My travels continue! I've barely stopped over the past three weeks, I have to slow down or I'm going to burn out at this rate, ha.
I had very few preconceptions about Taiwan and so it was an interesting stop in my journey! If I thought I stuck out in Singapore, that compared nothing to Taiwan! I think I saw maybe only two other non-Asians in all of Taipei. I was like 'where are all of my fellow tourists at?!' But it turns out all of my fellow tourists were Singaporean and Japanese going by my eavesdropping. There were thankfully some English signs at the major stations and very rarely around some of the tourist hotspots, but that was all.
With this in mind, I opened google maps and chose the most interesting looking thing within walking distance of Taipei Main Station.

And soon arrived at this incredibly long wall.
( Lots more photos under the cut )
