Taipei government has made concerted efforts to promote tourism, as a way to increase revenue. They have recently revitalized three small towns known as Shuijinjiu, which have been quite successful. Shuijinjiu mean “lasting beauty” in Chinese, and the word includes first characters of three towns: Shuinandong, Jinguashi and Jiufen. Tourism has been growing and the towns attracted 3.35 million tourists in 2011, mostly from Japan, China, Hong Kong and Macau.
Another promotional campaign is for Pingxi, a site for the annual sky lantern festival. Taipei is also developing low carbon tourism at Shuangxi for tourists who like physical challenges such as hiking. “The provision of secure, cheap and convenient public transportation is a prerequisite for mass-market tourism,” said Lee Wen, commissioner of the city’s Tourism and Travel Department.”
