Best of Taiwan 1093 , 8 Days

Sitting off the south-east coast of China, the island nation of Taiwan –is one of the most densely populated places in the world. With the interior of the island being mountainous, the majority of its 23 million strong population lives in cities strung out along the flatter west coastal belt. Taiwan is therefore a land of contrasts: crowded cities with a plethora of restaurants, shops and entertainment options in one part, and lush forested mountains, sandy beaches and marble-walled gorges in the other. It may surprise some people to know that Taiwan has eight national parks protecting its wildlife-rich tropical forest.

Highlights:
Sun Moon Lake – a gentle journey through the history, culture and scenery of this remarkable place
Kenting – Taiwan’s first national park
East Coast National Scenic Area - Taiwan's last unspoiled land
Yilan - captivating blend of lush landscapes, vibrant hot springs, and rich cultural heritage, offering an idyllic escape where stunning mountains meet the serene Pacific coastline
