What's the cheapest way to travel to Taiwan Province Province? I am a poor student.

At present, the most economical way to get from the mainland to Taiwan Province Province is to take the "Strait" passenger ship from Pingtan, Fujian Province to Taichung, Taiwan Province Province. The voyage takes about 3.5 hours (downwind+through train), and the economy class one-way fare is 600 yuan RMB, but you may not get it because there are too many people waiting in line to buy tickets. However, Taichung Port is far from the urban area and there is no public transportation. If you want to take a taxi (take a D), you have to pay 700 yuan New Taiwan Dollar (equivalent to about RMB 150).

Apart from youth hostels, the cheapest hotels in Taiwan Province Province cost NT$ 600 ~ 700 yuan per night (equivalent to about RMB 150, but it can't meet the demand, and the average accommodation per night is between RMB 250 ~ 500 yuan), which does not include the transportation expenses from your home to Pingtan, the transportation expenses in Taiwan Province Province, the three meals in Taiwan Province Province, and the pass and entry permit. Besides, I think you should know that the prices in Taiwan Province Province (especially Taibei) are the highest in Asia. If you want to see exhibitions, go shopping and visit scenic spots, you have to pay for tickets. Are you willing to come all the way to Taiwan Province Province only to lament the high consumption? !

I suggest you be pragmatic, save more money, and save at least seven or eight thousand RMB before you leave, so as not to go home without adequate preparation.
