Taipei Travel guide
The closest international airport to Taipei is Taoyuan Airport, located at about 30 kilometers from the city. The airport is a hub for China Air, and it is the country’s busiest airport. There are connections to many major cities not only in Asia, but on other continents as well. Taoyuan serves mostly international flights, but it covers a few destinations on mainland China, such as Shanghai, Beijing and Shenzhen. If you are already in China, you should probably check out the flight schedule of Songshan Airport, Taipei’s domestic airport, which has connections with Xiamen, Shantou and other cities from the island and the mainland.
