前两周趁着学校秋休み的时候跟媳妇一起去台湾玩了一周，的确是很独特的体验。不是因为自然环境或者物质因素，而是整体的氛围感觉。
目前中国居民是无法去台湾旅游的，因为我们属于日本居民，所以并不麻烦地就申请到了入台证。
在大阪机场的时候，放眼望去，全部是拿着中华民国和日本护照的人，中国公民似乎就我们两个。

关于本次旅行的摄影，请移步：
是中国又不是中国
这就是我在台湾最强烈的感受。
人们说的话我能听懂，街上的招牌能看懂。城市街道像广东和福建的某个地方，流行的食物也是中餐。甚至乱糟糟、吵吵闹闹的感觉，也很熟悉。台湾的硬件，毫无疑问是文化意义上的中国。

但如果将中国定义为PRC，那台湾绝对不是中国。

这里看不到常见的中国品牌，反倒是在看到某个熟悉的品牌后，才恍然大悟：原来这是台湾/外国的牌子啊。前者如天仁茗茶，后者如新加坡品牌海底捞。
这里没有中国那些常见的场景：无处不在的政治标语、一个街口的十个摄像头、几乎绝迹的现金支付，有的是密集的宗教场所和明显的传教广告牌，以及大量的外国人。

这种熟悉又陌生的感觉是台湾给我的最大感受。
宗教
台湾的宗教场所密度应该是华人地区之首。
拿基督教来说，很多教派在中国是见不到的，如耶稣基督后期圣徒教会，浸信会。

道教也很常见，尤其是在台南。当时恰逢什么庆祝活动，那两天不断看到有信众抬着神像游街。

我还见到了一些大陆不可能见到的教派，比如一贯道、法轮功。
除了密度高，这里的传教似乎也不受限制。“神爱世人”就明晃晃地写在街角最显眼的地方。
城市风格
我这次去了台北、台中、台南三个城市。
台北在国际上的影响力尚可。若把台北加入大中华区排名，我认为属于强二线。一线自然是北上广深港。但如果只看台北的街区，就很像是三线城市。
我想大概是因为这里的政府在拆迁上没有太大权力，大量老旧建筑，容积率也挺高，的确会给人破破烂烂的感觉。在造奇观这方面的确很少有国家能比得过中国。但考虑到台北在文化上的影响力，我愿将其列入强二线。
台中给我的感觉很像日本，只是没那么干净整洁。台南更像是汕头。

台湾跟日本一样，街道上很少见垃圾桶。但跟日本不同的地方在于，台湾街道真的太脏了！
比中国好的一点是地上不会有吐的痰和槟榔渣，但比日本和中国多了很多其他垃圾：纸片、瓶子、烟头、塑料袋……不一而足。多到我无法忽视的地步。
我还经常能在街头见到招摇过市的大蟑螂，台北宁夏夜市往南京西路的一个路口，我看到几十只大蟑螂在散步，真的被吓到。
机车的确多，在路口的时候，绿灯亮起，几十台摩托车同时轰鸣的场面很壮观，也很吵。

另外额外吐槽台南一点，这个城市似乎没有无障碍通道。走在路边经过一排排店铺的时候，他们每一家的地面高度都是不同的。我拖着行李箱走在上面的时候就得不停把箱子抬上抬下，叠加台南的酷热天气，体验极其糟糕。

（在我看来）台湾人开车非常猛，比日本要猛得多。但整体比较有秩序，都能做到车让人。（在成都是不可能的）
气候
我还是低估了热带的气候。来之前我想，都快10月了，再热能热到哪去。结果天天热到爆，还特别潮湿。走在街上没一会衣服就湿透了，很难受。台北相对来说好一些，台中更热一点，台南热到融化。温度上也许没那么高，但湿度真的太大了，而且风很小，导致体感温度特别高。
总之台湾的气候我要打差评。
文化
在这里我看到了中华文明的另一种可能。报站有四种语言，电视里有台语、客家话、原住民频道。我还去书店看了看，有很多台语书籍，以及本土视角的各类论述。

举个例子，他们会争论书写台语（闽南语）的时候，到底是用国语（普通话）的语法，还是按照台语本身的语法。
我拿粤语举例。“你吃了没”用粤语念出来，是“你[nei5]吃[hek3]了[liu5]没[mut6]”。但实际上广东人不会这么说，而是会说“你[nei5]食[sik6]咗[zo2]饭[faan6]未[mei6]”。
所以台湾人在讨论的大概就是到底应该写“你吃了没”还是“你食咗饭未”。

自然
我去了日月潭、清静农场、十分瀑布、野柳，体验倒还好。只是单纯从自然风光的角度来评判，这些地方是远不如中国西部（藏区、新疆）的。我可以理解这些地方在岛内是一个好去处，无论从哪个城市出发，一个周末肯定是够用
如果把飞行几千公里的前提考虑进去，台湾的自然风光是一般般的。
物价
去之前看了网上的说法，说台湾物美价廉。但实际感受并没有。肯定不如日本贵，但也便宜不到哪去。

总结
总体上是个体验还不错，物价还可承受的地方。不过我不喜欢热带，以后可能不会再去了。
