Taiwan is beautiful for those romantic at heart; rugged for those adventurous; and certainly, vibrant for all.

Taiwan Tourism Bureau through the Salam Taiwan campaign invites Malaysians to rekindle their love in Taiwan or the ‘Heart of Asia’ popular for its harmonious east-meets-west cultures along with the pleasant four seasons as well as various sensational attractions that make unforgettable holiday experience with the loved ones.

From the bustling streets of Taipei to the tranquil countryside, Taiwan has something to offer every couple. Besides, the country as of late has progressively becoming one of the most Muslim-friendly destinations in Asia, making it convenient for Muslim couples to explore.

Starting from Taipei, couples can experience the lively nightlife and bustling street markets such as Shilin and Raohe, and taste delicious street food. And of course, no visit to the country’s capital will be complete without a visit to the iconic Taipei 101 tower, where a breath-taking view of the city skyline awaits.

For those who prefer a quieter environment, however, may opt for New Taipei. Here, couples can visit the beautiful Jiufen Old Street, where they can take a romantic stroll around the charming alleys, admire the stunning views of the mountains and the sea, and enjoy delicious local dishes.

Nature-loving couples, on the other hand, will fall in love with the Qin Jing Farm, a cabin-in-a-farm concept retreat in the mountains of central Taiwan or also dubbed as the Swiss Alps of the country. Don’t forget the camera as the picturesque mountain sceneries here will make such a romantic background for the pictures.

Another attraction for nature-loving couples is the Hehuan Mountain Range, known for its beautiful and well-maintained hiking trails ideal for every level of hiker. Take the opportunity to climb together to the top of the mountain during sunrise and witness the beautiful landscapes below unfold right before your eyes.

Not into strenuous activities? Then, don’t worry! Go for the laidback gondola ride along the beautiful Kaohsiung’s Love River; the views here during sunsets are equally beautiful and perfect for a romantic evening. Another popular spot to witness a spectacular sunset is at Tamsui Fisherman’s Wharf in Taipei.
