And that’s it for our visit to Taipei! We hope you enjoyed this video and that you got a few of idea of things to do, see, and most importantly, eat on your next visit. As always, if you have any other suggestions of fun things to do around Taipei, we invite you to share them with travellers in the comments below. Wishing you happy travels and until next time!

Welcome back to Taiwan!!🌷🌹🇹🇼🌸🌺
Gyönyörű hely! A közbiztonság nagyon jó.Nagyon kedves és barátságos emberek.A tömegközlekedés nagyon olcsó és jó.Az ételek nem annyira az én ízvilágom,de azért megtaláltam a kedvemre valót is. Mindenkinek csak ajánlani tudom! Biztos hogy vissza megyünk még!! :) Tisztaság van!!!
Just travelled to Taiwan and stayed 9 days there, the people there were very polite and nice. I got help from super kind 7-11 staff for booking discounted express tickets. Young kids proactively helped me to get my toasts that were stuck in a strange toast machine. My wife and I were always advised not to order too many to finish in restaurants. Frankly speaking, the eco-centric city layout and amount of city green lung in their cities are also very impressive. Certainly will visit Taiwan again!
I’m Half Taiwanese, half german and I miss Taiwan so much, watching this video just makes me very happy.
Hope you had a good time there!
Thank you! 😃
Taiwan is a dynamic country, good for young people.
I typed in ‘Taiwan Travel Guide’ and look who came up! I’ve saved it to watch later! I go next week and think this will be really useful!! :D
That is so exciting to hear you'll be visiting Taiwan soon! You're going to love the street food.
I swear I could visit Taipei 101 every day and never get sick of it, love this city so much for it's great food and incredibly friendly atmosphere :)
I hear you. It is an incredible city and so underrated in relation to other ones in Asia.
Truly :)
The other fascinating thing about Taiwan, especially in Taipei and other main cities ,is that there are lots of small, beautiful shops in the alleys. A lot of young generations start their own business by using taiwan's local ingredients to make really natural products likes soaps, cosmetics, honey.......etc, and also lots of great designers come up with really nice clothes!! Some of them might be a little pricey but they totally worth it! This industry is really thriving these couple of years and really shows a different aspect of Taiwan, since most of the foreigners already know Taiwan as a country of food.If you get to come to 松山文創園區or華山文創園區, you'll know what I'm saying, there are always lots of exhibitions, fairs to visite.
I highly recommend to go to eslite in 松山文創, many small companies I said earlier have their products inside, you can see them at one time
I hope that you enjoyed our Taipei travel guide and that it gave you some ideas of things to do and local foods to eat while visiting. We also have a tips video where we discuss the cost of transportation, accommodations, must eat foods, free things to do and attractions worth paying for in our tips video --> ruclips.net/video/Rc4pMXeJBYw/видео.html
Samuel and Audrey - Travel and Food Videos Taiwan is a very boring country
Thank you for this lovely video. I'm really missing Taipei. Luckily I'll be there next month!
@S N I P E R stfu
China is the enemy, not Taiwan.. I would rather have an ally that hates China than ally myself with China
You guys sound like a fun couple to travel with!
@S N I P E R TAIWAN IS NOT CHINA, dumbass
if you believe in One-China Policy, if you believe that Hong Kong and Taiwan are part of China and will become one with China in the future, then you yourself are supporting China's cause.. you yourself are supporting your sworn enemy
Just last year we took our first trip to Taiwan - we fell in love with Taipei & Taiwan, and are currently planning our next trip... We went in October, and like you found it drizzled practically every day we were in Taipei - so we googled it, and learned that it rains 180 days a year in Taipei!!! On the upside, how easy was it to get umbrellas & ponchos in Taipei! Not to mention how good peoples' umbrella etiquette is! Really enjoyed reliving our travels through your vlogs!
Thank you! That is really cool to hear. We'd love to go back again as well. It kind of reminds me of Vancouver with the rain and drizzle. I grew up on Vancouver Island so it sure rained a lot.
Taipei looks absolutely beautiful and the food looked fantastic as well! Loved this video. Thank you!
Thank you! It is a true foodie city and it has a lot more to offer travelers who visit. We highly recommend a visit.
Wow that Taipei 101 is huge. Great country to visit and some great food. Wonderful video as always
Thank you! It is one of the coolest buildings we've ever visited. We really enjoyed our time in Taipei :)

I just want to say that you guys did a great job with this video. Good selection and explanations. I have been to these places and eaten these foods....thanks for reminding me about the mango shaved ice! Wow, bringing back some good memories.
Thank you very much! We absolutely loved visiting Taipei. We feel it it the most underrated big city to visit in Asia. The food and attractions are simply awesome :)
Hey:) im Michael, a travel addict from germany. I discovered East and south east asia (Korea, Japan, Thailand...) and now I looked for an interesting place that is not flooded with western tourist such as Thailand and is worth to visit. So Taiwan came into my mind but I wasn't sure if its worth it to travel there but this video convinced me that my decision to go to Taiwan was a good one. Now I'm looking forward to see Taipeh in the beginning of February :)
Thanks Michael! That is exciting to hear you'll be visiting soon. I do think Taipei is one of the most underrated big cities in Asia.

Thanks Jordan! Have a great trip!
You are a lucky guy. to have that wonderful, adventurous, and beautiful lady as your travel buddy.
Can't argue with that :)
Thank you Samuel and Audrey. Nicely done and very informative. I'll be stopping over inTaipei on my way to Chiang Mai where I teach. I was here in 1975 so I imagine it is a different city. Certainly will visit and eat at the places you recommended.
Thank you! That is exciting to hear you'll be retracing your steps. Chiang Mai has changed a lot in the last 10 years so you will notice it is much busier.
Thank you! I'm in Taipei now so I'll definitely be checking some of these out. Humidity today is around 80% so I've been hunting for air conditioned shops today. Off to Shilin Night market shortly
Thanks! That is really cool. Hope you have a great time and I we totally understand about the humidity.
Thanks Sam and Audrey for the video. Since Covid-19 has us locked down for travel, I appreciate the travel Volg of Taipei Its a destination of mine, once we are free to travel. Guess its Vicarious Living till then!
Thanks guys
Thank you very much Ed! We can totally relate these days. Hope it is safe enough to travel again soon.
I can't wait for the next one!
Thank you!
Thank you!
