You know I love Taiwan. And if you didn’t, well I love Taiwan. I think about going back ALL THE TIME and figured making a Taiwan bucket list would help get me even more excited to go back, not that I needed much motivation for that.
I broke it down into a Taipei bucket list which includes some places that aren’t in the city, but are close to it, within an hour or so of the city so you could easily visit them if you just had one or two days in Taipei. They’re also great options for a Taipei day trip. I also made a general Taiwan bucket list section which is where you’ll find everything further away from Taipei.

Like Slovenia, I realized I had a ton of pictures from Taiwan that I never shared. Or probably even edited. Sometimes I like to go back and look at pictures from past trips because I’ll see some and think why didn’t I do anything with this yet? So, these are those pictures. The ones I never did anything with or didn’t have anything to write about them or didn’t know what they were. A little collection of the odd ones out.

Before I left for Taiwan, I had no idea what to bring. I had no idea what the weather was going to be like. Hot and cold. Helpful, right?
I also didn’t know I was going to Japan until I was there, which didn’t help either. One last thing to make it difficult, I was going to the Philippines after, so I needed clothes for pretty much all weather.

I’ve mentioned before both that I love Taiwan, but I really didn’t at all for a while either. I shared what I love about Taiwan, now, since I like to keep things real here, I’m going to share what I didn’t love as much.
I would also like to note that these are pretty much all personal things that I didn’t like or found annoying, and some are just silly little things that aren’t actually bad but more funny. It was literally nothing about Taiwan itself. I actually love Taiwan and these are all just part of the experience. Taiwan is one place I’m actually dying to go back to.
Taiwan has a lot to offer, like, a lot. It has awesome cities, beautiful beaches, luscious jungle, marble gorges, and rolling hills. And that doesn’t even touch on the food. Ohh the food. Enough of this, lets get to the good stuff.
The Pingxi Lantern Festival is one of the coolest ways to celebrate Chinese New Year in Taipei if not all of Taiwan. I don’t know what goes on in the rest of Taiwan, so that’s why I’m so confident in that statement. If you know of something else that’s super awesome, let me know! It just so happened that I booked my five weeks in Taiwan to coincide with the Pingxi Lantern Festival. I didn’t even know it existed when I was planning my trip until shortly before I got to Taiwan.

I wasn’t sure about Taipei when I first arrived, but that’s because I couldn’t do anything for myself. Almost as soon as I got back to my hostel a few days later, that changed very quickly. The people I met definitely helped, but there is plenty more to love about Taipei.
