Really? In my memory,toilets in most MRT stations in Tpe are located only available for the MRT pass holders..if you really have to use it w/o taking MRT, you still have to use 悠遊 card to pass the entrance…ok…try to find out when I am in Tpe..

Well…it’s ridiculous to pay for the public toilets in TWN, our legislators fought for this issue before that someone who had nature call but didn’t want to take the MRT still have to pay is unreasonable…

Anonymous – it depends where you go. Most stations I know in Taipei have the public toilets outside and not in the paid zone. It is a wonderful contribution to the city, especially for tourists, and I can’t recall seeing that in many of the other subways across the world (Hong Kong doesn’t have that at all, for example).

One thing worth mentioning is that unlike the Taipei MRT which the toilet is located within the closed area only available for the passenger/pass holder, the Kaohsiung MRT provides the public toilet for everyone…very humane design~

dary – Yep, it does. It changes the whole “flow” (qi?) of the city. It’s not only faster commute, but less traffic, less pollution, airconditioned underground stations with public toilets and tourist info centers accessible everywhere. It revolutionizes the city.

ye….!!
two months ago i also tried the KMRT in kaohsiung
that’s really cool because u know , taking a bus to any attraction spots in Taiwan is not convenient at all, of course including kaohsing. but now we have one more choice, that is KMRT, that really makes travelling easier…haha
