  • About Taipei city

    • Taipei is the national capital of Taiwan. It is in the northern part of the island in a basin between the Yangming Mountains and the Central Mountains. It is, with 2.6 million inhabitants, the fourth largest administrative area of Taiwan, after New Taipei, Kaohsiung and Taichung. However, the Greater Taipei metropolitan area, which encompasses the central Taipei City along with the surrounding New Taipei City and Keelung, represents the largest urban cluster in Taiwan with nearly 7 million people. Taipei serves as the island's financial, cultural and governmental centre.

  • Climate Overview

    • Taiwan is located where the Eurasian Plate and the Pacific Ocean meet, and has a subtropical monsoon climate. The island is heavily affected by monsoons, typhoons, air masses, and weather fronts; the island's complex terrain also contributes to frequent natural disasters. Taipei, located at the northern tip of the island, is also affected by Taiwan's complex weather patterns. During winter, the island experiences continental high pressure systems from Mongolia and Siberia, and is influenced primarily by the northeastern monsoon climate. In summer, the island's weather is controlled by the marine high-pressure system, and has a humid, southwestern monsoon climate. Meanwhile, the island's high mountains and the surrounding oceans contribute to the city's striking seasonal differences. In recent years, global warming and climate change have intensified abnormal weather patterns throughout the seasons. Winter has become unusually warm due to the El Nino and La Nina phenomena.
