I have visited Taiwan several times, and Taipei is the easiest city to get to. The reason may be because, like downtown Tokyo, there are many Japanese-language drinking establishments created by Japanese people. I really don't feel out of place.
The center of the city is lined with buildings and hotels that are more modern than those in Japan, and the music scene is small and reserved, playing jazz and Latin music in the buildings. The owner of the "Blue Note Taipei" live music club was very friendly, and we were very happy that he was pleased with our performance.
Compared to the past, many more Taiwanese businessmen were playing golf on weekdays, and it seemed that the level of golf had improved. Prices have also been rising rapidly and have caught up with Japan's 10% discount.
