Arrival Information
[From CKS Int'l Airport to Academia Sinica]



 

If pre-arranged beforehand (with Henry Wong, for instance) ,
someone will wait at the Arrival Lobby of the CKS International Airport
with the name of visitor on a cardboard.
The
chauffeur will take the visitor directly to AS.

For very dramatic and unexpected schedule changes,
visitors can come to AS on their own :
1. Take the Airport Shuttle Bus to "Taipei City Hyatt Hotel"
    (140 NTD per person ; 1 hr)
2. Take a taxi from Hyatt Hotel to AS (250 NTD ; 20 min).
    Show the taxi driver the AS map download-able
    from our Web-site listed below (asmap.gif), and ask for -
    #20 for "Activity Center" ,
   or - #33 for "Institute of Physics"   .

Exchange Rate is roughly :: 1 USD == 34.5 NTD (New Taiwan Dollar) .
   Best to get some cash at the Airport.
