Taipei named anew as best leisure destination in Asia - International magazine

Taipei has been named the best leisure destination in Asia for the fourth straight year, in a survey conducted by Global Traveler, an American magazine.


Taiwan was also ranked second in the "Best Adventure Destination, International" category, after India, according to the list released by the magazine earlier this month.


Brad Shih, director of the Los Angeles office of Taiwan's Tourism Bureau, told CNA that the survey reflected Taiwan's tourism assets, which range from natural attractions to cosmopolitan charm.


The travel activities promoted by the Tourism Bureau in recent years included cycling, island-hopping, and hiking and have been well received by the American public, Shih said.


He said that based on conversations with U.S. travel agencies and his own observations, he thinks travelers will be more inclined to take individual trips or with smaller tour groups in the future, as the world slowly recovers from the COVID-19 pandemic.


Global Traveler's 2021 Leisure Lifestyle Award list was compiled based on the results of a survey conducted Dec. 14, 2020 to April 30, 2021, among the magazine's subscribers and online readers. -Central News Agency
