[quote=Anonymous]I'd say at least 10 days (3 for travel, 2 days to get there as you lose 12+ hrs and one coming home) then 7 full days there. Jet lag going isn't too bad and won't totally screw up sightseeing the first few days. I recommend flight times that allow you to arrive in the evening so you can go straight to bed vs having to try to force everyone to stay up all day after long flights where no one gets much sleep.

Now I will warn, the jet lag coming back is pretty rough and going straight back to school/work will be really hard. It took up a solid 5 days to adjust coming back.

FWIW we went to Taiwan recently. Total trip length was 13 days (3 travel, 10 full days there). We were all done and ready to come home after 10 day, not because we we bored, but more because we were just all tired from visiting and sightseeing. jet lag was only really bad on the first full day. We arrived in the evening and went to bed around 9pm, but were all up early around 4am. We all took an afternoon nap before heading out to dinner. [/quote]
