Taiwan was indeed underrated destination in Asia. It was my first time last September and I would definitely go back. A “Chinese” city that is more relaxing than Singapore, and not too overwhelming like Hongkong.

In reply to niobet76. Indeed, same sentiments here. Taiwan is quite underrated, in my opinion. That adds to its charm actually, as you don't see swarms of tourists even in their most popular sights.

I agree with your assessment re Taiwan being underrated. Not so much people would think of it as a travel destination. But just by looking at your photos I wouldn’t even know this was in Taiwan.

In reply to tracesofwanderlust. Nope. Cingjing Farm is located in Central Taiwan, about 4.5 hours bus ride from Taipei. While inside the farm, it's easy to go around on foot.
