🛡️ Safety
Delhi
Delhi is generally safe for tourists who take standard precautions. Petty crime (pickpocketing, scams) is the main concern, particularly in crowded tourist areas and on public transport. Solo female travelers should exercise extra caution, especially after dark. The city's traffic is chaotic and dangerous for pedestrians.
Kaohsiung
Kaohsiung is very safe for travelers. Taiwan has one of the lowest crime rates in Asia, and locals are famously helpful and friendly. The main risks are weather-related.
⭐ Ratings
🌤️ Weather
Delhi
Delhi has an extreme climate with scorching summers (April-June), a humid monsoon (July-September), and cool to cold winters (November-February). October-March is the best period for visiting. Summer temperatures regularly exceed 45°C (113°F).
Kaohsiung
Kaohsiung has a tropical climate — warm year-round with a distinct wet season from May to September. Winters are dry and pleasantly warm, making it one of Taiwan's best cold-season destinations.
🚇 Getting Around
Delhi
Delhi has excellent public transport anchored by the massive Metro system. Auto-rickshaws, ride-hailing apps (Uber and Ola), and cycle rickshaws fill the gaps. Traffic is notoriously congested, especially during rush hours. The Metro is usually the fastest way to get around.
Walkability: Delhi is not a walkable city overall — distances are vast, sidewalks are often broken or nonexistent, and traffic is aggressive. However, specific areas are great for walking: Old Delhi (Chandni Chowk to Jama Masjid), Connaught Place, Lodhi Garden area, and Hauz Khas Village. Always carry water and sun protection.
Kaohsiung
Kaohsiung has an MRT (metro), light rail loop, buses, and ferries. The city is also very bikeable with an extensive YouBike network.
Walkability: Moderate to high — the Pier-2 waterfront, Yancheng, and Cijin Island are very walkable. The wider city benefits from MRT and bike combinations.
The Verdict
Choose Delhi if...
you want India's power capital — Red Fort, Jama Masjid, Qutub Minar, Humayun's Tomb, Chandni Chowk old-Delhi street food, and the gateway to Agra + Jaipur
Choose Kaohsiung if...
you want Taiwan's sunny southern port — Lotus Pond pagodas, Liuhe night market, Cijin Island ferry, Pier-2 Art Center, and HSR 90-minute rides to Taipei
