I was very surprised how clean the whole city and especially the metro + stations are.
At every station and every public place there are signs that you should not eat, drink or smoke. Even water is forbidden, a common mistake by foreigners is to think that water is a exception, which is false.
If you ignore those rules you can get fined up to 10.000 NTD (~320$)!
Taiwan also separates trash. You’ll always find two trash bins next to each other, one for normal trash and one for recyclables like plastic bottles. Most of the trash bins even have small ashtrays on them.
