Having a acreage of 35,980 sq. km., geographical eccentricities awash the terrain of this sweet potato-shaped isle gem. Through the lush and flourishing verdant mountains of Wulai, the scenic ruggedness of Taroko Gorge, the dramatic basalt cliffs of Penghu, for the Taian Hot Springs, Taiwan is fast gaining a reputation as one of the most diverse nature travelling destinations in Asia. The Taiwanese culture can be a sweet brew of Asian mainland and archipelagic ethnic mores and traditions, being at a strategic economic and cultural crossroads between the two. It contains the Chinese culture at its core, attributable to the Taiwanese ethnical origins from the Chinese mainland, with a nourishing spicing of Japanese, Malayan Austronesian and Western cultural influences.

It has been seen that the surging economic increase of Taiwan for the last thirty years or so is nothing else short of a miracle, and indeed it truly is amicably dubbed as “The Taiwan Miracle”, an enduring testament with the Taiwanese patriotic resilience and tenacity. But seeing them up close, the Taiwanese people are affable, warm and cheerful. As a matter of fact, they’re a few of the nicest persons internationally. They’re so packed with renqing wei, translated roughly as “personal affection,” that a first-time visitor would never really feel any bit someone unfamiliar upon arrival, during his stay and definitely upon leaving this beautiful isle state.

Taipei: The Cosmopolitan Capital of Taiwan

Taiwan’s capital, Taipei, is a “must stop” destination for all who travel there. Long ago, the “Taipei Basin” was inhabited by an Aboriginal tribe called the Ketagelan. Later, Taipei became an important port for the trading of tea under the occupation of the Han Chinese. Finally, the city became the island’s capital.

No one can visit the Taiwan’s capital without a visit to Taipei 101. According to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat, Taipei 101 is the world’s tallest skyscraper. The building has a total of 106 floors, five being underground and 101 above ground. Thus, the name Taipei 101. Since Taiwan is located in an area that is subject to typhoons and earthquakes, the skyscraper was designed to withstand both of them.

Sun Moon Lake

Sun Moon Lake is Taiwan’s largest lake with a surface area of nearly 8 km squared. It is the home of the Aboriginal tribe called the Thao. In the middle of the lake is an island that is considered to be sacred by the tribe. Because of this, the Aboriginal Cultural Village has been constructed near the lake. At the cultural village, visitors can learn about the history and development of the Thao tribe as well as enjoy the scenic beauty.

The Taiwan saxophone industry dates back to just after World War II when Chang Lien-Cheng, a farmer’s son that abandoned the family land to become a painter and musician, created an organized Jazz Band in 1945. Their performances throughout Taiwan were widely acclaimed until the area suffered a great fire and the only saxophone of the band was so seriously damaged that it could not be played any longer. Chang began by making an accurate drawing of the saxophone which contained about 400 components. He then started to transform the drawing into a real saxophone. After 3½ years, the first handmade Taiwan saxophone was made. Due to its very good quality, people all over Taiwan began to be captivated by the saxophone. Until Chang’s death several years ago, he trained a number of apprentices, and in the process, launched a lucrative export industry. By the 1980s, Taiwan was churning out so many saxes under contract to labels in the United States and Europe, the government estimates that one out of every three saxophones in the world was made in Taiwan. Later, mainland China began ramping up its saxophone assembly lines, but these instruments were of a much lower quality. Despite the quality issues, the orders in Taiwan dwindled virtually overnight to a fraction of what they had been. During this time, about half of Houli’s workshops went out of business.

Today, the surviving manufacturers are fighting back. Their strategy is to stake out a middle ground between the top brands like Selmer and Yamaha and the low quality mainland Chinese instruments. While the work of making saxophones is slow and methodical, the owner of Lien Cheng Saxophones clearly feels a sense of urgency… “Our quality is improving, but if Taiwanese companies don’t move quick, they will be left behind.” said Chang Tsung Yao. The Taiwanese government and the private sector are furiously investing in research and development, quality control, and marketing. Taiwan’s branding efforts are starting to pay off. Once limited to the inferior ‘student’ market, Taiwanese firms are now making high-grade saxophones for the famous European and American labels.

Of course, the attraction of buying betelnuts is not just in the quality and taste and sheer addictive nature of the nuts themselves. Much of the attraction is the prospect of buying your nuts from one of Taiwan’s many beautiful “Betel Nut Girls”. These girls, some as young as fifteen years old, sit in small glass booths at a raised counter in full view of the traffic, always available to run out to a vehicle and provide “roadside service” for betel nuts and drinks. They provide a highly desired product for truck drivers, car chauffeurs, taxi businessmen, blue collar workers, and scooter pilots alike.

Interestingly, as the number of betel nuts stands increases, the greater the competition for driver attention, and therefore the sexy salesladies wear fewer and more revealing clothes. However, though they dress like Harlem hookers, they are not selling sex. There is no “adult entertainment” in Taiwan — no strip bars, no red-light districts. These scantily-clad sexy girls may be sitting in their bra and panty and garterbelt underwear in the window across from a MacDonald’s restaurant, in full view of children’s playlands, but the Taiwanese don’t care – it’s part of the local landscape.

Taiwanese architecture is composed of variety of styles. The old traditional architectural model of houses in Taiwan still exists here. However, traditional architectural features of Taiwanese style become unimportant when entertaining and commercial institutions, such as shops and theaters, are built. We should emphasize that modern Taiwanese architecture unites traditional Taiwanese and European architecture styles. There appear buildings in European style, such as buildings of foreign consulates, foreign concessions, banks, hotels and clubs in big cities. Consequently, the houses people live in Taiwan now and then are constantly changing with the development of international contacts. There are many modern houses which include the elements of traditional Taiwanese and European architecture styles.

First of all, any visit of a house in Taiwan starts from a meeting and a greeting. In Taiwan people, as a rule, shake hands with each other when they meet. Bows are a popular tradition in Korea and Japan, but not in Taiwan. Some very official cases are exceptions from this rule, where people bow when they meet. For example, at the rewards presentation or appeal to a large audience. According to the rule of politeness, when people in Taiwan hand in a present, money or a document, they offer a gift holding it with both hands. This tradition symbolizes that a gift is the continuation of your ‘self’.

When you enter somebody’s house in Taiwan you should remember to take off your shoes. There are usually special slippers for guests in any house. This is a tradition in Taiwan to welcome one’s guests. It is considered as the rule of good behavior if you prepare good slippers for your guests beforehand. However, it is very indecorous to take off shoes in public places. The exception is visiting some traditional restaurants, where it is necessary to take off shoes. Moreover, sandals are considered as foot-wear of rural people, and thus, they are not popular in cities because most places would not let you in.
