With forested mountains, fascinating temples, and over 1500 kilometres of coastline, it’s easy to see why a trip to Taiwan is high up on many travel bucket lists. On a Carnival cruise to Taiwan, guests can explore Keelung, gateway to Taipei. A sophisticated modern metropolis that has not forgotten its rich traditional past, Taipei is the largest city and the capital of Taiwan, located on the Danshui River. For those who love the hustle and bustle of a big city, Taipei truly is a great place to visit. It is renowned for its shopping malls, among the most popular being Core Pacific City. If shopping isn’t your thing head to Yehliu Geographic Park, known for its otherworldly rock formations.
