Is Taipei safe for solo female travelers?

Family travel

Taipei was so much fun, I was very young when I went there however the night markets were so much fun and food was so delicious. I travelled with family so we all stuck together, some things were a bit sketchy but as long as you stick to the brightly lit areas you’re fine.

Group travel

I travelled to Taiwan, Taipeh with my friends and had the best time ever! The food was the best I had in a long time and for the price it was too good to be true. I felt so safe in Taipeh and never had any issues with feeling uncomfortable. But also around Taipeh I was so impressed by the nature. I highly recommend going there!!

Solo travel

I felt really safe in Taipei, the weather was nice, and the food was delicious. I stayed at WoW Hostel in Ximending, it was cheap and the beds were good, with curtains and a lockers. It was sometimes a bit noisy but it is normal is this neither, I didn't mind. Staff was friendly too. Taipei is really great for museums and culture ! I loved it

Solo travel

I recommend staying in Taipei for a couple days! My biggest recommendation is tot ur Taiwanese breakfast! Fan Tuan is a breakfast food in Taiwan and it’s basically a rice ball with stuff in it. It’s super cheap at around 40 twd :)

Solo travel

It is safe and lively, it has well organized and highly developed public transportations and infrastructure. People are friendly, so many fun activities can do. Food are tasty, weather is nice during the spring.

I spent 4 days solo travelling in Taipei and felt very safe walking around alone. Public transport is very easy to navigate and the people here are friendly and helpful. I was looking to buy tea (a specific brand for a friend) they suggested some stores where I could go and even showed me different teas to even try. Totally loved the experience here and I would definitely return to explore more.

Many shops stay open until midnight, so the streets are still well-lit and you can find people if you need help. People are hospitality and willing to assist, even if you don’t speak the same language. Basically, you don’t have to worry much about personal safety or belongings. ✨

It’s overall a REALLY SAFE place to stay, but the crime rate has risen since the past few months so it’s lowkey scaring me as well. I would say tho, compared to other countries it’s def rather safe in Taipei still.

Except for a few very small areas in the city, this is one of the safest places I've been to in the world. Walking around after dark, I feel much safer than in any North American city, whether I'm in the street or in public transport.

Lost wallet will come back to you. People more likely to talk to you to help you rather than to bother you. Very little homeless, you would only spot some in cities, but they are busy focusing on their lives rather than going out of their way to speak to a foreigner. Oh and amazing food
