Wulai

We intend to go Wulai, does anyone know which MRT station should we alight or which bus can get us there from Taipei main station?





Wulai


Hi Lynn,





Take the MRT train to Sindian. Once you alight, exit the station and on your right you see the yellow tourist booth. Just behind that booth is a bus stop. Wait for a bus that reads Wulai. It takes about an hour to travel up the mountain to Wulai.





I went there for the hotspring. There are lotsa of them over there. Some posh and WOW! , while some are basic ones in an enclosed room. It all depends on your budget and preference. Cheers!

I plan to go wulai too and book a private hotspring. Since i book a private room, will there stop me from bringin my baby (%26lt; 1 year old) in? Any extra charge for kid?




I dont think they will charge for the baby.




How long does it take to Wulai? Do I have to take a railway train via taipei main station?
