It has been and remains a province of China. Taiwan part of China recognized by UN and most countries in the world. Only 12 small nations do not...

I'm an American living in Taipei and absolutely LOVE IT HERE but never knew just how cool Kaohsiung is! So glad you also enjoyed Taiwan. The Honeymoon feeling for Taiwan has been going 10+ years strong! It's a wonderful place to live and explore. Safe travels and always welcome back!
I absolutely love Kaohsiung, so much that I am staying here for the winter.
I loved Kaohsiung and I miss it. I was there teaching English for over 3 years and I loved Kaohsiung more than Taipei. I lived in South Korea before Taiwan and Taiwanese people are a lot more friendlier in my experiences. Cant wait til I go back! I was considered a foreigner that was like a local because I knew all the good eats and locations all around Kaohsiung lol
Taiwan very interesting a place that deserves repeating again
I'm seriously impressed with Taiwan. Love the art work, sculptures, and modern buildings. Beautiful.👍😊💙🇹🇼
Us too! Definitely going to come back and see more 😁
Cool.👍😊
mordern buildings... lol
I live in Kaohsiung, it's the best city in Taiwan ☺
u r right !
i agree. as a Korean-American, I love Kaohsiung more than Taipei!
I’ll head to Taipei on foreign exchange, but will definitely take the advantage to explore Tainan and Kaohsiung!
Appreciate that you do a lot of homework before traveling, and your knowledge often makes many locals like as me feel inferior!
The bridge is Great Harbor Bridge/高雄港大港橋. It is 110 meters long and 5 to 11 meters wide.
It can accommodate 550 people and bicycles at the same time. It is the longest cross-port rotating bridge in Asia.
There is an opening and closing show at 3 pm every day. Complete horizontal operation in 3 minutes!
You are right, Taiwanese like to go outside on weekends, although sometimes it feels crowded, but you can experience a completely different atmosphere!
I hope that one day I can do what you did, thank you so much for sharing such a miraculous and beautiful lives!👍🥰🙏👏
Have a nice trip! ❤Recommend The National Palace Museum (Chinese: 國立故宮博物院). It has nearly 700,000 pieces of the most valuable Chinese relics, all of which were brought from the Beijing Forbidden City （Chinese: 北京故宫), very worth visiting! ❤❤❤

@@giannishen Anyone you don't like, you say they are troll or hacker, I'm an ordinary real person, I LOVE my country, especially when I found it's so hard for us to make a voice, frequently my comments be depleted, makes your so called free speech so ironic.

Asian IP plus Data You have been caught lying countless times, and you still pretend to be an honest person. You really don't need to treat others as idiots!
We are in Kaohsiung too! Thanks for sharing the footage so that we have an idea what to do :)
Have fun!
If I ever go back to Taiwan, I guess I should go in the spring. When I was in Kaohsiung in early November, it was scorching hot the whole time!
Thank you for showing my beautiful hometown 😊
There’s a lot of things to do in Kaohsiung. Hope you will come back soon! Taiwan is indeed underrated because foreigners think that most Taiwanese can’t speak english. But it is really convenient here. Signage have english translation. And we can always use google when we are lost in translation. I love it here! Been living and working here for 12 yrs now. Hoping to get a permanent resident visa soon.
Beautiful. Could visit Taiwan for sure
I am biased because I am from Taiwan, but I’ve always thought it’s an underrated gem. So I’ve loved watching your videos of Taiwan because my feelings feel validated! I do warn you that the summers are very humid!!
I was contemplating between Hong Kong or Kaohsiung to travel to this summer. But now I think I wanna go to Kaohsiung more coz of the vibe. 😍
Kaohsiong definitely has more to offer
They are very different places despite both being harbour cities. Kaohsiung is much more laid back, and far cheaper. In the summer it will however be very hot!
@@guybeauregard HK very hot too in summer
Try not to get burn under the sun. It's gonna be extremely hot at tropical area in summer.
I love HK but I think the entire vibe has changed over the last couple of years become of you know what.. It’s not what it used to be. Definitely give Kaohsiung a try. You’ll love it
When I first lived in Kaohsiung in about 1994, it was maybe the 2nd busiest port in the world. The Love River was thick and dark, terribly polluted. The city was nothing like it is today. It keeps getting better. The strawberries on a stick are called tang hu lu (tung who loo). Very nice! Thousands of foreigners live in Kaohsiung these days - only a handful in 1994. Lots of rain over the summer months and very high temperatures.
Yes I agree first time I visited Kaohsiung was 2000 and we arrived on bikes after cycling down the east coast from taipei to kenting and back up west coast. After cycling past the refineries and then china steel and through all the pollution I vowed never to return to kaohsiung. Then 2003 I was sent back to kaohsiung as the company I worked for was building part of the high speed rail. Wow what a change in 3 years and I saw it changed much more in the next few years I was doing the high speed rail project. Been here 20 years this year, and best place ever! And only getting better!
Good day Chris and Carol. Thank you for sharing your adventure in Taiwan. Great posting.
In most countries that I have been to, it always seems nice at first glance but after the novelty wears off, their down sides become overwhelming. Taiwan is quite the opposite. What you see is what you get in Taiwan. They don't worry about sprucing up the appearances or embellishing the dark side. Taiwanese people simply make their country a very nice place to work and live in.
台湾不是一个国家
Oh Woww its soo beautiful ...clean and warm 71° is puuurfect! I love...the LOVE RIVER❤ It seems like your videos aren't long enough because I enjoy them SOOO much...tyvm Chris and Carol❤❤
We did not really think about coming to Taiwan before, but thanks to your videos, we are now planning to come in a few months (September) :) It looks like there is everything there, really excited about the nature, the food etc
September is summer in Taiwan, and the weather will be more suitable after October.
@kia NoNo Oh thank you :) Does it feel really hot in September?
@@sylvieanddanny Taiwan is a subtropical and tropical island with hot and humidity; that's the problem. We still need the air conditioner in Taipei in September, and Kaohsiung can still feel the heat in the daytime in November.
@kia NoNo That makes sense. Thank you a lot for taking the time to reply. We really appreciate it :)
@@sylvieanddanny 7~9月的台灣雖然很熱，但如果對玩水有興趣，也可以選擇到宜蘭烏石港游泳衝浪，或到蘭嶼、綠島、高雄小琉球都是浮潛的好地方。
Love the video!! What a peaceful city full of energy n creativity ❤
Great work! I can't believe your time in Taiwan has come to an end. Hope you're able to make it back here soon. Cheers, Guy
玩的開心🎉台灣很安全😂👍
Bumming myself for not going to Kaoshiung when I went to Taiwan the first time. Gotta go back. The art center looks amazingly cool. Plus Kaoshiung is seafood center. Thanks for your Taiwan video series! I really enjoy your videos, so relaxed and you're not afraid to get lost while exploring.
Love this beautiful city
我跟其他網友的感覺相似，喜歡你們平實不誇張的影片風格👍
歡迎你們有空常回來臺灣走走❤
Hi juys,Taiwan is a fabulous country to visit,went there just before covid hit the world,love it there,in Kota Kinabalu Bornio at moment, nice place,don't know if you have been there .Worth a try,😊
I used to live there 20 years ago, nice clear video to get me up to date. The draught that southern Taiwan is experiencing has really affected Kaohsiung, it looks like southern Europe now rather than the Asia I remember.
That beach with the cactus is literally the only place in Kaohsiung that’s brown, and it looks like that whether it rains or not. That tends to happen when most of the ground is made of sand.
My mom tells me that the best place to visit in Asia is Taiwan, way better than Mainland China for sure and because its very affordable compared to the other countries, though Japan is good to go now since the USD is strong. However, my Cantonese is better than Mandarin for sure.
Before watching your videos and a couple of other recent vlogs on Taiwan, I really didnt know much about that country. Now when I understand how beautiful and diverse the island nation is, I could refer to it as a ”Madeira of Asia”: A hidden or at least not well known piece of paradise, and really underrated place. Yet again spot on series of videos by the one and only Jumping Places: Perfection 👌🏻
Taiwan is the 4th safest country in the world, No. 1 in the medical world, No. 1 in 3C technology TSMC chips, scenery, food, pearl milk tea... a lot is waiting for you to discover
@@kevinlo9688 Such a great news coming from Taiwan! Im already considering travelling there in the coming years. My only concern is the western neighbouring country, which seems to be more than eager to make a move 😩
@@vepakko We've got a rogue neighbor and we're bothered too😮💨
Don't go to Taiwan and Kaohsiung! Keep going to Phuket. I've been to Kaohsiung many times and enjoy the freedom there, without Finnish and other European drunkards embarrassing themselves.
Great country
i agree most underrated country been 3 times myself
Wish we had stayed longer to see more, definitely coming back though :D
@@JumpingPlaces all the places you went I have been and the whole country is amazing. one i didnt see you go was SUNMOON LAKe
Another fantastic travel vlog from Chris and Carol! Thank you for taking me along with you to the abandoned hillside village! You guys’ videos always capture everything! The history, the food, the trail, natural beauty spots, and where the locals live and socialize 😊❤
Great video. Love Taiwan, everyone definitely must visit this amazing country!
Beautiful place 🏖⛵
I miss you so much Kaohsiung Taiwan I stayed there for almost 10yrs it's a lovely place and the taiwanese are so kind..I leave in chi shien 3rd rd.i love Taiwan the food the life style and the people..ohhh God I wish I can come back to cherish every moment .I love Taiwan soooo much💜🥰😍😊
When I was still in the Philippines, my radio can get signal from a radio station in Kao Shiung. Geographically, kap Shiung is already very near to the most northern part of the Philippines and they said that people can hear crowing of chickens from both countries.
😅
Kaohsiung is my favorite city in Taiwan! Thanks for the nice video!
Spent two weeks in Taiwan with my family in April. Hands down the highlight of the trip was the four days we spent in Kaohsiung. We stayed near the Love River near Yanchengpu. Brilliant town.
After watching this I realized I should've gone to Kaohsiung during the last trip in Taiwan! Now I should plan going back for Kaohsiung this summer!
But should be aware that it's very hot and super humid in Taiwan, especially in the south. maybe after September!
Hope you both back Taiwan soon, see you next time!!
Chris and Carol, thank you for making these videos to show the beautiful and nice country that I live. I really enjoy your videos. Welcome back to Taiwan soon.
Very clean city. Lovely artwork on buildings and Beautiful Temples as usual. Love it! 😊
When you come back to Taiwan again, definitely check out Tainan, the historic capital; Lukang, also a historic town; Yilan, for the laid-back vibe, hot springs, and beaches; Alishan mountain for hiking and tea plantations… so much more to see!
Really enjoyed this series. A mix of city life, mountain hikes, awesome shorelines and full of culture!
If flights from the UK weren't so eye- wateringly expensive, I'd fly out there tomorrow! I'll definitely check it out next time I'm in Asia!! Thanks to your ( as usual) BRILLIANT vídeos 👏
Taiwan always waiting for your welcome.
Thank you for your wonderful videos!
Great video nice work!
Kaohsiung looks super pretty and comfortable in your video.
So chilling and refreshing!
Thanks!
Chris & Carol:I really wants to “Thanks You Guys” for these five or six remarkable videos that you guys released from Taipei & Kaohsiung, Taiwan in March of 2023 until the start of April 2023.Congratulations to you guys on your next destination Asian country in April of 2023.Taiwan is just a small island country in Southeast Asia with great Landmarks in 2023❤❤❤
Hope you guys come back soon, u got to visit Kenting and Tainan City besides Taipei, Kaohsiung and East coast 🙂
I think you're traveling off season that's why there's hardly anybody there, but you know that. My travel season for me is summer. That's when my body feels the best. My skin and old bones feel a lot better in the warm weather. ☀️🏜️
Chris & Carol: Congratulations to you guys for your final or last video today’s from Taipei & Kaohsiung,Taiwan in April of 2023 after releasing five remarkable videos in 2023❤❤❤Where is your next Asian country destination in April of 2023?
Nice places, thanks for sharing it with us.
I think Carol is Brazilian but she can easily pass off as a Britisher like you.! You both are a nice loving couple who complement each other so well so we have a lot to learn from you guys on how to get along so well. Live and let live is surely what you both do. All the best always.! ❤
Wow the weather is so nice , thank you for showing us the place😊
I haven’t been to the new area! It looks great! There’s the former British console at Takao close to cijin, also a good place to visit. Southern Taiwan in winter is dryer and windy because of the seasonal wind comes from northeast and the big mountains as a great divide has cut off all the humidity in the wind. Hence, the north/ northeast side of taiwan is raining a lot during winter. :)
The masters of positive energy strikes again ❤
Spring weather is always great.
Looking good! Stay safe and well!
thank you for bring us to see the river side along the pier 2 area !
very nice. thank you
So nice, Thank. For your video. God bless.
I am from Kaohsiung myself. This time of year to visit Kaohsiung is perfect. It just start feel warmer weather coming back like preheating the oven. In May, you will feel like baked in Kaohsiung.
I love ❤ Taiwan so adventure and healthy foods. I stay Singapore got nothing adventure only condominiums.
Awesome ❤
nicely done , i like your vlog , keep it rolling
Love your videos in taiwan
Great video and tips .... currently planning and wondering how much days to stay at various sceneries. Would be great to see western areas also.

Nice that you were almost in my footsteps . Yes the art District , also confused .
Was a marshalling yard with all those tracks .
I liked being a stranger in a strange land .Was covid back then :-)
Did you get to the sea and see the Coast Guard boats :-)
The plastic whale on the Love River ?
Glad you got to see some old Taiwan .
I got lucky while in Kaohsiung while walking back from the harbour , firecrackers .
I followed my ears for an hour until I found the source , huge street parade around the streets , epic .
That was about 1pm , walked to my Air BnB by the river and the last of the parade , called it a day 50m away from me from 6-7;30 pm .
Off again so soon , I feel you will want to return . I do .
was there this time 3 years ago .
A lot of time taken trying to get a flight home .
took the slow train from Ks , should have stayed at the bottom a day or 2 , then had fun up the east coast .
Going back , the gorge was cool , quite a day out .
Had issue with the busses , I know it says a certain time , the driver should slow down , I did not hail mine as he sped past .
So I did what I do , complained :-) When is the next bus ? Was a day trip . I got a lift and apologies from management :-)
I did see trails , for pre booking .
Found some almost as tiring with a fast French lady , her flight was booked .
Only so much you can put in one 'story' , some cool places I saw , not here . Hope you saw them .
You have an aggenda and a plan , cool :-)
I could not leave Taiwan , 1 month became 4 .
When you do get back , let me organise a trip around TOGA , 2-3 hours . Tainan area .
Literally a suburb for orchid propagation and growth for international markets .
I do get the 'been there , done that ' idea , got a grasp of the country and folks .
Would I go back and why ? What did I miss the first time ?
You saw the boats over the river , I crossed a bridge , all closed back then :-(
Been a cool trip back for me thanks .
There are a lot of vegetarian and vegan restaurants, Carol should try it
I think if Carol eats shrimp, she is not a vegetarian.
@@artfquinn it’s called pescatarian.
@@artfquinn even better, Taiwan is an island, you’ll find some of the most fresh seafood at the most affordable price.
21:50 At the foot of the mountain directly below the university (Sun Yat-sen University), you can walk north along the sea to the fishing port. This path is called Chaishan Alang Yi Trail, also known as Chaishan Secret Realm. It is worth exploring.
Just returned from there - fantastic place for an adult couple to explore!
WOW！so beautiful！
17:14 The tempura is made of shrimp and fish. It is called shrimp tempura because fish is cheaper than shrimp. The yellow sauce inside should be mayonnaise. Taiwanese (and Japanese) version of mayonnaise is super sweet because they add tons of sugar into it. Sometimes foreigners cannot taste it is actually mayonnaise.
Nice vlog. Chris, “look a bullet train.” Lol.😂
maybe you can visit Little Ryukyu(Lambai island ) , a gorgeous island near KAOHSIUNG where you can dive with green sea turtles ~
Carol & Chris: Congratulations to you guys for your final or last video today’s from Kaoshsiung, Taiwan in April of 2023❤❤❤❤Where is your next remarkable destination in April of 2023?❤❤❤❤
Welcome to taiwan,kaohsiung is my home , kaohsiung have some change these few years,it is very different than taipei
Chris & Carol: Thanks you guys for your five or six videos released from Taipei & other cities in Taiwan March of 2023.I wish you guys good LUCK on your next Asian country destination in April of 2023❤❤❤❤❤
我們歡迎所有喜歡旅行探索的人，無論他們來自東方還是西方。建議您下次可以有更在地的旅遊方式，細細品味台灣的風土人情。謝謝你們來台灣旅遊，藉由您的影片，相信會有更多西方人看到，也許就給他們找到旅遊的新地方。歡迎下次再光臨。
I love your vlogs and they inspire me a lot (esp. going to Philippines asnd Taiwan. ) But a request- can you please put on your vlogs, or state ,the month that you are travelling? I am never sure, cuz the vlog could have been uploaded at any time. That way, I can work out the best time to go ,weather wise. Thanks.
It’s been a spectacular discovery Thank you so so much once again! I can’t wait for Nepal and Himalayan adventures
Sabrina🇫🇷🇬🇧
12:41 The cute dog only looks confused like "oh, I thought you are my food deliver guy."
Tying eating Taiwanese sausage with some garlic.
Damn I already thought Chris has an iron stomach to handle those sausages--and here you are trying to push him to the next level!
Hello, you have a great you tube channel, for the next country to visit Pakistan, like the cities of Lahore, Islamabad, karachi, Peshawar, or the Hunza valley….
With great hospitality, beautiful places to visit, multicultural and very good food. Thank you
