The north has Jiufen, the oceanside town that Spirted Away was based on. Taipei has 101, and Elephant Mountain.
The east coast is a nature lovers paradise, you have Yilan / Hualien / Taidong. Yilan I've yet to go to, but have heard the scenery's good, and it has the Kavalan Whiskey distillery. Hualien has Taroko Gorge which is impressive. Taidong can take you to some of the outer islands, Green Island & Orchid Island.
Down south, you have Tainan, Kenting, and Kaohsiung.
Tainan is the old capital and the food capital of Taiwan. If you like history, go to Anping or Chikan Tower. For art, go to Qimei Museum, The Cultural Center or Xinmei rd. For eating as much good Asian food as you can, just walk around or go to Huayuan night market. You can also get to Penghu Island from Anping.
Kaohsiung is a lot like Tainan, but with more western influence. Here you can find good European / American food. As for places to see, go to Pier 2, Xiziwan, Lotus Pond, Fo Guang Temple, Rueifang night market, Cijian Island, Xiaoliuqiu.
Kenting is where everybody goes to the beach.
As for the west, you have Alishan National Park if you like giant trees. Ershui / Jiji for cycling in the fields / mountains. Yuanlin for a good small town experience. Taichung for Indian food and Luce Chapel. Miaoli for Tea Sage Hut.
Lmk what you're in to and I can give you more specific suggestions

Taroko Gorge was already on my list of things to see. I was going to go to Taipei 101 and the shopping district up there back in Hualien I heard there was a really good night market. So I have to find that out and put it on my list of things to hit. Im planning on going there around Christmas (22nd) already got my plane tickets.

In Kaohsiung now, people ate total dicks here for some reason, which comes as a shock after hualien and Taipei where everyone is super friendly, what's to do here?
We can't help unless you give us some direction here. What are you into? Nature? Drugs? Partying with backpackers? Fucking easy local girls? Fucking local hookers? Temples?

Not him but I'm into all of those

OP you need to go to Pattaya, its one of my favorite cities in SEA. Beautiful women, fantastic cheap food, and there is just a bunch of tuff to do there. Also the people are really nice.
