We're delighted to be back in Taiwan after our trip was abruptly cut short 4 years ago. We kick this series off starting in the capital Taipei City.
✨ PLACES WE VISITED IN THIS VLOG ✨
▸ Di Hua Street
The lunch spot maps.app.goo.g... and Ruli Tapioca Balls dessert shop are just opposite each other.
▸ Taipei Botanical Garden
We visited in spring and were able to catch the lotus flowers in bloom.
▸ Hongludi Nanshan Fude Temple
There is apparently a road that can take you to the very top temple so you don't have to walk all the steps up, but if you're physically able to, we recommend doing the walk/climb as when you get to the top and just before you enter the temple, it's quite a magical sight to encounter! We were able to easily get an Uber back down the mountain too.
✨ BONUS TAIWAN TRAVEL TIPS ✨
If you're visiting Taiwan, we highly recommend getting both your local SIM card and EasyCard when you arrive at the airport as it's efficient and cost effective too for tourists.
For local SIM cards, networks are all generally the same coverage-wise apparently but we went with Chunghwa Telecom (the biggest) and Far East One. The variation comes mostly with the duration of your plan. Exit into the arrivals hall in Taoyuan Airport and you'll see many counters that sell the SIMs.
The EasyCard will allow you to use Taipei's trains, buses, and other public transport services (you can buy it at Taoyuan Metro in Taipei's airport) as well as other metro stations and convenience stores around Taiwan.
