Taiwan
The anime fashion line makes its return, but once again not in Ghibli or Uniqlo’s home country.
The energetic, dance-filled festival will make its grand outdoor return to the streets of Tokyo for the first time since before the pandemic.
Don’t miss stopping at this delicious shaved ice specialty shop if you’ll be in Taipei during the hotter months.
Donuts might be low on your priority list when visiting Taiwan, but we highly recommend you try this one.
