      Wow, I haven't heard the term 'backpacker' in mainland China for ages, hahaha! I stayed in youth hostels too during those wonderful years, but I'm not so keen on it anymore!

        I'm going on the 15th. It's safe. I've been twice already, and this will be my third trip.

          Okay! Could I ask, sis, for Taipei, what's a typical budget for a hotel that offers a good experience? I'm really worried about taking a gamble and ending up in a gloomy, unpleasant place.

            Not safe! You risk gaining weight from all the amazing food!

                    It's very safe. It really depends on your budget. For more affordable options, chain hotels generally offer better quality.

                      Okay, after seeing what everyone's said, I feel I don't need to be too nervous.

                        It's quite safe, but it's still advisable not to go out too late at night.

                          Got it! Everyone else is saying the same. I pretty much understand now; the safety level should be similar to Hong Kong and Macau.

                            Taiwan is genuinely very safe. I once left my MacBook Pro at the airport, and a kind person handed it into the nearby police station. I went to pick it up the next day.

                              Taiwanese people are truly warm-hearted.

                                  I'll go as soon as my Taiwan entry permit comes through.

                                    Even when I was 14, I could go out alone in the wee hours of the morning and feel quite safe and at ease.

                                      Thanks! I'm not so worried anymore, hahaha.
