Taoyuan City Councilor Ling Taojin mentioned during the General Municipal Question of the Council that in the past, when transiting from South Korea to the United States, due to the long transit time, he especially visited Busan City for sightseeing. He said that Taoyuan is the capital of the country, with 6.6 million transit passengers every year, and should vigorously Develop transit tourism; in this regard, Mayor Zhang Shanzheng explained that the city government has conducted statistics and found that although there were 6.6 million transit passengers, only 130,000 people stayed for more than 6 hours. To develop transit tourism, we must try to increase the number of stays and have negotiated with relevant units.

Zhang Shanzheng said that when he returned to Taiwan from the United States, he transited in Seoul, South Korea (now known as Seoul). The plane arrived at the airport during the day and took off again at night. The airline hosted a one-day tour of Seoul, and everyone had a great time. To develop transit tourism in Taoyuan, the first task is to try to increase the stay time and design different itineraries for transit passengers to take one-day tours. The city government has proposed ideas to the Tourism Administration of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications, and is also negotiating with airlines and airport companies.
