We Joined Taipei Free Walking Tour (Taipei, Taiwan)🇹🇼

It's crazy how a country with such a dark past can prosper so much. Taiwan is all in all mindblowing for us 🇹🇼🧡

I am Taiwanese. I am so grateful that you explain the history of these places and events very well and with a lot of the seldom-seen but accurate photos. The history here has so many layers here and it is so great that you can explore it deeper. About the Ài yù which translate literally to "Love Jade" is from a plant. So we put the seed into the water and rub it for 10 minute and the jelly texture will come out. So it is all natural and it is also not gelatin (which is from animals).

Taiwan has its own autonomous government different from China. It has its own military and spending. The written font is different from China. But who cares! Taiwan, China, they're all just a power struggle game played by the highest ranking officials. Who could say in 50 years CCP wouldn't collapse, then both China and Taiwan unified under one banner of democracy? Or who could say that China wouldn't take Taiwan by force in just 5 years? Or Taiwan gave up on its own democracy and instead look towards the other shore for financial support? This is why the CCP daily news development is more exciting to watch than prime time TV series lol!

In fact, most Taiwanese are the mixture breed of indigenous people and baiya ( 百越，people who used to live in fujian and Guangdong area). In 1786, the Manchurian Chiang officials ordered about 0.76 million so called civilized indigenous people to change their ethnicity records and their surnames. That's about half of the inhabitants population in Taiwan beck then.

[@astroboy2345]

Officially the martial law was declared on entire China in 1948 at the start of Chinese civil war between the Nationalist Chinese (KMT) and the Communists Chinese (CCP). After the KMT lost China and retreated to Taiwan, the martial law was continually enforced because Taiwan was under state of war against Communist China up through 1980s into the 1990s. The monument tribute was of the 228 Massacre, which occurred in 1947 (before the declaration of martial law). KMT official Chen-Yi then governor of Taiwan, had planned to defect to the Chinese Communists. From 1945-1947 he froze salaries for all public officials and pilfered public funds given by the Republic of China government that earmarked for post-war reconstruction of Taiwan. This plunged Taiwan into economic chaos and trigger events such as the lady who sold black market tobacco incident that lead to mass protest, and eventually resulted in the 228 massacre in Southern Taiwan. When the KMT retreated to Taiwan in 1949, Chen Yi was caught and was eventually executed for high treason in 1951. In the 1950s, the Chinese Communists sent thousands of spies attempting to infiltrate and destabilize Taiwan. The ultra-right wing conservative Christian KMT government strictly enforcement of martial law aimed to eradicate all traces of Communism from Taiwan. This resulted in ten of thousands of people executed or jailed for spying or sympathizing with Chinese Communists. There were many collateral damage, ranging from Mainlander ex-KMT politicians / academics who did not agree with the martial law govenment to those who openly supported the Taiwanese independence. This period, lasted through the 1980s was called the "White Terror".

You put the history of 228 Uprising well. That very piece of history was not allowed to be discussed in any public places in 30 years ago during the world-record longest martial law period in Taiwan. Chinese, or Chiang Kai-sek, administration wanted to remain power and legitimacy to rule the island by suppressing any Taiwanese symbolic things such as Taiwanese languages, self-identity, history and the uprising event.

[@astroboy2345]

The characterization was incorrect. You weren't allowed to speak Taiwanese only in schools. You can still speak Taiwanese at home and everyday communication. In my family everyone spoke Taiwanese during the martial law era. It was fine and no one got in trouble for it.

[@MaximSupernov]

You can change your currency at Taipei Airport as long as you are a major currency holder such as US dollars/Euros/AUSD/Japanese Yen/Korean Won. As for ATM, all ATM can withdraw foreign currencies as long as your debit card has "Plus" logo sign and your debit card has already enabled foreign withdraw mode before your trip with your local bank.

[@kristelmagdael11]

Maxwell-Luis Y. Law THANKS! But is the value in airport higher or lower than banks?

[@MaximSupernov]

​@@kristelmagdael11 Actually I don't think it matters that much as you are not exchanging with couple of thousands USD worth of money for a single trip. With hotel booked, you would probably spend less than 2000 NT per day, which is equivalent of 65 US dollars per day for food and transportation, excluding heavy shopping. I would say exchange most of the money in your country first, the rest exchange in Taipei, either in airport or withdraw from ATM. Airport is more convenient as the staffs speak English but other currency exchange places in Taipei are not really easy to find like you do in HK or Japan. All the hassles you spend finding currency exchange shop would probably only save you say 3~5 USD per exchange.
