Hong Kong International Airport
Please visit the Hong Kong International Airport for information about flights and other travel arrangements.
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 you 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.
Taxis
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.
