Taoyuan Airport MRT Introduction
The picture below is excerpted from the Department of Transportation.
It is actually very easy to get from Taoyuan International Airport to downtown Taipei. You can choose to take the Taoyuan (Airport) MRT, bus or taxi, etc. The transportation is very convenient. Take Terminal 1 of the airport as an example. After getting off the plane, you only need to walk along the immigration inspection instructions for about 15 minutes to reach the immigration inspection office.
When you get off the plane and go to the immigration inspection, you will first pass through a duty-free shop. Friends in need can shop here, and there is another one before the immigration inspection.
The map of the first terminal, if you need to transfer friends, there are shower rooms, rest areas, and computer use areas where you can surf the Internet and take a break.
Come to the immigration inspection area!
The immigration inspection is divided into two areas: "Republic of China Passport" and "Non-Republic of China Passport".
After the inspection, you can prepare to claim your luggage and prepare to leave the airport.
The various external traffic tables of Taoyuan Airport include the estimated driving time and service time. The last bus of public transportation is about 11:30 in the evening, so pay attention!
Today I’m going to introduce how to take the Taoyuan (Airport) MRT to downtown Taipei City. After you exit the customs, you will see the “purple” Taoyuan (Airport) MRT (Mass Rapid Transit, MRT) indicator. Our protagonist today! correct! On the way to the MRT, you will pass the counters of telecom companies such as Far EasTone, Chunghwa Telecom, and Taiwan Mobile.

If you have passengers with large luggage, don't worry, there will be elevators, escalators and trolleys available along the way.
We finally arrived at the "Airport Terminal 1 A12" station of the Taoyuan (Airport) MRT.
Friends who have a credit card can directly sense the card and don’t need to spend time buying tickets. This rich man really thinks it’s great. After all, most of them only bring foreign currency with them when traveling abroad to reduce weight (laughs). You can directly use your credit card to “force” it It's really time-saving and convenient.

Once again, I would like to remind everyone of the names and timetables of each stop sign. If you want to reach the center of Taipei, please be sure to choose the "direct train", which can save a lot of time!
