Getting to the conference venue
-
Take a taxi in Taipei:
It is the fast way (about 20min without traffic from most places in Taipei), runs according to meter, and will cost around 400 New Taiwan dollars. Show the taxi driver the following paragraph:
中央研究院 人文社會科學館
台北市南港區研究院路2段128號
Academia Sinica, Humanities and Social Sciences Building
128 Section 2 Academia Road, Taipei
Ask the taxi driver to enter the campus through the main gate. After passing through that gate, go straight even after you cross the little bridge. You want to turn left at the little temple; the HSSB will be on your right (if you are looking for the Activities Center, turn left after the little bridge, and look to your left). -

Take the Taipei's Metro Rapid Transit Blue Line or Brown Line to Nangang Exhibition Center (南港展覽館) station. You can take a taxi or a bus (number 205, 212, 276, 306, 620, or 645) on Academia Road to Academia Sinica, or walk down Academia Road from there (25-30 minutes). -

Take the Blue Line or Taiwan High-Speed Rail or the TRA (Taiwan Railways Agency) to Nangang Station (南港站) then take a bus on Zhongxiao East Road (number 212 Express, 270, or Blue 25) to Academia Sinica. This is also what you do from the Green World Nangang Hotel. -
