The best way to travel around in Taiwan is to take the scooter. Second hand scooter shops can be found everywhere in Taiwan. They come in 50cc to 250cc models. Here¡¦s an approximate price range for each type of scooter.

100 cc

NT$ 15,000 to NT$ 25,000

50 cc

Gasoline/Petrol in Taiwan costs NT$ 18 to NT$ 20 per liter.  Mileage is 20 to 30 kilometers per liter.

 

A bicycle is a cheaper alternative to the scooter.  Mountain bikes can be bought in supermarkets and bike shops.  A basic mountain bike costs around NT$ 3,000.

 

If you prefer public transport, traveling by bus and train is relatively cheap.  To date, Taipei City is the only place in Taiwan that has an MRT system.  Unless it¡¦s an emergency, taking the taxi is not advisable as it is too expensive.  In certain counties, taxis don't even have meters.  You will need to haggle the price with the driver before you let him/her take you to your destination.

Taipei City's MRT system is operated by the Taipei Rapid Transit Corporation.  Operation of the first line began in 1996.  Today, there are six lines in operation with more stations being constructed.  Kaohsiung City and Taichung City also plans to construct their own MRT system.

The Taiwan Railway System was first built in 1887 by Liu Min-Chuan, an official of the Ch'ing Dynasty.  In 1891, the Keelung to Taipei stations went into operation for the first time.  In 1894, Taiwan was ceded to Japan.  In order to exploit the natural resources of the island, the Japanese expanded the railway system using materials from dismantled domestic lines that were shipped to Taiwan.

After the Japanese occupation, the railway system was trimmed and extended according to priorities.  Today, the railway system has seen many changes and remains the most reliable mode of transport in Taiwan.  Through the internet, train schedules can be viewed and tickets can be booked.
