Question 1

Which district is best to stay in Taipei?

Accepted Answer

Taipei is a big city so it's hard to say which district is best to stay in Taipei. For solo travelers, Ximending is the best. For digital nomads, Da'an is my recommendation for the digital nomad community.

Any district in Taipei is great because their transportation is very efficient. You can easily get to places via train so all districts are BEST in Taipei!

Question 2

Where should I stay in Taipei for the first time?

Accepted Answer

If it's your first-time in Taipei, stay around the Taipei Main Station so you'll be close to the main train station that connects the whole city. This is also the station to access the airport.

Additionally, all the landmarks and things to do are in this area so you can just walk around without taking public transportation.

Question 3

Can you get by with English in Taipei?

Accepted Answer

ABSOLUTELY! Taiwanese people speak English. You will not have a hard time going around Taipei and you don't need to learn Taiwanese (unless you really want to!).
