[quote=“yuli”]The predominant wind direction in summer is from the southeast, and that air is warm and humid. If you want to be at sea level than you will find the relatively lowest temperature away from urban areas and near the beach where the wind comes in.
You want a place close to Taipei? At sea level (not cool but not hot, either), there is the northeast coast north of Toucheng, partly Yilan County, partly Shinbei County.
Places in the hills and mountains are cooler (but the price for that will be fog and clouds at times). But if that is fine with you, then you may want to consider the hills east of Taipei, such as the Pinglin, Pingxi, Shuangsi, and Gongliao Districts.
If you don’t care about being close to Taipei but still prefer to have relatively easy access to some larger urban area, then you will find some suitable cooler places in Nantou County or the eastern part of Jiayi County.
Finally, if isolation is not a problem, you simply go higher up into the central mountain range (there are a few roads that let you do that), and you will find even cooler places.

Hey yuli, so if the wind direction in the summer is from the southeast, where do you think I should live then? Away from the southeast area of taiwan?
I was thinking about some remote towns next to the seaside … a town not too big and crowded and yet not too small that there are no eateries…
take for example the guanyin township… it is so deserted that there’s hardly any eateries…
