As a birth-and-grown Texan, I can say that if there is one thing that Dallas misses, it is a real culture.
No designated Chinatown or Little Italy-Allen Endless Mexican restaurants where Texans can’t even allow that, they must produce ‘Tex’ from cattle against the ‘Mex’, as a result of which their own merger has not asked anyone.
Given how DFW Is the 3rd most connected airport in the worldOne can only wonder if endless plates of chicken fried steak and cups of sweet tea “dalla sites” have pushed to embrace their sense of travel and explore the world.
Of course there is much more than Fort Worth’s Rootin ‘Tootin’ Rodeos, the cult-like supporters of Whataburger (guilty as loaded), and Friday night lights in “The Metroplex”, but international cultures are certainly missing that taco stands are from gas stations, a breakfast.
In fact, one could claim That the world-famous Texas State Fair is the most cultural aspect of Dallas, but even then, how ethnically can a fried bacon-fed jalapeño be? And no, one Gucci Handbag at North Park or Dining at Legendary Campisis’s no Italian fashionista or Tuscan wine connoisseur, or.
Well, Noord -Texans now have an exciting new chance to broaden their world prospects with the 7th US -flight I have just announced one of the most affordable and lively metropolises in Asia.
Texas travelers can now park their extra large trucks on Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and jet way to TaipeiFar away from the usual road trip to Buccee’s.
Eva Air’s new flight from Dallas to Taipei
Eva Air is a 5-star Taiwanese airline. Eva not only has a flawless safety record Aviation overviewBut if your flight is interrupted, any delays should not take long because they have to get the plane back to basics in Taipei.
Eva flies worldwide to more than 60 destinations, where DFW is the last to become a member of the party. The others are:
- Chicago (Ord)
- Houston (IAH)
- Los Angeles (Lax)
- New York (JFK)
- San Francisco (SFO)
- Seattle (Sea)
The newest company of the airline will serve 3 weekly flights from Dallas From October 3, 2025A first for a direct Taipei-Dallas connection.
Forget Tokyo! Save money in Taipei
Is Taiwan a country or is it a Chinese area? That is a debate for another day.
What is uncomfortable is that the capital of Taiwan is surprisingly affordable and offers a wide range of attractions without blowing your bank account.
Travelers can even score unlimited train pass To explore the whole of Taiwan from $ 67 for a period of 72 hours and go up from there.
Last year we reported that the average hotel rate of Taipei was $ 125, which seems pretty reasonable. But I dug something for you and found a few deals too good to leave around the time of the new flight launch.
Stay on 5 stars Grand Hotel Taipei in October for $ 125, exactly on the same rate with our last reported figures or get a notch to 4-star Hotel Cozzi for just $ 110 or go one step further with a chic 3-star chic boutique stay in Art’otel Ximending For just $ 80.
It is reasonable to expect that you will keep your daily food budget less than $ 20, unless you visit one of the trendy restaurants on the roof.
Taipei’s culture: Night Markets, Street Eats and Ancient Tempels
So you have taken the long distance Flight of 16 hours From Dallas, and now you are ready to hit the ground!
Okay, maybe a jet-lag recovery nap first first, because you still arrive around 4 o’clock …
But then you quickly discover that Taipei is one of the greatest sensations in Asia. Save the buzzing beams in the Xinyi district, wander through the vast grounds of the National Palace Museumand reinforce your senses on numerous night markets, but Shell is undoubtedly the most popular one.
It is almost impossible to get hungry in Taipei, but do not expect burned ends and spicy plates ribs as you are used to at home.
What about a “smelly tofu”? This Taiwanese staple is not as bad as it sounds. I tried it in Xiamen, China, an island near Taiwan, and it’s really good.
Does it smell like a petting zoo? Yes. Does Parmesan cheese smell dirty socks? Yes, but you sprinkle it on your pizza, so give it a swirl.
It is one of the cheapest street larvae that you find, along with oyster omelettes, beef noodle soup and Taiwanese baked chicken, probably the best gateway street food for the typical Texan.
Finally, a visit to Taipei without seeing the striking series of timeless temples is unthinkable. Check out Dalongdong Bao-an In the Datong district.
And make sure you also press in a traditional tea house, as top appreciated Hermit’s Hut.
