Q: Taipei or not?

Happy New Year everyone

I still have time off work and am going slightly stir crazy doing nothing although I am enjoying the peace and quiet I would rather get away somewhere not too far.

Has anyone been to Taipei as my friend has some last minute tickets at her travel agency going at good rates, so anyone recommend Taipei and any general advice about visiting the city?

Thank you

Food is great, people are civilized. It is just like how China should be.

Go, or don't go.  Why are you asking us.  

 

 

I really wish that I could down vote this question more than once.

I don't get your annoyance. He's asking if anybody has been to Tapei and if they recommend it? Other people have asked these types of questions.
