 | ASIA MILES X MONOCLE  | | AUGUST —— Take the high-speed rail from Kaohsiung to Taipei – and alight at every opportunity. | | Taipei is the lively northern capital of Taiwan, but the Taiwanese have an appreciation for the slower pace of life in the south. | | This month's "Monocle Mile" is a culinary and cultural train ride to Taipei that stops to soak up the experiences of Tainan, Taichung and Hsinchu before dinner, and drinks in the capital with a rewarding rest at one of the capital's most storied hotels. Members of Asia Miles can earn miles and redeem rewards every step of the way. | | READ MORE | | | | |
