Taipei & the Taiwanese coast
Night markets that turn dinner into a decision paralysis of the best kind, a marble gorge cut so sheer the road ducks through tunnels to get past it, and hot springs steaming away in the mountains an hour from the capital.
The best time to visit Taipei & the Taiwanese coast is Mar–May, Oct–Nov, when typical daytime highs reach about 27°C (80°F). Local time there is 21:32 (UTC+8).
