This dynamic gathering highlighted Taiwan’s abundant travel resources, cultural vibrancy, and outstanding travel services, serving as a platform for enriching partnerships and fostering business opportunities among industry professionals.

These hands-on experiences in Taiwanese folk arts, coupled with informative presentations, deepened travel advisors’ understanding of Taiwan’s rich cultural tapestry and unique attractions.

American travel advisors were excited about the opportunity to interact with the Taiwanese delegation and gain firsthand insights into Taiwan’s offerings. With the expansion of direct flights from the U.S. West Coast, they eagerly anticipate a rise in American travelers venturing to Taiwan to explore its wonders.
