&lt;p>The 2025 Taiwan THz Summer Workshop will take place at National Yang Ming Chiao Tung University in Hsinchu, Taiwan, from June 26th to 28th, 2025. This workshop series originated in 2023 at National Tsing Hua University, and since then, it has been held five times, demonstrating a growing interest in the field. These workshops are designed to foster discussions on the latest developments and future directions in terahertz (THz) science and technology, as well as their applications across various disciplines. Topics covered will include cutting-edge research in experimental and theoretical approaches related to devices, spectroscopy, imaging, ultrafast phenomena, and communications. Furthermore, the workshop will explore applications from biology, chemistry, physics, material science, and electrical engineering. We invite researchers, practitioners, and students to engage in meaningful discussions and collaborate on innovative ideas during this exciting event.&lt;/p>

&lt;p>楊尚樺教授發起的Taiwan THz workshop，這次輪到鄭宇翔在台大舉辦，時間為12/19(暫定早上10點到下午3點，可參加半場，但鼓勵全程參加)，地點為台大電機二館142室，歡迎大家一起來討論THz相關研究，跟老朋友當面聊，也認識新朋友。報名網址如下，希望來參加的人可以準備10分鐘的研究介紹(並非強制)，若方便可以先提供講題。有其他疑問都可以回信問我，謝謝。&lt;/p>
&lt;p>The Taiwan THz workshop initiated by Professor Yang Shanghua is being organized by Yu-Hsiang Cheng at National Taiwan University this time. The event is scheduled for December 19 (tentatively from 10 AM to 3 PM; you can attend for half the time, but full attendance is encouraged). It will be held in Room 142 of the Electrical Engineering Building 2 at NTU. Everyone is welcome to come discuss THz-related research, chat with old friends, and meet new ones. The registration link is below. I hope those who plan to attend can prepare a 10-minute research presentation (which is not mandatory), and if convenient, please provide your topic in advance. If you have any other questions, feel free to reply to me. Thank you&lt;/p>

&lt;h2 id="taiwan-metro-and-buses">Taiwan Metro and buses&lt;/h2>
&lt;p>Taiwan has a public transport card called &amp;ldquo;EasyCard&amp;rdquo; and you can buy it from about 90% of convenience stores in Taiwan. They also come in the interesting designs from popular anime series. &lt;strong>Buses&lt;/strong> in Taiwan have unreliable timings, and &lt;strong>DO NOT RELY&lt;/strong> on google maps timings for local buses! This is has about a 50% chance of being wrong by 30mins.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>Kaohsiung metro accepts contactless payment from VISA/Mastercard as well, so you don&amp;rsquo;t need an EasyCard but no other public transport accepts this (I think).&lt;/p>
&lt;h2 id="taiwan-hsr">Taiwan HSR&lt;/h2>
&lt;p>Taiwan&amp;rsquo;s High-Speed-Rail (HSR) is quite similar to Japan&amp;rsquo;s Shinkansen, but smaller and thus less complicated. The trains are literally the Shinkansen 700 Series modified for Taiwan&amp;rsquo;s climate and safety regulations. Tickets can be bought online by downloading the T-Express App with info &lt;a href="https://en.thsrc.com.tw/ArticleContent/082fe624-b153-43d5-8a17-4be94132633b" target="_blank" rel="noopener">here&lt;/a>. Pre-booked tickets will guarantee a seat, whereas non-reserved seats will not and you might have to stand (there are non-reserved train cars for this type of ticket). You can also just go to the ticket counter to buy a ticket, and then you get a paper ticket which might be easier for your reimbursement later (otherwise you get a PDF invoice showing price, location and time).&lt;/p>
&lt;h2 id="taxiuber">Taxi/UBER&lt;/h2>
&lt;p>Some Taiwan taxi&amp;rsquo;s accept VISA/Mastercard, but they will not if they are too old. Also, there is UBER service available all over Taiwan and that is quite convenient but I have never had any luck using the &amp;ldquo;UBER Taxi&amp;rdquo; option, they never arrive&amp;hellip; The &amp;ldquo;UBER Eco&amp;rdquo; always arrives in good time.&lt;/p>
&lt;h1 id="hotel-information">Hotel information&lt;/h1>
&lt;p>For hotels in Kaohsiung, please be close to the Red and Orange metro lines, the light green line is a light-rail system not metro. Taiwan has built its infrastructure for scooters, hence Kaohsiung&amp;rsquo;s areas away from the Red and Orange metro lines most likely have no pedestrian walkways, which can be a bit hectic&amp;hellip;&lt;/p>

It was good but about 10 mins walk to the metro on normal pedestrian paths.&lt;/p>
&lt;p>&lt;a href="https://seasbay.com.tw/#" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Siziwan Sunset Beach resort&lt;/a> All the locals say it is really good, but a bit overpriced. And the restaurant is really good but you can only buy a set meal there which costs above 600NTD which is double the price of most restaurants in Kaohsiung, but it has a starter, side dishes, main, dessert and Chinese style soup. It is far from the city though.&lt;/p>
