Taiwan is a
subtropical island on west edge of the Pacific Ocean. It is 386km long from tip to tip and 140km wide at its broadest
points. The busiest air routes cross here. Hills and mountain cover
two-thirds of the island. The highest, Mt. Jade, of 3950m (12,996 feet) is the
loftiest peak in Northeast Asia. With mild climate, it is suitable for
sightseeing.
However, it is usually hot and humid in the summer. The average low temperature in July is about 24
Celsius degrees (75.2 Fahrenheit degrees) and the high temperature
is usually 33 Celsius degrees (91.4 Fahrenheit degrees). The
humidity is very high, sometimes over 80% or 90% in July. Light clothes, sun glasses
or straw hats, and umbrellas are suggested for traveling Taiwan in July.
We will arrange a one-day trip around northern Taiwan on July 11, 2002. The tour costs US $35 (including lunch and two admission fees) per person. If you are interested it, please book it at the time when you register the symposium. We also provide some other view-points introduction.
One-day trip line:
Academia Sinica →Chiufen Mountain City →Yehliu Scenic Special Area →Tamshui Fisherman Wharf →Academia Sinica
The view-points introduction in Taipei City.
National Parks introduced below locate all over Taiwan, and we just do a brief introduction to them. You should have a more than 2 days vacation to set up a tour (except the tour to Yangmingshan National Park).
