Taiwan has beautiful scenery, delicious food and warm and friendly people. It is also known for its diverse cultural history, and many must-go attractions from the city to the suburbs. Therefore, Lonely Planet, New York Times, CNN and other internationally renowned media have selected Taiwan as a recommended tourist destination for many years. In 2018, more than 520,000 Malaysian tourists visited Taiwan, and the number increased by 4.13% in the first half of this year, as compared to the same period of last year. Obviously, Taiwan’s rich tourism resources and charm are very popular among Malaysian travelers!
In addition, the Taiwan Tourism Bureau actively welcomes Muslim tourists from all over the world. At present, more than 217 hospitality companies in Taiwan have obtained various Muslim- friendly tourism environment certifications. Therefore, Taiwan is quickly emerging as one of the popular tourist destinations for Muslim tourists; it is ranked third in the Non-Organisation of Islamic Cooperation / Non-OIC category in the latest Global Muslim Travel Index / GMTI. The Taiwan Tourism Bureau has also developed the Malay version of the Halal-TW apps to make it easier for Muslim travelers to travel to Taiwan.
