The viral leaning postbox spotted even at Taoyuan Airport
By the editorial team of MOOK Travel Life Network
The viral leaning postbox that became a hot topic in 2015 due to Typhoon Soudelor can now be seen at Taoyuan International Airport too. Taoyuan International Airport has collaborated with Chunghwa Post to relocate the leaning postbox to the first-floor arrivals hall of Terminal 2. Coinciding with Christmas, it echoes the red and green postboxes and invites both domestic and international travelers to celebrate the festive season with a playful lean.

The leaning postbox is a beautiful mistake left behind by Typhoon Soudelor. Originally located at the intersection of Nanjing and Longjiang roads, the red and green postboxes were accidentally knocked into a playful leaning position by a fallen signboard, sparking widespread discussion. Even international media covered the story, and it was recently selected by a well-known Taiwanese portal as one of Taiwan’s top ten viral attractions of 2015. Recognizing the leaning postbox’s buzzworthiness and fame, Taoyuan International Airport teamed up with Chunghwa Post to move it to Terminal 2, drawing exclamations of cuteness from many visitors and adding a new photogenic spot to the airport.
