From International Taiwan Taoyuan Airport:There is an airport bus(AM 6:00 -12:30 everyday) to World Scholar House from Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport called 'EverGreen Bus' run by Eva Air, information available at the airport information desk. A free city map is also provided at the center.It will take about 1 hour to get to the city. The price is NT$135. Please get off at the 10th stop (Chang-an East Road, Section 2), in front of Evergreen Laurel Hotel next to a 7-Eleven store. World Scholar House (Song Jiang Road, Lane 38, No.2, 8F) is about a 2 minute walk south(towards the temporarily road construction), down the opposite side of the street. Turn right on lane 38. We are in the first building to the left, on the 8th floor. The Hostel is marked on the buzzer board by the door.Don't forget to pick up a free map of Taiwan at the airport information center! PS. Late arrivals before 2:30AM, please check with other airport buses, then take a taxi to the hostel after getting into Taipei city.

Located Near

The world scholar house is in the center of Taipei, so attractions and distractions are not hard to find. Locally, there are a number of interesting markets within walking distance, notably the Jianguo Jade market, the Liaoning night market and the Guanghua electronics market. A five minute walk to the MRT station puts you in touch with everything Taipei has to offer, from the tallest building in the world to the Beitou outdoor hot springs and of course the unmissable National Palace Museum with its unrivaled collection of Chinese cultural treasures.Those with a different kind of culture in mind will find that we are a very cheap taxi ride to and from a number of lively nightlife venues.
