OFFICIALLY known as the Republic of China, Taiwan is one of our nearest neighbors in Southeast Asia. Flanked by mainland China on the west, Japan on the northeast and the Philippines on the south, the island nation (still considered a province by mainland China), is the largest economy of any state outside of the United Nations. A popular tourist destination, Taiwan boasts rich ecological sites, panoramic monuments, traditional temples and busy night markets.
