There isn’t actually an “Old Taiwan” but the contrast between old and new is very striking. There aren’t that many places that were old in a charming, historic kind of way. Most of the old things were just OLD and needed to be replaced, fixed, or cleaned, but no one seemed the least bit bothered by it. Which I suppose is charming in and of itself.
