Introduction

Not too long ago, the valley of the Danshui River was home to rice and vegetable farmers. Today it's the site of Taipei, the bustling centre of Taiwan's commerce, government and culture. Barely a century old, the capital is frenetic, energetic and busy, busy, busy; oh how it's made up for lost time!
