 Taxi |
This is the most popular way for foreigners to get around, and it is very affordable. In October 2011 the starting charge was raised to ¥10 for the first 2.6 kilometers, or about 1.6 miles. After that is ¥2.6 for each kilometer. No fuel surcharge is added anymore, except for some taxis that haven"t been upgraded and still start at ¥7 plus the old ¥2 fuel surcharge. A 50% surcharge is automatically added when the trip reaches 35 kilometers. A few of them also accepts Yang Cheng Tong as payment, but it is not preferred by the drivers. The taxi hotline is 96900. This comes in handy if you forget your valuables in a taxi.Save your receipt because it contains the taxi"s identification number. |
