Taiwan has some of the best food in the world; even if you are a picky American like me you can find something delicious here that you will be sure to miss if you ever leave. Food is one of the main things that has brought me back to Taiwan time and time again. Here I will list my favorite Taiwan foods. Try not to drool too much on your screen or keyboard.
My Food Journey in Taiwan: To be honest, as a 19-year-old picky snot-nosed kid coming to Taiwan for the first time, I ate a lot of 7-11 hot dogs (which I still enjoy). During my first week, someone gave me stinky tofu and 1000-year-old egg which made me gag but somehow I was able to swallow. But I loved Taiwan fried rice, fried dumplings, and spring onion pancakes from the first try. It was only later that I began to acquire a taste for things like bento boxes (see above) and seafood which opened a new world for me. I am a picky eater success story and I enjoy almost all Taiwanese food that does not still have its head attached or resemble raw sewage in some way. If you are a new foreigner in Taiwan who is not used to the food, you can try out the things on this list first. I am sure there is something you will love. Also, I would like to note that lots of Taiwanese food is inspired by other countries like Japan and China, but no one really cares. This is food that is eaten in Taiwan. It is just like no one cares that pizza originally came from Italy.

Shimen Ancient Battlefield (aka Shimen Historic Battlefield Macacukes 石門古戰場) in Mudan Township of Pingtung is where local Paiwan indigenous people fought a Japanese invading force in the aftermath of the Mudan Incident. Here the Paiwan people were able to stall the Japanese advance but were ultimately defeated and agreed to stop attacking shipwrecked ships. This spot along the river played an important part in Taiwan's history and is also important for the local Paiwan people who still live there. Now you can enjoy the natural scenery, historical markers, and hiking trails nearby.
Background: In 1871, a ship from the Ryukyuan Kingdom was shipwrecked near Mudan Village, and 54 Ryukyu men were massacred by the local Paiwan aboriginals. Even though the Ryukyuan kingdom was independent, it asked for help from the Qing Dynasty, its main trading partner, to pacify the Taiwanese aboriginals. Later in 1872, Japan dethroned the King of the Ryukyuan Kingdom and asked that the Qing Dynasty be held responsible for the massacre. The Qing denied having control over that region of Taiwan, so Japan sent soldiers to avenge those massacred as part of the 1874 invasion of Taiwan. A war ensued, and Japan entered Taiwan at Sheliao (near Guishan) on the Hengchun Peninsula and was stopped for a while at Shimen. Shimen literally means stone gate, referring to the narrow canyon that the Sichong River runs through here. The Japanese army was eventually successful at moving past Shimen and burned all nearby Paiwan Villages. The villagers promised to stop attacking shipwrecked sailors and began flying the Japanese flag which they saw as a sign of peace, and which the Japanese saw as a claim of jurisdiction. In the end, 561 Japanese soldiers died from disease while only 12 were killed in battle. 89 Paiwan aboriginals were killed in battle. Japan then negotiated with China with the help of American and British advisors, and China recognized Japanese control of the Ryukyu Islands and made payment to Japan for peacekeeping in the area. The Japanese finally withdrew from Taiwan in December 1875. In the end, the battle helped Japan solidify its influence on Taiwan and the Ryukyu Islands, emboldening it later to take over Taiwan.

If you don't properly learn these sounds early on, chances are that it will mess up your Chinese down the road because you will be memorizing and practicing the right sounds. In this blog, we will point out commonly mispronounced Pinyin Sounds and teach you how to master the sounds of Chinese.

In the earliest times, Nangang was known as an industry hub for coal, brick-making, and tea farming. In order to ship goods from Neihu to Nangang rail station, at least two suspension bridges were made across the Keelung River.

The Luku Incident Memorial is a reflective arch statue in Shiding District of New Taipei that commemorates what is known as "the largest political event of the nation’s White Terror era." The incident involved two brothers who had started a communist party holdout in the mountains of Shiding. The resulting response, from the then martial law-era ROC government under then Dictator Chiang Kai-Shek, was thousands of police officers arresting hundreds of innocent people, with many of the people being falsely imprisoned and executed.
Historical Background: Two brothers, Chen Pen-chiang and Chen Tung-ho (陳通和), created an armed communist party holdout in the Luku village of Shiding District. They also organized a youth group consisting of underage villagers, however this group did not participate in any illicit activity. In response, on Dec. 28th, 1952, about 10,000 police officers and ROC armed soldiers raided the village over the space of four months, blocking off roads and arresting everyone while trying to remove the communists. Around 400 people in the surrounding areas were arrested, with 200 of those people being tortured and 35 killed. According to the Taipei Times: "Among the 200, 12 were not indicted or released for turning themselves in, while 98 were given prison sentences, 19 of whom were underage." Due to the terrible injustice dealt to the village and the surrounding people, the Luku Incident Memorial was erected in the year 2000. For more information on the incident, check out the articles written by the Taipei Times here andhere. You can also check out the Wikipedia article in Chinese here. Where to stay: High end: We have stayed at and recommend the Nangang Marriott (book on Booking.com here or Agoda here).

Houwan Beach in Kenting is a small beach near the Aquarium. It features a short yellow sandy beach, as well as clear water that is relatively warm year round. In addition, the beach has sunshine for most of the year. Popular activities include surfing, swimming, and sunbathing. It has everything you would want from a Kenting beach but it is smaller and there are fewer people than other beaches.
Background: Houwan is a small fishing town in Kenting after which the beach is named. The name literally means "back bay" in Chinese. Kenting was first settled by Chinese farmers during the Qing Dynasty. The word Kenting comes from two words that mean cultivate (ken3 墾) and strong man (丁 ding1). During that time, a group of strong men (or Zhuang Ding 壯丁) came from Guangdong, who were basically Chinese pioneers of the area to cultivate the land, hence the area was named Kenting for them. The area was considered to be made into a park during the Japanese occupation due to it being the only tropical location in the Japanese Empire, but was never officially created. Kenting National Park was established in 1984 as the first national park in Taiwan after WWII. Kenting became a major vacation spot, becoming a center for hostels and hotels for travelers. Kenting is considered by many to have the best beaches in Taiwan. This is because of its fine white sand and year-round warm temperatures and sunshine (it is in the tropical part of Taiwan after all). Usually, this beach is free of people and crowds even on weekends. Hours: 24/7 Price: Free When to go: Summer! It's when the water is warmest and the sun is hottest. However there will be more people in summer, and there could be Typhoons. Spring and Fall are also good times to go, as there will be less visitors and cooler temperatures. Winter is an okay time to go as well, it will be warmer than the rest of Taiwan and the water will still be warm enough to swim in. How to get there: By Car/Scooter: Take Provincial highway 1 south to the bottom of Taiwan until it becomes Provincial highway 26. After that keep going past Checheng and then turn west onto Houwan Road until you reach the beach. There is free parking near the beach. Looking for scooter rental in Pingtung?

Yuanshan Villa (aka MAISON ACME, Taipei Story House, or Yuanshan Mansion 圓山別莊) is a historic mansion right next to the Taipei Fine Arts Museum that has opened to the public as an art exhibition space and museum as part of Taipei Expo Park. It is definitely worth a stop on your next trip to Taipei.
Background: The Yuanshan Mansion was built in 1913 by a wealthy Taiwanese tea merchant Tan Tiau-chun (陳朝駿) who had a large business in Dadaocheng. Originally it was meant to act as a guest house for dignitaries. The first floor was built using red brick and the second floor was built using English Tudor-style wooden beams. After the owner's death in 1923, the house went through many different hands. The house was bought by the Taipei City Government in 1979 and was used as an office and storage space. In 1987 it was handed over to the Taipei Fine Arts Center and acted as part of the museum. It was declared a historic monument in 1998. From 2003 until 2015 it was open the the public as the Taipei Story House and acted as an activity area and exposition space. From 2015 to 2021 the Taipei Story House, another charity, took control of the building and used it as an art and entertainment space. From 2021 until the present the house came under the ACME group and it is used now as an exposition and performance space. There is also a coffee shop made from a shipping container next door.

The Lin An Historical House and Museum is one of the most beautiful areas in Taiwan. In fact, its beauty is enough to rival the Forbidden City in Beijing. This group of historical buildings has been wonderfully preserved and also has been surrounded by gorgeous Chinese gardens. It should definitely be on your list of places to visit in Taipei.
Background: The Lin An Historical House was originally built around 1820. The family originally migrated from Quanzhou, Fujian, and made a living as traders at Dadaocheng, running the Rong Tai Store. After becoming rich, the family built several houses in the area. By 1978, the main building was in a dilapidated state on Siwei Road in Da An District of Taipei. It was also at risk of demolition due to the Dunhua Road expansion project. After petitions from locals, the building was relocated to its current location in Taipei Expo Park and opened to the public in 2000. The Lin An Historical House lies within the Taipei Expo Park, which was created in 2010 for the Taipei International Flora Exhibition which ran from November 2010 to April 2011.

Chengmei Left Bank is one of the nicest areas along the Keelung River and provides an amazing view of the sunset and downtown Taipei. It is definitely worth a stop on your next trip to Nangang.
Background: The Chengmei Left Bank is named after Chengmei Changshou Bridge 成美長壽橋, one of the best preserved suspension bridges in Nangang, even though it is no longer a true suspension bridge.

SPOT Taipei Film House (aka former Embassy of the United States, Taipei) is a former diplomatic building for the United States in Taiwan that has now been converted into a film house and café. Here you can enjoy the history of the building, as well as a cinema, art show, art shop, restaurant, and café. It is a great tourist stop in the heart of Taipei.
History The current building where the Taipei Film House currently lies was constructed in 1926 as the American Consulate in Taihoku during the Japanese rule of Taiwan. The consulate closed in 1941 due to WWII. After WWII, the US took the building back and renamed it the Consulate of the United States, Taipei. The building also served as the US Ambassador's residence. In 1953, the building was upgraded to an embassy. In 1957, a riot broke out and Taiwanese people stormed the embassy due to the alleged murder of an ROC national by an American. For more on this story, check out this podcast by Formosa Files. After The US switched recognition to the PRC in 1979, the building was left abandoned. The building was listed as a historic monument in 1997 and was renovated in 2000. The building now houses a cinema, coffee shop, restaurant, and gift shop. It is usually not very crowded.
