RE: Travel with me #118 : Ximending (西門町), Taipei!

There is a culture and an artistry that captivates the visitor. From the graffiti and stonework to the pulse of the people, there is a fusion of images and energy that comprise the tapestry of this city. Thanks for sharing this artistic pulse with us.

Absolutely, certainly for retained culture and sense of identity, Taiwan really is a precious gem. A lot of it comes from it's short history and influence from the Japanese and KMT, but the rapid development in the 70's and 80's and subsequent levelling off has really helped Taiwan stay grounded.
