Taipei is a really nice city. It's history and culture is amazing. So much national pride here. Grand monuments for their founding fathers it's so cool. Their Taipei 101 tower is impressive. Worlds fastest elevator and all with amazing views.
Unlike HK there is little foreign presence that i've seen and they don't speak any English unless you work for a brand name store or a hotel. It is very hard to get around in the city without my iPhone to show pictures of where i want to go lol. I know a few phrases in Mandarin but it doesn't help haha. They do have this really nice area that has many small boutique shops that remind me of Queen and King West. But cheaper and confined to a few blocks so very nice to walk.
All in all i would visit again but like KL there are other places i would like to visit before coming back.
The photos are of the monumnets and this park we went to so i'm not going to post anything....maybe boring for you guys haha. But John did take this cool panoramic picture of me that called "The seven Tsun's" haha. have a look http://photosynth.net/view.aspx?cid=4b3aa8b7-2bec-4e9e-9ae4-6d74b984de4e
