    Oh! Personally, I did make some comparisons during my trip, but it was purely because it was my first time here and everything felt so novel. And I absolutely love these street scenes! Even though they're quite retro, they don't affect the convenience or quality of life at all. They just add a bit of charm. That really appealed to me! Mainland China also has many places like this, and now I'm a bit keen to explore them too! 😆

      One trip to Taiwan, a lifetime of fondness for it.

        So, I took a lot of photos to look at slowly later!

          Thinking of visiting Taiwan in December to see if it's really as free as they say.

            I feel like the weather in December would be nice too! Taipei does tend to rain a bit, but the further south you go, the more comfortable the weather seems to get.

              LOL, 'getting used to being randomly scolded before' – you can tell at a glance they're from Hong Kong.

                  Just visited Tainan for the second time this month, and I feel like I could go for a third. Tainan, with its low-rise buildings and somewhat old-looking streets, hides all sorts of unique little shops. Hayashi Department Store is highly recommended for a visit.

                      Taiwan's preservation of Chinese culture is much better than in mainland China.

                        Mainland China, in its rapid development, has overlooked some things. Sometimes, while enjoying the modernization, I also feel a sense of regret 🥲.

                          As a Taiwanese person, reading this makes me want to cry. Thank you for loving Taiwan so much.

                              It made me cry reading it. The article is so well-written.

                                      I was fortunate enough to visit a few years ago, and it was such a pleasant surprise and quite astounding. Whether it's the local customs and people, the cleanliness of the cities and countryside, or the high caliber of the people – it's all so different from mainland China. I want to go back N times!
