The only trouble visiting the museum and the park is transportation. The Beinan Cultural Park is 20 minutes by car from the museum. There is no public transportation to connect the two places and the only means of transportation is taxi. Beware of taxis in Taitung.
No taxi in Taitung charges according to the meter, so you have to bargain for a price with the driver before taking the ride. For a ride between the park and the museum, don't pay more than NT$200.
For your information:
Beinan Cultural Park is located within walking distance of the new Taitung train station at 200 Cultural Park Road and can be reached by calling (089) 233466.
