Geocache Description:


South Port Station (Nangang Station) is a major railway station located in Nangang, Taipei,Taiwan, parallel to Zhongxiao East Road. The station serves several modes of public transportation, including the bus system,Taiwan Railway Administration, and Taipei Metro (Nangang Line). The station will also be the future terminus of the Taiwan High Speed Rail and is currently under construction. Nangang Station was originally built by the Japanese during Japanese rule of Taiwan in 1899 to support local industries and the growing population.

A newly built multipurpose complex consisting of business center, hotel and shopping mall sits on top of three stations (subway, railway, and high speed train). This century old station is not only transforming the transportation needs of the locals, but the everyday life of surrounding suburbs.

The cache is hidden indoor, but it is easier to search from outside of the building. Cache is a micro magnetic hidden about the height between your thigh and waist. Please refer to the two spoiler photos.
