Using spaces in your search will return any matches. For example, searching for New Taipei will match the results "New", "Taipei", "New Taipei", and "Taipei New".
Double quotes
Putting your search keywords within double quotes ("") will match only this specific word or phrase. For example, searching for "New Taipei" will only match "New Taipei".
