About Taiwan & Taichung
-- Taiwan is known fondly as “the heart of Asia” due to its friendly culture as well as its central location to Southeast Asia, China, Japan and the Philippines.
We value Taiwan's highly effective universal healthcare and excellent doctors of all specialties. Even in our city of over 2.6 million people, the vibrant expat community lifestyle is often described as living in a small town within a city. Taichung offers easy access to the beautiful and temperate DaKeng mountains, which host a close-knit global community.
Our city is growing rapidly, and we further enjoy an increasing diversity of nightlife and new cultural opportunities as well as national institutions, such as a world-class art and science museum.
For trips farther afield, Taichung is a 45-minute HSR trip away from Taipei; a day trip to tropical beaches, snow-capped mountains, or hot springs; and our small international airport allows for quick and inexpensive flights throughout Asia.
