As the Turkish people, we are grateful to you for your help in the earthquake, thank you very much, beautiful people of Taiwan. Loving greetings from Turkey.
Nice to see Taiwan highlighted, and the show was great, but barely scratched the surface of what there is to do and see in this amazing country. The food, the beautiful natural and varied landscapes, and the people make Taiwan an island paradise.
Congratulations to you for this remarkable video from Taipei, Taiwan to shows these amazing places or Landmarks in great joy & peace 2023❤❤❤I wish you the BEST & good LUCK in peace 2023❤❤❤
As a tea-enthusiast i have to say that i could watch Aurora Chen for days just talking about and making tea. Everything about this is just incredibly beautiful. I wish her and all the people portrayed in this video all the best!
Taiwan is very beautiful and warmly and very safe country,I love my country and I am deeply proud of Taiwanese people. I hope this short video will allow more people to know and discover the beauty of Taiwan.
Amazing video. I love Taiwan, it is very safe to travel alone and budget friendly. I can say because i been there a year ago. i just shared my videos recently in my YT channel because i got bored while in quarantine.
@@Gian0199 It’s essentially an independent country, all but officially. China knows that they’re never going to get their hands on Taiwan; they just don’t want to admit it 🙂
Taiwan is not a city, it is a Country. it has more than 371 city, county, town...please educate your people in BBC and deliver a right message to the public!!!
17:28 "feeling of 'old wild west'..." interesting reference from a BBC reporter. Also interesting how she perceived that. It's a "special" show, with a select coverage, but it is nicely done.
Taiwan is a beautiful independent and democratic country. If you want to experience the "real China" then I suggest you visit this wonderful island. The writing is traditional Chinese and the characters have not lost their original beauty. The people are friendly and you can see real Chinese temples and treasures. Whilst some people on the mainland (West Taiwan) will rant and rave that Taiwan is part of the PRC and only 15 countries recognise Taiwan, it doesn't matter. They have their own government, currency, army, passports etc. In fact, many Taiwanese enjoy great travel options with Visas compared to the communists from across the Taiwanese Strait. For those of you interested in history, the KMT originally controlled all of China, Mao started a civil war which finished in 1949 and the KMT government (the original government of China) escaped to Taiwan. Taiwan makes the worlds best semi conductors and pineapples lol and the PRC can only copy rather than innovate. Give Taiwan a go - the REAL CHINA
Paul Cooper many of China’s autonomous provinces have their own flags, currency and local government, like Macau, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Taiwan like all provinces in China is represented in all of National Peoples Congress (NPC) meetings in Beijing (you can check this on the internet as well as from Taiwan News websites where Taiwan presented bills to Beijing central government to increase tourism and trade to Taiwan province. China is Taiwan’s biggest trade partner as of 2021. On May 22, 2020 the Taiwanese delegation to the NPC session with Chinese Premier Li Keqiang was represented by Huang Zhixian, head of Taiwan province delegation. Why would Taiwan be allowed to attend NPC meetings if it isn’t a province of China and why would Taiwan delegates attend if they didn’t consider themselves a province of China.
@@pohchan3535 It was a Chinese joke. Find someone who was bought by the interests of the CCP to be the representative of Taiwan. In fact, he does not represent any government unit in Taiwan.
The fleeing nationalists made up less than 10% of Taiwan’s population in 1949. Taiwan was unwillingly dragged into a conflict with the PRC as most of the population had nothing to do with the civil war and were inhabitants long before colonialism.
please can you tell me where you started to alishan and which destination I can find the platform you show at 00:12:17 ? I can't find it in any guide online.
A lot of the lanterns get recycled. There is some movement to promote environmentally friendly materials. Fire hazard is apparently more serious. Ppl there may have shortcomings, but are fairly progressive on legitimate environmental issues.
The history of Taiwan can be traced back 400 years ago when Dutch came to southern Taiwan in 1624 and later the Spaniards came to northern coast of Taiwan. Today most of the families in Taiwan has lived in Taiwan more than 3 centuries. It was USA that defeated Japan in the second world war and ROC was only mandated by Allies (General MacArthur ) to govern Taiwan. The vintage of Chiang-kai-shek fleeing China to Taiwan and their descendants only constitute 12 percent of the citizens currently living in Taiwan. The majority of the families in Taiwan had lived in Taiwan before Chiang- kai-shek and their followers fled to Taiwan.
