About a month ago, I jumped on the High Speed Rail and headed down to Tainan with a friend. Tainan is on the other side of the island but the HSR allows us to get there in 2 hours. Tainan is the fourth largest city in Taiwan and the oldest. The Chinese first settled there at the end of the 16th Century, and the Dutch soon followed. It's mostly known as the land of temples. However, we discovered it was the land of temples, hair salons, and wedding photography studios. I think we saw roughly 75 wedding photo studios. (They are a big deal in Taiwan apparently.) In short, if you need wedding photos head to Tainan, there are plenty of places to get your hair done before hand.
We mostly bummed around in the sunshine looking a big temples and forts. We did walk over to see the Taiwan straight, which might be ask close as I get to China.
Really, all I need is information or a place to complain.
