Taipei, the capital of Taiwan, is a vibrant blend of traditional culture and cosmopolitan life.
Taipei is the political, economic, educational and recreational center of the country and is perfect for those who love big city life. There's always something going on - concerts, festivals, night markets - and lots of opportunities to meet people and get involved.
The approximate population of Taipei is 2,625,757.
Taipei is not usually a major tourist destination and is usually visited by business travellers. There are however, a number of attractions to visit while in Taipei. The Taipei 101 for example is the new financial center in Taipei and as its names suggests, is 101 floors tall. The Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall is also a great place to see while in Taipei.

“I have been teaching in Keelung, Taiwan for over 1 year now, and plan to stay at least another. Footprints Recruiting was an invaluable service for me, assisting in many ways to ensure I had a smooth transition. Without their support, moving to Taiwan would have been much more difficult, and my experience much less enjoyable. I have, of course, become friends with other teachers, both in my school and elsewhere, who did not come via Footprints Recruiting. Many had encountered problems, such as teaching at an unprofessional school, visa problems, housing problems, etc. I am grateful I never had any such difficulties. My experience in Taiwan has been wonderful.”
