Over the last few years, there has been a perceptible increase in the number of Japanese tourists in Taipei. You see them everywhere--the National Palace Museum, the famed restaurant DinTaiFung, night markets, MRT stations--taking in the sights with guidebooks in hand, trying to get a glimpse of Taiwanese life.
這幾年走在台北街頭，人們可以明顯感覺到日本觀光客似乎變多了，無論在故宮、永康街鼎泰豐、夜市、或各個捷運站，常可見東瀛客手持旅遊手冊，用好奇的眼神按圖索驥，期待貼近台灣民間的生活氣味。
