Every culture has its unique characteristic and history background. Doubtlessly,there are also some special cultural custom and unacceptable behaviors from my country. one of the special custom will be the religion. In Taiwan, the most general religion is taoism which means peopel will go to temple to worship and peopel are not allowed to step on the doorsill. And the food that you bring to temple are also limited to some items such as you can't bring guava or some speacial food. Moreover, it also not polite to point the figure that the people worship and it may also bring bad luck if you do not respect the figure. Sometimes, it requires some wisdom to give a present. It is because some time the present's pronunciation has a hidden meaning and it may mean bad luck. For example, the couple won't send each other a umbrella as a gift and its because the unbrella in chinese pronunciation is sound like break up.
