Kaohsiung is a city located at the southern tip of Taiwan. While Taiwan falls within the subtropical region, Kaohsiung is situated in a tropical area with temperatures similar to those of the Philippines and Vietnam, especially Hanoi.
Kaohsiung is Taiwan’s second-largest city, renowned for its beautiful and modern ports. It offers a plethora of attractions, such as the Contemporary Art Museum, Lotus Pond, and Cijin Beach, blending modern city life with traditional values.
The city presents a vast array of tourist attractions. One of the most popular is the Kaohsiung Art Museum, featuring a stunning collection of modern and contemporary art. You can also visit the famous Lotus Pond, known for its picturesque lake and flower gardens. Meanwhile, if you’re a beach lover, you shouldn't miss the renowned Cijin Beach, which is famous for its white sandy shores.
Kaohsiung has many shopping centers, but the most popular one is arguably the Sanfong Jhong Street Market, which is located not far from Kaohsiung Main Station and has many captivating spots for pictures. Shops in this market offer dried food products like fruits, nuts, grains, and mushrooms. The fashion and fabric district is located along Anning Road, behind Kaohsiung Main Station.

Located in southern Taiwan, Tainan, the oldest city in the country, beckons travelers with a rich history, culture, and vibrant urban life. From 1661 until the end of the 19th century, Tainan was the political, economic, and cultural center of Taiwan before Taiwan finally moved its capital city to Taipei.
As Taiwan's oldest city, Tainan has many well-preserved temples, shrines, and historical sites, reflecting its deep-rooted heritage. You can see a glimpse of Taiwan’s past through important landmarks like the Chihkan Tower and the Koxinga Shrine, which stand out with their unique and distinct architecture.
But Tainan’s charms aren’t only limited to its history. In fact, this city is also known for its vibrant culinary scene. Exploring Tainan’s local delicacies is a must, and one of the best ways to do it is by visiting its night markets, such as the famous Garden Night Market. Garden Night Market offers a sensory delight with around 400 stalls offering various products, from local cuisine to clothing and even games.&nbsp;
With its cultural heritage, culinary delights, and natural beauty, Tainan provides an extraordinary experience for travelers seeking an authentic adventure in Taiwan.
