I was in Taipei a few years ago for business, and stayed at the Hilton
hotel which had a very good and central location. Taipei, however, has
one of the worst traffic in Asia. You are not safe even on the
pedestrian walkways because even these are swamped by motorcycles. On
the streets there are huge wires dangling loose, I used to fear them
since they may be live wires. Be very careful especially since you are
travelling with young children.
