Taipei MRT (Mass Rapid Transit) System
The Taipei MRT is an efficient and convenient public transportation system that covers most of the city and its suburbs, making it an ideal way to travel around Taipei. Each registered participant will receive a conference-provided EasyCard, which can be used for travel on the Taoyuan Airport MRT, Taipei MRT, and city buses.
