  • The history of Taipei's Metro systems (Taipei Metro, Taoyuan Metro, and New Taipei Metro) from 1996 to 2021 and their future expansion plans up to 2030 are shown in this animation.
    Note on station numbers
    The official station count of Taipei Metro is 131 as of 2021 which counts interchange stations multiple times, once for each line with exception of 4 stations (Ximen, Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, Guting and Dongmen which provides cross-platform interchange and only counted once),
    For this video, interchange stations are only counted once with exception of 2 stations (Banqiao and Xinpu - Xinpu Minsheng which require passengers to leave paid area for interchange)
    Interchange stations between different operators are recounted for each operator.

    I was born and raised in America but my parents are Taiwanese and so I’ve gone to Taipei numerous times over the years: every 1.5-2.5 years, starting with my first trip for my grandparents to see me at 5 months old. The oldest metro map I remember was from 2005 when I was actually finally old enough to understand and remember them, and since then every time we go back, we always like to see how the metro map has changed, but over the years I’ve forgotten how it looked like at certain times. This video has definitely brought back memories. Thank you!

    Revising : (sorry for my poor English)
    0:17 - The Official Traditional Chinese name of Taipei Zoo station should be 動物園 (Zoo), without the 臺北 (Taipei) word.
    0:25 - The English name of Tamsui station in 1997 should be Tamshui, they change the name to Danshui in 2003 first and then change it to Tamsui in 2011, while its Chinese name remains the same.
    1:41 - When Neihu Line (內湖線) opened in 2009, they abbreviated Muzha-Neihu Line as "Zha-hu Line" (柵湖線). However some people think the abbrieviation to be inelegant due to its pronouncement which is same as a term in mahjong which means "Fake it to win the game". They change the official name to Wenhu Line (文湖線) at last.
    Actually this video includes three different systems of subway/metro, which consists Taipei Metro (台北捷運), New Taipei Metro (新北捷運), and Taoyuan Metro (桃園捷運). They are owned and operated by three different city but are all situated in Greater Taipei Area (includes Taipei, Xinbei, Keelung, Taoyuan).

      Thanks for the info! Yes! Romanization of almost all station names (not just Tamsui) changed throughout years so I struggled a little to figure out which stations are which (e.g. Hsin Peitou→Xinbeitou, Chichang→Qizhang, Hsintien→Xindian etc.)

      “Taipei, Xinbei, Keelung, Taoyuan” in the last line of the text should be “Taipei, New Taipei, Keelung, Taoyuan”.
      The official name of 新北 is “New Taipei” instead of “Xinbei” (hanyu pinyin) or “Hsinpei” (wade-giles)

      @maxxiong 2 роки тому +1

      ​@@hzpj TBH one could also argue on the contrary that the old system creates ambiguities, where your example Chichang can be misread completely as pinyin. Pinyin does have the issue though of iu and ui getting mispronounced all the time.

    Update October 2022: the extension of the red line beyond Xiangshan apparently won't be complete until late 2023. Keelung is also planning to build a metro that will connect to both blue lines. And in Taoyuan, there is an orange and a brown line planned and the green is also expected to loop around to the end of the purple line.

      Bannan Line is BL for blue.
      Tamsui-Xinyi Line is R for red.
      Danhai LRT is V because of vermilion.
