Best time to travel to Taipei
Taipei's sub-tropical climate means the weather stays warm year-round. The summer months are hot and humid, so for more pleasant weather, visit during spring or autumn. Winter’s Chinese New Year celebrations are the biggest event of the year, and the Dragon Boat Festival in spring is one of the most popular of its kind in the world.
