 definitely useful May 24, 2010
T. J. Schaefer
This map was quite useful for finding my way around Taipei. It includes three maps at varying levels of detail, plus a diagram of the metro (MRT). The most detailed map covers an area of 13.2 by 10.0 km, and shows all streets and lanes. The least detailed shows northern Taiwan as far south as Hsinchu City in a space of 7 by 11 inches.
In addition to English (romanized) names, the names of major streets and cities and districts are shown in Chinese too. Personally I would have liked for more items to be identified in both forms, as it is often impossible to know how a name should be pronounced from the romanized spelling alone.
The map includes an index of major streets, buildings and places.
The map has an attached cardboard cover (4.25 by 10.25 inches) which can be annoying if you were hoping to fold it up and put it in your pocket.
The MRT map may be out of date by the time you get it, because new lines continue to be added. Check online at the Taipei Metro web site for the up-to-date map.

Show the areas around Taipei Metro, Route and stations of MRT, I found the map helpful. However, the colors could be a bit more distinquished one from the others to make reading easier.
