Taiwan By Bike
Taiwan is not just a traveler's paradise; it's a cycle tourer's dream! This island brims with stunning beaches, awe-inspiring gorges, captivating peaks, tranquil lakes, lush tropical forests, and intricately adorned temples. As day turns to night, you can find solace in the delicious local food and rejuvinating natural hot springs.
What sets Taiwan apart is its status as the world's leading bicycle producer and its significant investments in cycling infrastructure, boasting well-kept bike paths and service points at convenience stores. It's no wonder Taiwan is emerging as one of the world's top, and most underrated, cycling destinations.
