Let's not forget the part of the Republic of China that is still under its legitimate government: Taiwan
We try out Taiwan's High Speed Rail business class, very similar to Japan's Shinkansen.
Follow our adorable and intelligent host, Scarlett, from Kaohsiung (Zuoying Station) to Taipei on Taiwan's HSR!
A video to share with most of you on my trip with Taoyuan Metro and Taiwan High Speed Rail, with all the details to make your trip more convenient. For more details, please visit my blog at: www.justbejess.com

This account gives us our first truly foreign perspective of life inside the Middle Kingdom - a place where the dead are fed until the living are bankrupt, and healthcare and education are subsidized by the state. Written in 851 and added to 50 years later by renowned Arab sailor Abu Zayd al-Sirafi. Enormous thanks to translator Tim Mackintosh-Smith and the Library of Arabic Literature for the use of this translation. https://nyupress.org/9781479830596/ac...
