In Taiwan
and most major cities in Asia traffic is very
intense and they do drive really crazy! With that said gas is expensive; it's
hard to find parking. In Taipei
they have great public transportation that is affordable, clean, safe, and
convenient still the cheapest mode of transportation is the bicycle. This photo
was in Taipei and I was amazed with how many bikes were parked on this corner,
then when you visit the college you find even more bikes...Knowing the poor air
quality I prefer the subway system or walking and experiencing the local ambience,
but most people on scooters or bikes wear a mask to filter out most of the pollutants
caused from massive traffic congestion, air quality isn’t in the forefront as
it is in the states. As I traveled through Taiwan
and China
the trend continued, here a bike, there a bike, everywhere a bike bike!
