TAIPEI IS WITHOUT DOUBT THE BEST CAPITAL CITY THAT I HAVE EVER VISITED. EVERYONE THAT I HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH WAS MOST FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. THERE IS A VERY MODERN UNDERGROUND TRANSIT SYSTEM WHICH IS SPOTLESS, SMOOTH AND EFFICIENT. THE LOCAL PEOPLE SEEM TO BE PROUD OF IT TO THE EXTENT THAT EVEN IF SOMEONE DROPS ASH FROM A CIGARETTE, THIS IS FROWNED UPON -- WHICH IS EXACTLY AS IT SHOULD BE. EVERY TIME THAT I LOOKED AT A SIGN TO FIND MY WAY AROUND, SOMEONE ALWAYS STOPPED TO HELP ME. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER TAIPEI AND HOPE THAT THEY NEVER CHANGE IT. THIS IS REALLY SAYING SOMETHING FROM SOMEONE WHO COMES FROM A RURAL BACKGROUND AND HATES CITIES.

The vaunted National Palace Museum is best left alone alone unless you are up on your History of Chinese Art. It is recommended to stay up late, hungry and sober, to take advantage of the endless food stalls and courts, with cold Taiwanese beer and scrumptious Chinese food. The chopsticks they provide are so easy to use, a beginner need not be shy.

Taiwan is too expensive, in comparison to other Asian destinations. $40.00 US for a taxi downtown from the airport. $5.00 cup of coffee at the Sheraton Lai-Lai gives me a negative impression of Taipei. I will keep searching for reasonable prices in Taipei, as I must travel there on business.

I would definitely recommend a lovely japanese restaurant very moderately priced a 10 minute taxi ride from the hotel.The quality of the sushi/sashimi is excellent but beware of the sushi because they tend to overdose on the wasabi...Sorry but I only have the telephone number as I cannot read the chinese card: 2531-7786

It's not difficult to get a taxi in Taipei and I recommend the 'Pig in Tien Mu' on Tien Mu East Rd. as a great place to eat, drink, dance and speak English. Live bands every night from 9 o'clock at night and the the staff is exceptional!
