Boasting its Chinese, Aboriginal, Hakka, Japanese, Western and South-East Asian influences, Taiwan offers an impressive cultural diversity marked by the multiplicity of festivals held all year round. This destination is an absolute delight for those who enjoy ballet and opera, without forgetting puppet shows. Martial arts, calligraphy, alternative medicine, and even tea, are an art in Taiwan! You can admire the treasures of antique China via the numerous museums in the country, but the high point lies in Taipei's National Palace museum.
