Thank you for this information! I'm planning on visiting Taiwan this fall, not having been there since 2012. Back then I had to take the bus from the airport to Taipei station. I'm looking forward to being able to just ride an MRT then and there now!
This is an awesome video! We are going to Taipei in October this year. This video will certainly help us find our way to our hotel near Taipei Main Station. Thank you very much!
Hi’ May I know if how was it? I am planning to stay at ximen hostel which is few minutes walk away from the Main station, but I don’t know if how can I get there from Taoyuan airport, or if is it okay to carry my luggage inside the MRT? Thanks 😊
Hi, l'll be coming from the UK and l'll of course have GBP, can l change them into TWD at the airport before l can buy an Easy Card and before taking the train to central Taipei?
@Nu Manhe Taipei's Airport Express is convenient no doubt in terms of link to the city and airport, but outside of that their are numerous problems. The first problem is the station planning. It can be very confusing to find the station as it's tuck in the basement floor of the airport both in T1 and t2 so the initial layout planning wasn't really well planned. Also the Airport Express station in Taipei is like a distance walk between the MRT station of Taipei and the layout is a little like a maze, so it's not really convenient for travelers. The next problem is the express trains design are a little too simple for international tourist convenience as the area to put their baggage is not that big and wide. Seats were also not really that comfortable even if it's an upgrade of the regular metro trains, it's really a ' very small upgrade'. If you took the Airport Express in Hong Kong or the Narita Express in Tokyo, the seats are like those found in high-speed rail. Lastly and this one I think is the major problem is the in-town baggage check in service is not really useful in Taipei station as it's limited to only 4 airlines with the main 2 being China Airlines and EVA. Like I get Taipei not being as international as Hong Kong where they have numerous airlines around the world to provide in-town check in service to, but Taipei could at least expand the offer to some other Asian Airlines. It doesn't make sense to have an in-town check in service if they don't expand their services to include others. They have lots of travelers from Mainland China, South Korea, Japan, Philippines, Malaysia and South East Asian nations. So they can at least solve problem 3 by expanding their services to make it easier for travelers from these areas so that they can expand revenue and ridership for the system. Otherwise they will lose profit. If they solve the third problem then more travelers will use it and at least it will be convenient in a sense, the other problems are just minor issues.
Hi I just wanna ask. I’ve been to Taiwan last 2019 and I still have with me my easycard. I’m going back to taiwan this january 2024 do you think I can still use my easycard? Does the easycard expires?

Thanks 😊
Taiwanese are very friendly unlike Koreans or Japanese and just ask around
@@itswenderful I am sure you can carry your luggage inside the MRT.
Very nice video and I love your intro!! 😊
Thanks Mase!
2:44 The one in purple isn't the High Speed Rail, it's the Express line, they're not the same.
Thank you for your video
You are welcome. Were you able to find your way?
Thank you
Glad I can help
Hi, l'll be coming from the UK and l'll of course have GBP, can l change them into TWD at the airport before l can buy an Easy Card and before taking the train to central Taipei?
I think there is as far as I remember. Just ask around.
Can you buy and top up the easy card in the airport before getting to the train lines?
Yes you can. There is a kiosk where you can buy them. I wasnt able to vlog about it. Just ask around where.
How to buy HSR Ticket? Or with easycard you can just hop on the train or we have to buy the ticket first? Thankyou before.
How how is journey by purple n normal mrt?
The express is much faster as it will only stop on selected stations while the normal one stops at every single one
Namimiss ko nanaman Ang Taiwan kahit kakauwi ko lang😂
How much is the fare?
150 New Taiwan Dollar
Terima kasih
Thanks for the video! Can you buy an Easy Card in the airport, before entering the MRT?
Oh for sure there is. We bought our easy card there. I just used the single journey for this video.
Don't they have vending machines in the airport to buy the Easy Card, like they do in Japan and Korea?
Yes I belive they do. But I was not able to do it when I was there
May video po kayo ng Taipei 101?
Meron po post ko po this week. Thanks for watching
您這努力，台灣的機場快綫 不是很便利

How far behind is taiwan they didn’t accept Atm card to top up in the entrance like Uk or rest of Europe.they are not advance
Is the easy card like an all day pass?
From what I remember yes it is
@@technecamediathe easycard is just a top-up card, you need to buy an all day pass separately, available in 24/48/72 hour version
