## HSR services

Except for Service 583 and 598, all HSR services call at this station. The first two southbound trains in the day are 803 (stops at all stations) at 06:26 and 203 (Taipei-Banqiao-Taichung-Chiayi-Tainan-Zuoying) at 06:30. Service 203 is the only southbound train of the day that departs from Taipei Station instead of [Nangang station](/source/Nangang_station). Although Service 203 departs four minutes after Service 803, passengers traveling to major cities such as [Taichung](/source/Taichung), [Tainan](/source/Tainan), and [Kaohsiung](/source/Kaohsiung) will save time taking Train No. 203, while Service 803 is more suitable for those traveling to nearby cities such as [Taoyuan](/source/Taoyuan%2C_Taiwan) or [Hsinchu](/source/Hsinchu).

## Around the station

## History

Taipei station in 1914

The old Taipei station in 1948

The first rail station in Taipei was completed in [Twatutia](/source/Twatutia) in 1891, during [Qing rule](/source/Taiwan_under_Qing_rule), when the railway to [Keelung](/source/Keelung) was opened for service.[17][18] Initially, a temporary station was built while a permanent station was constructed in 1897, during [Japanese rule](/source/Taiwan_under_Japanese_rule) (1895–1945). In 1901, the station was located to the east of its current site. It was rebuilt in 1940 to accommodate growing passenger traffic.

To alleviate traffic congestion caused by railroad crossings in downtown Taipei, an underground railway [tunnel](/source/Tunnel) between Huashan and [Wanhua](/source/Wanhua_District) was built along with the present station building as part of the [Taipei Railway Underground Project](/source/Taipei_Railway_Underground_Project).[19] When the underground system was completed on 2 September 1989, railway service was moved to the newly completed building (completed on 5 September 1989) and the old building as well as a temporary station were demolished.

The current station was further expanded with the opening of the [Taipei Metro](/source/Taipei_Metro). The metro station is connected to the basement of the railway station and opened to passenger traffic in 1997 to the [Tamsui–Xinyi line](/source/Tamsui%E2%80%93Xinyi_line). It became a massive transfer hub with the opening of the [Bannan Line](/source/Bannan_Line) in 1999. Extensive underground malls now exist at the front and back of the station,[20] which emulate those found in [Tokyo](/source/Tokyo) and [Osaka](/source/Osaka), [Japan](/source/Japan). The station also became a terminus for [Taiwan High Speed Rail](/source/Taiwan_High_Speed_Rail) trains when the network began service in 2007.

The Taipei Main Station was a site of the [2025 Taipei stabbings](/source/2025_Taipei_stabbings).[21]

### Ongoing developments

Taipei station and the area surrounding it have been undergoing renovation since 2005. Japanese architect [Fumihiko Maki](/source/Fumihiko_Maki) was chosen to design two skyscrapers that will surround the railroad station.[22] Maki will also oversee the renovation of Taipei station. The height of the taller tower will be 76 stories, whereas the shorter tower will be 56 stories.[23] The two skyscrapers will be constructed on empty parcels found adjacent to Taipei station, above the [Taoyuan Airport MRT](/source/Taiwan_Taoyuan_International_Airport_Access_MRT_System) station.

The station interior underwent renovation work from February to October 2011.[24] Basement restrooms were renovated, the basement and first floor preparations for additional Breeze Plaza retail space began, the large ticket office in the first floor lobby was removed, and additional retail space was allocated.[24] In addition, the flooring on the first floor was completely replaced, fire and evacuation regulations were improved, and solar panels will be installed on the station roof.[24]
