Taiwan is blessed with rich natural landscapes and cultural heritage, where you can experience unique cultures and cuisines while enjoy stunning natural scenery – all in one place. Travel is no longer just about checking off sights on an itinerary, it is about understanding local culture, tasting regional foods, adding fun to travel, and experiencing all that life has to offer.
Travel Niches – or exclusive tours – refer to specific segments or target audiences in the wider tourism market.
During this year’s ITF travel show, Forte Hotel Group has curated specialty local culture products and interesting interactions at Booth I 1401 to help you get to know Taiwan’s colorful cities and towns. Visit our booth and take a trip to the most down-to-earth places around Taiwan. Experience the beauty of these interesting places all in one spot!
This year’s booth design includes 8 removable backboard explanation walls, using double-transparent material that replaces the previously used pearl board. The design is not only more environmentally friendly, but also fashionable, and the material can be subsequently remade into commemorative gifts, reducing the burden on the environment.
