Hi,

I am planning a week-long family trip to southern part of Taiwan end of this month. Four adult (up to 55 years old) and my son (4 years old).

We are keen to spend 3 days to cover areas of Alisan, Rueili and Guanziling Hot Springs.

1) I wonder if we can do it with public transport without much hassle. My son will love to take the Alisan train ride, but without a car, I think it may be difficult to reach other places. Any advices on traveling with or without a car in this region will be…

Along with my son aged19 ,we plan to visit Taiwan for a week in Jan 2010,from Kuala Lumpur ,Malaysia.
when we searched for KL to Taipei flights cheapest ones were Air asia quoting 604 MYR and EVA AIR quoting 753 MYR per person for a return flight.
Kindly advise us,which one is better and any other cheaper alternative available.
Thanks a million in advance
Cheers

I get the impression that flights from Taipei to Macau are like a commuter train, turn up and go. Is this correct ?
Anyone live in Taipei to confirm this ?
I am considering NOT booking an onwards flight from Taiwan, but leaving it open - Taiwan seems so interesting I don't want to pin myself down.

I've found Air Macau to offer an amazing number of flights to Macau and return to Taipei. http://en.airmacau.com.mo/
Most of those flights are for gambling I assume.
Most are 6000NT or so... expensive

Free Qigong Learning promoted by a retired NCU professor.

Free, eazy to learn and good for health. After someone direct you how to do, you can learn everywhere and any time by yourself.

Public Learning places are almost at park or universitys' wide greenfields, you could ask any enthusiastic learner or teacher at greenfield how to start.

/Some Places/
Taipei: Da An Park (near Jianguo S. Rd, Sec 2, Gas Station) (maybe 07:00~08:00)

Chong-Li : National Central University(NCU) (at Assembly Hall…

Hi all,

I am planning to travel with a female friend to Taiwan for about 7-8days. This will be our first visit there and I was hoping to look for inexpensive accommodation since we are both students. Hence I was wondering if there any good recommendations as to where two females can stay that are clean and safe?
For Taipei, I came across Taipei Green Hostel which looks decent so would just like to confirm it with someone who has stayed there before on its conditions.

In addition, I'm also…
