The first destination on our Chic Travel is Taipei, Taiwan. According to the 26 Remarkable Paces for Solo Travel ranked by Buzz Feed, Taipei is the #1 city best for solo travel! And we couldn’t agree more!
Taipei is the capital of Taiwan (Republic of China), a country located in Pacific Ocean. There you will be lured by the exciting rich history and culture you will get to experience at museums and historic landmarks, along with all the best the modern world has to offer. The subtropical climate makes summers hot and humid with occasional rainstorms and typhoons, while winters are generally mild. For those looking to book a trip to this alluring city, be prepared for a 11 to 13 hour flight from Los Angeles to Taipei.

Traveling to a new country can be daunting at first, but the best way to combat the nerves is to dig into the rich culture there. And Taipei is the perfect opportunity to sample a cultural feast for the mind and body. The people in Taipei are friendly and more than happy to help visitors out, so feel free to ask questions if you happen to get lost. But what better way to get a taste of what Taiwan has to offer than to sample the mouth-watering Taiwanese dishes. There are plenty of food choices to fit every budget and taste buds, at whatever time you’re craving it.
