Taipei Main Station was built for transportation at 1891. With growing trasportation and amount of citizen, the building had been rebuilt and expanded for many times. The appearance with traditional Chinese-building style you saw now is the fourth version at 1989. p.s. all pics were from wikimedia
It offered operation for MRT, Taiwan Railways, and Taiwan High Speed Rail. Taipei Main Station had became the main transportation spot in Taipei city. However as you stepped into Taipei Main Station, you would realize how it was teased by its nickname "Taipei Main Station Maze". The under ground system of Taipei Main Station was so big and so complicated with complex signs and meaningless exit code. Anyway, welcome to taipei. You could lose your way in Taipei Main Station but you could visit lots of stores selling product with Taiwanese features.
Usually we were drifting off in the built undergroud. This time, let's go up and outside on the ground to see the appearance of Taipei Main Station.
Traditional cache was placed in the bush near Exit M4 or Exit K2. Check view from the cache point in the spoiler pictures. Be careful muggles. Throw it back into the bush after you log it. Hide the string well, please.
台北車站啟用於1891年，隨著年代變遷、人口與運輸成長，重建與拓展建築體數次。目前看到帶有中式傳統建築特色的外觀是第四代建築體，啟用於1989年。台北車站營運上可搭乘捷運系統、台鐵系統與高鐵系統，北車已經成為台北市最主要運輸轉運點。然而，當你踏入台北車站時，你就會瞭解為何它被暱稱為「北車迷宮」。台北車站地下系統相當巨大可綿延至各處，同時有著複雜的標示與無意義的出口代號。不管如何，歡迎來到台北。 你可能會在北車中迷失方向，但可以逛到很多販售具有台灣特色的商店。
通常，我們在地下系統中迷航，這次請走上地面、走出建築，觀賞一下北車的外觀。
