At the Central Government level, tourism-related affairs are the responsibility of the Tourism Administration, which is part of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications. In addition, each of Taiwan's county/city governments and six special mu-nicipalities has its own unit responsible for local tourism marketing, promotion and construction-related efforts.
In addition to the scenic areas and private amusement parks under the administration or supervision of the Tourism Administration, Taiwan's domestic tourism and recreational resources consist of national parks under the administration of the Ministry of the Interior's Construction and Planning Agency; leisure farms and forest recreation areas under the administration of the Ministry of Agriculture; national farms and forests under the administration of the Veterans Affairs Commission; university experimental forests under the management of the Ministry of Education; and reservoirs, tourism sites, and recreation areas under the supervision of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. All of these areas are important destinations for travel and tourism activities for the people of Taiwan.
