWeGoTo Plenty nice spots in Taiwan .
I arrived in Taiwan 5th March 2020 , South Africa went into lockdown 17th ?
No way home :-)
What to do ? Make the best of it :-)
Was supposed to be there for the World Orchid show , cancelled 2 weeks before my flight .
So go see some friends , see the country , visit Vietnam and fly back from Taiwan , some plan .
About a month all in :-)
With help from our Embassy , I got a flight home , via Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur 21 st June , in a nice quarantine here for 14 days and my birthday :-)
Was staying with a friend in Miaoli County near Taichung , his Mom had cancer , thought I might be a covid risk , so moved out , a good move . Left my big bag with him travelled with carry on .
Kaohsiung was cool , stayed right next to the Love River , nice whale .
Did an early trip to the harbour , very cool art work and coast guard boats , could even interact with the crew :-)
Going back into town , I heard crackers go off , music to my ears .
One huge religious parade . I found a spot just after midday , walked home around 6 pm .
Apparently , for some , outside my room was the end of the road for some , last arrivals after 7 pm !
Epic .
Enough detail :-) Did a round trip on the slow train and stopped off where I wanted .
yes , the country is very nice .
The people made it special , I have a long list :-)
Have had my share of travels , the Taiwanese people stand out .
Could write a book , short one .
Will be back next Feb for the show I missed , see some new places , visit old haunts .
Good travels .
引人入勝的影片
謝謝你！！
❤
Thank you!!
If you had walked a little further there's a walkway and a nice beach called Shalun Beach
Oh that would have been nice to see! Next time!!
I dropped when Alan talked dirty , soooo funny 😆
He just can’t help himself but to make dirty jokes at every opportunity he gets!! 😂
21:16 "I am not putting that in the video"
*it be in the video* 🤣🤣 did Alan do some last minute edits before you guys uploaded? 😆
Hahahaha, it was too funny to omit!
Mygoto vlog. Used it for beitou
Ahh thank you! So happy you’ve been able to use them!! 🤗
😎❤️🇹🇼‼️
Thank you!
Agai is actuall come from Japan idea.
It was so delicious too!!
Nice to see Baby Driver has gotten out of the life of crime and is now doing travel videos!
Hahahahah this actually made me laugh out loud!!
I like your video has Chinese subtitles which I can really understand not random translation😂
I'm so happy that they are easy to understand!!
Fort Santo Domingo:
The Spanish built it.
The Dutch took it.
The British renovated it.
Thank you for sharing this!! We couldn't quite figure out why they had the British stuff, but now that makes sense! :)
Thats pity, sunset in tamsui is very famous and romantic
Oh the weather was a bit gloomy that day!! It was still very beautiful though!!
Hahaha. The Subway comments. 😂😂
He just can't help himself but to make an inappropriate and/or dad joke every change he gets. 😂
Love the sex jokes keep’em coming 😂
Whatcha mean?! They’re just subway jokes!! 😂 😉
ha! Agei is Japanese dish, very funny😁
That explains the flavor!! It was so good! 😋
@@IfWeGoTo and, Agei is japanese pronunciation😅
Well it was a pleasure to eat!!
@@IfWeGoTo actually, Agei is not good enough for local, just for tourists🤪
how is weather
When we visited it was chilly!! But I’ve heard Taiwan is hot in the summer!
Which month visited
So sorry I just saw this! We visited Tamsui in Late March or early April I believe!
It's pronounced Duhn(like done) - shu(like shoe) - eh (like where) so: "done shoe where"
Ohh thank you!! We definitely pronounced it wrong!! ahhaha
台灣不只有荷蘭歷史還有當時全台灣跟法國人交戰歷史在基隆。中法戰爭 台灣位於位子當時非常多國家像佔領港口，法國也像跟日本中國貿易建立據點攻擊當時基隆位子。
台灣有著極其複雜的歷史--我們也不知道與法國的關係！感謝你的分享！
Tam-sui should be pronounced like "Dan-sweat". There are no perfect translation. But "Dan-sweat" is actually more closely to Chinese pronunciation.
Thank you for the correct pronunciation!! We get things wrong allll of the time! hahaha. So we appreciate you taking the time to teach us so we get it right next time!
@@IfWeGoTo
You are welcome.
People of taiwan are very happy because it is liberal, that's what i like about borderless countries.👏👏👏👏👏
It is really fantastic!!
which date you when ?cherry blossom ?🤭
In Taiwan we saw them from early to mid March! I think we went March 3 and 17 to Yangmingshan. It varies annually though because it depends on temperature and stuff. :)
@@IfWeGoTo great! Thanks so much..planning to go on 11 to 14 March 2025 follow by Tokyo thereafter..as Sakura blossom in Tokyo 2024 was very much disrupted by Climate change..hope to take a glimpse for the very least at Tamsui as the weather there tends to be warmer which is easier for sakura to bloom. :)
Anytime!! I think the climate in Taiwan is a bit more stable given its location. We saw the Sakura this year in Tokyo and they came so late we hardly to extend our stay!
Hopefully you catch them in Taiwan!! If you’re near Taipei I cannot recommend a trip up to Yangmingshan enough!
Agei is actually Japanese haha.
I guess that makes sense as to why it tasted like Japanese food!! lol
Don Sway
That is a great way to remember how to pronounce it!
Loved your video. Taiwan is definitely a foodie's delight. The food on the street, from stalls, or restaurants were just amazing, enough to bring out the oohs and aahs.
Thank you so much! Agreed, Taiwan has some seriously incredible food!!
你們沒有介紹跟淡水關係最深的來自加拿大的宣教士馬偕博士 , 他一生奉獻在台灣的醫療. 教育和宣教 , 成為台灣女婿 , 死後葬在台灣 , 你們經過他的雕像和他建立的學校 , 卻沒有介紹他 ..............
哦，我們不知道！感謝您指出了這一點！
Your eye make up is lovely, really accentuates your eyes. Not you Alan, sorry.
Hahhaha thank you!! :D
說話聲音有點小聲
非常抱歉，我們遇到了一些音頻問題！
The Chinese (Ming dynasty) kicked Dutch out then the Chinese (Chin dynasty) concurred it then the Japanese occupied it during WW II then the Chinese (ROC) kicked the Japanese out…..
Ming was overthrown by the Manchus in 1644, but Koxinga came in 1662.
Koxinga was a Ming royalist, but he did not represent Ming.
Koxinga was actually born in Japan to a Japanese mother.
CCP, KMT, and Japanese all use Koxinga for propaganda from a different POV.
Also, Koxinga was viewed differently among the European, aboriginals, and the early immigrants from China.
btw. After Koxinga kicked out the Dutch in Tanan area(Tayoan), the Dutch did not leave, but stayed in Tamsui and coexist with Kingdom of Tungning for 4 years. This part was rarely mentioned.
Japan did not occupy Taiwan. Taiwan became part of Japan in 1895 through a treaty. ROC/China even had a Chinese consulate in Taihoku/Taipei in 1930s before WWII began. Use keywords, such as "Formosa 1930, Taihoku...etc." to search 1930s Taiwan, you will see a different world which was hidden because of the old KMT regime that wanted to promote Taiwan as "True China", but Taiwan had a total different culture back then.
ROC did not kick out Japanese. It was USA that did the decision. KMT was shipped by the US navy in 1945 to accept Japan's surrender, but used the chance to seize Taiwan. Officially, Japan gave up Taiwan in 1952 after the Peace Treaty was signed in 1951, but did not say Taiwan was given to ROC. However ROC went into exile in 1949 to Taiwan.
