Transportation
How can I get to CCU?
From Taoyuan International Airport, one can choose from the following two public transportation systems: HSR - High Speed Rail (bullet train) or highway bus. If neither one is available - e.g. late arrival at midnight when neither HSR nor bus is in service - you can always take the taxi to CCU as the last resort, which would be much more expensive than either the HSR or the bus.
The complete route and cost of different options are summarized as below:
HSR (Recommended): about NTD$ 920 (Taoyuan → Chiayi)
