Taipei, night markets and mountain tea.

Graze the night markets at Raohe and Ningxia, sip tea in a Maokong tea house, and ride the Pingxi Line to Shifen, then come back on the busy, well-lit MRT.

Eat alone: beef noodle soup, a breakfast shop, Din Tai Fung, shaved ice.

See: Dadaocheng, Beitou, Tamsui, Jiufen and Taroko Gorge.

Feel safe: a busy MRT and bags closed in the lanes of Shilin.
