City Guide: Favourite Spaces - Taipei, Taiwan

Taipei is the capital and busiest city in Taiwan. Like most of the other capitals in the world, it is always bustling with all sorts of activities. But my favourite thing about this place is that it is always so easy to find a place where you can recharge your mind in peace despite all the city noises. Every corner in Taipei is unique and I never fail to find a space that I love.
