Public Transportation:
Public transportation in Hong Kong is very
efficient, and getting to and from HKUST by taxi, the MTR metro, or bus is
easy, as is accessibility by car. The map
shows the main routes connecting Kowloon
and Hong Kong island to our campus.
The main gate of the campus features a large and
easily recognizable sign with the university's name written in both English
and Chinese. Past the main gate, a gently sloping driveway leads to the
entrance piazza with a large red sundial at its center.
MTR
The Mass Transit Railway (MTR) is an underground subway (metro) system
serving Hong Kong island, Kowloon,
and the airport. The MTR is the easiest way for visitors to get around Hong Kong. Tickets can be purchased from machines in the
stations on a trip-by-trip basis or you can purchase multi-use Octopus cards
at MTR ticket windows.
The Choi Hung, Lam Tin and Hang Hau MTR stations are the closest to
the University, and you can board a bus or taxi (details below) to the main
entrance of HKUST.
Taxi
Taxis provide the simplest way to get to the University, and are
easily available at any MTR station, from hotels and most areas of Hong Kong. From the airport, you can take a taxi at the
airport taxi stand and expect to pay approximately HK$380 (about US$49) for
the journey. Note that only HK dollars will be accepted by your driver.
Print a copy of this page and the map and bring it with you in case
you need to show the route or University name and address in Chinese to the
taxi driver. The taxi drop-off point on campus is near the red sundial. For
on-campus housing destinations, ask the security guard at the main gate to
give the taxi driver directions.
