The new campaign follows a strong 2015 for Taiwan, which saw an increase in UK visitor arrivals.

Johnson Wang, director of the European branch office of the Taiwan Tourism Bureau, commented: “Last year saw a steady increase in visitor arrival figures for the destination and we expect similar growth for this year.

“With this new high-impact strategic campaign, alongside our ongoing calendar of world class events, new hotel openings and the opening of a new branch of the famed National Palace Museum, we look forward to further driving visitor numbers and increasing the value of tourism for the benefit for the destination.”
