The easiest way to get around in Taiwan is by subway in Taipei and Kaohsiung, and bus elsewhere. It is recommended to purchase an EasyCard for NT$100, which can be reloaded and used for travel rather than purchasing tokens individually. This saves time queuing and gives more time to explore, making it a practical tip for traveling in Taiwan.
In Taipei, residents speak Mandarin. Although this language can be difficult, it is highly recommended to learn a few phrases. Travelers can have a few phrases saved on the phone and this is very helpful in ordering food while interacting with people there!
