Why Taiwan?
Famous for: Open society, friendly people, safety, night markets, hiking, biking, hot springs, cold springs, fascinating history, unique cultural offerings, and much more
Lay of the land: The majority of Taiwan’s 23 million people (and all of our schools!) are located on the main island. The jagged Central Mountain Range separates the highly-urbanized west coast from small towns and beaches on the east coast. Taiwan’s climate ranges from sub-tropical to tropical, with warm, humid, and sometimes rainy weather throughout the year. Excellent transportation links connect every corner of Taiwan to its outlying islands and vacation destinations across East and Southeast Asia.
Languages: Mandarin is the lingua franca. Taiwanese, Hakka, and indigenous languages are also spoken here.
