北台湾

北台湾是该国风景最丰富的地区。 荒野的地形、凶猛的土著部落，甚至更恶劣的天气都让早期的定居者感到恐惧，使其成为岛上最后被中国人殖民的地区之一。

North Taiwan

North Taiwan is the most scenically varied part of the country. Wild terrain, fierce indigenous tribes and even wilder weather terrified early settlers, making it one of the last parts of the island to be colonized by the Chinese.

台湾中部

以北部人口稠密的城市和南部郁郁葱葱的热带平原为界，台湾中部是一个主要由山脉定义的地区：壮丽的中央山脉包含大量迷人的景观，从日月潭的迷人美景到 东北亚第一高峰玉山，气势磅礴。

Central Taiwan

Bounded by the densely populated cities of the north, and the lush tropical plains of the south, central Taiwan is a region principally defined by mountains: the mighty central ranges contain a vast array of tantalizing landscapes, from the mesmerizing beauty of Sun Moon Lake to the awe-inspiring peak of Yushan, northeast Asia’s tallest mountain.

-Taichung, one of the most dynamic cities in the country and gateway to the region, Taiwan’s third-largest city, noted for its innovative teahouses and vibrant nightlife.

南台湾

南部平原是台湾最古老的华人聚居地，是台湾文化的堡垒，台南、高雄和屏东三县的独立支持者比例也相对较高，台南、高雄和屏东等县都使用台语，而不是普通话。 慵懒的热带南部台湾远离台北，这里有槟榔种植园、菠萝林和沙滩。

South Taiwan

The southern plains are home to Taiwan’s oldest Chinese settlements, a bastion of Taiwanese culture with a correspondingly high proportion of independence supporters – the counties of Tainan, Kaohsiung and Pingdong, the Taiwanese language is spoken everywhere in preference to Mandarin. Languid, tropical south Taiwan is a world away from Taipei, a land of betel nut plantations, pineapple groves and sandy beaches.

东海岸

该地区明显具有种族多样性的特点，是台湾原住民最密集的地区：这里有七个官方认可的部落，他们的相对孤立使他们能够保留许多传统的信仰、语言和习俗。 花莲与台东两市之间是阿美族的中心地带，散布着泰雅族、布农族、排湾族、普尤马族、鲁凯族、萨基扎亚族和陶族的村庄。 在节日期间参观该地区 - 其中最繁忙的是七月和八月 - 可以让您一睹台湾鲜为人知的一面。

The East Coast

The region is visibly marked by ethnic diversity, with Taiwan’s densest concentration of indigenous peoples: seven officially recognized tribes are represented here, and their relative isolation has enabled them to preserve many of their traditional beliefs, languages and practices. The stretch between the cities of Hualien and Taitung is the heartland of the Ami, and scattered throughout are villages of the Atayal, Bunun, Paiwan, Puyuma, Rukai, Sakizaya and Tao people. Visiting the area during a festival period – the busiest of which is in July and August – gives a fascinating glimpse into a seldom seen side of Taiwan.

台湾海峡群岛

台湾海峡群岛散布在将台湾与中华人民共和国隔开的海风中，对游客和中国历史爱好者来说有着无穷无尽的魅力。

-澎湖群岛,距离台湾主岛最近的澎湖滩，散布着荷兰殖民时期和历代中国政权的废墟，拥有亚洲最壮丽的金色沙滩和未受破坏的珊瑚礁。

-金门，拥有令人印象深刻的历史建筑集中地

-马祖列岛,是仅次于金门的紧邻中国的马祖列岛，由十九座岛屿组成，其中只有六座可供游客游览，每座岛屿都别具风味和魅力。

 

The Taiwan Strait Islands

The Taiwan Strait Islands, sprinkled across the windswept channel that separates Taiwan from the People’s Republic of China, hold endless fascination for travellers and Chinese history buffs. 

-The Penghu Islands 澎湖群島, closest to the main island of Taiwan, the Penghu Archipelago is littered with ruins from the Dutch colonial period as well as successive Chinese regimes, and boasts some of Asia’s most magnificent golden-sand beaches and unspoilt coral reefs.

-Kinmen 金門, home to an impressive concentration of historic structures

-The Matsu Islands 馬祖列島, are second only to Kinmen in their proximity to the PRC, the archipelago comprises nineteen islands and islets, only six of them are accessible to tourists, each with a distinct flavour and appeal.

 

交通

铁路

台湾所有主要城镇都由高效的台湾铁路局 (TRA) 的本地和特快列车网络连接，但随着 2007 年单独管理的高铁开通，台湾的旅行发生了革命性变化。

高铁设有子弹头列车，将台北和高雄之间的旅行时间缩短了三分之二。这列火车是世界上最快的火车之一，在 345 公里长的轨道上停靠 8 个车站，平均时速约为 300 公里。

 

空运

台湾主要城市之间的航班已大幅减少。除非你真的很赶时间，否则除非前往台湾的离岛（尤其是金门、马祖和兰屿），否则坐飞机并不是什么好东西，因为那时你可以通过乘坐飞机节省大量时间。

 

坐巴士

公共汽车通常比火车便宜，而且除了高铁之外，公共汽车可以更快——前提是您在交通畅通且没有交通事故的情况下出行。

 

坐车

在更偏远的地区，例如跨岛高速公路路线和东海岸部分，租车可能是最方便的出行方式。

 

骑自行车

在许多旅游目的地使用自行车进行短途骑行和一日游变得越来越普遍，全国各地都出现了指定的自行车道。

虽然自行车旅行越来越受欢迎，但这主要（并且明智地）包含在东海岸较安静的地区以及更具挑战性的跨岛公路穿越山区。

 

乘船

有定期客运渡轮前往台湾离岛，但在冬季，许多服务会缩减。天气好的时候，绿岛（绿岛）和兰屿（兰花岛）很容易乘渡轮到达，而台湾海峡的小琉球、金门、马祖群岛和澎湖列岛一年中大部分时间都可以乘渡轮到达。

 

由摩托车

简陋的摩托车仍然是台湾的首选交通工具，无疑是探索公共交通工具很少或没有的小城市和偏远地区的最便捷方式。

 

Transportations 

By Rail

All major cities and towns in Taiwan are connected by the efficient Taiwan Railway Administration (TRA) network of local and express trains, though travel in Taiwan was revolutionized with the opening of the separately managed High Speed Rail in 2007.

High Speed Rail features a bullet train that has cut the travelling times between Taipei and Kaohsiung by two thirds. The train, one of the world’s fastest, stops at eight stations along a 345-kilometre track travelling at an average speed of about 300kmph. 

 

By Air

Flights between the major cities in Taiwan have been dramatically cut back. Unless you’re in a real hurry, flying isn’t a great deal unless heading to Taiwan’s outlying islands (particularly Kinmen, Matsu and Lanyu), when you’ll save a lot of time by taking a plane.

 

By Bus

Buses are generally cheaper than trains, and, with the exception of the High Speed Rail, can be much faster – provided you travel when traffic is light and there are no road accidents.

 

By Car

In more remote areas such as the cross-island highway routes and segments of the east coast, hiring a car can be the most convenient way to get around. 

 

Cycling

The use of bicycles for short rides and day-trips is becoming increasingly common in many tourist destinations, with designated cycle paths cropping up all over the country. 

While cycle touring is gaining popularity, this is largely (and wisely) contained to the quieter areas of the east coast as well as the more challenging cross-island highway routes over the mountains.

 

By Boat

There are regular passenger ferries to Taiwan’s outlying islands, although in winter many services are scaled back. Ludao (Green Island) and Lanyu (Orchid Island) are easily reached by ferry in good weather, while the Taiwan Strait islands of Little Liuqiu, Kinmen, the Matsu Archipelago and the Penghu Archipelago are accessible by ferry for much of the year.

 

By Scooter

The humble scooter remains the transport of choice in Taiwan, and is certainly the most convenient way to explore smaller cities and far-flung areas with little or no public transport.

 

气候

台湾岛国属亚热带季风气候，夏季潮湿潮湿，冬季短暂而温和。 台湾有两个雨季，在一年中的不同时间到达并影响不同的地区。 该岛的南部是第一个经历季风的地区，5 月至 9 月期间会下大雨。 季风雨随后移动到北部和东北部。

 

Climate

The island state of Taiwan has a subtropical monsoon climate, with wet, humid summers and short, relatively mild winters. Taiwan has two rainy seasons that arrive at different times of the year and affect different areas. The southern part of the island is the first to experience the monsoon, with heavy rains hitting between May and September. Monsoon rains then move onto the north and northeast.
