Taipei main station, Transportation hub in Taipei, Taiwan
Taipei Main Station integrates multiple railway platforms under one roof, including the Taoyuan Airport MRT line, the High Speed Rail, Taiwan Railways Administration trains, and local metro services. The building extends both above and below street level with numerous corridors and floors that connect different transport modes together.
The station was developed as a major transportation hub and expanded its facilities in 2017 to integrate the Taoyuan Airport MRT line. This expansion marked an important turning point in Taiwan's transport infrastructure by bringing air and rail services closer together.
The station serves as a central meeting place where travelers and local residents move through multiple levels of underground shops and passages.
The station can feel overwhelming due to its many levels and passages, so take time to get your bearings when you arrive. Signs are posted in English and Chinese, and helpful staff are stationed at major points throughout the building.
The station offers an in-terminal flight check-in service at basement level where passengers can drop off luggage before boarding the airport train. This convenience allows travelers to move through the system without carrying bags all the way to the gate.
