Gate to house in Taiwan.

Lack of sidewalks in Taiwan. This has been really frustrating for me. I can hardly walk down the streets here because they are so crowded or there are no sidewalks. Places like this seem prime for being run-over my motor scooters.

Taipei clothing Market at Hou Shan Pi. Everything is super cheap here. There are racks of clothes in front of every store where things cost about $3 USD each. They wear really fun clothes here.

Handicapped seats on the Taipei, Taiwan MRT subway. These blue seats are reserved for pregnant, disabled, and elderly people. I can't believe it, but no one will sit here on a totally packed train.
