Located in the central basin of north Taiwan Island, Taipei, meaning 'North
Taiwan', is the island's capital and largest city.
Taipei has over 2,5 million inhabitants with a density of 9,736 inhabitants

people.
The capital is surrounded by hills and through the city three rivers run: in
the north Keelung River, in the west Tamsui River, and in the east Hsintien
River.
Taipei became the administrative, cultural and economic centre of Taiwan at
the end of 19th century when it gained economic importance due to the trade
of tea.
Today, Taipei is a very busy, modern city and is now home to the world's tallest
skyscraper, TAIPEI 101 (total height 509 metres-1,671 feet).
