You can go directly to the Stiletto Chapel by bus!"Taiwan Tourist Shuttle—Salt Coast Line" will begin stopping at the Stiletto Chapel in Budai starting June 1st. There are bus stops at both the Chiayi HSR Station and the Chiayi Transfer Station where you can board directly for the Stiletto Chapel; in addition, holiday departure times have been adjusted to later hours, so you don’t have to wake up as early and can enjoy a more relaxed trip after a good night’s sleep.

The original Budai Tourist Center bus stop has been relocated. Since the tourist center has now been converted into a hotel and is nearly 1 kilometer away from the Stiletto Chapel, to reduce walking time for visitors, the Budai Tourist Center stop has been moved to Zhongshan Road about 300 meters from the Stiletto Chapel stop (opposite Wusheng Temple), making it more convenient for visitors to access the entire Stiletto Chapel area and the Budai Fishing Port Market. Additionally, the Xiantian Temple return bus stop (on the Dongshi Fisherman's Wharf route toward Highway 61) has been moved to the parking lot behind Xiantian Temple.

Holiday departure schedules have also been adjusted. Buses departing from the Chiayi Transfer Station on holidays will now leave at 10:10 and 15:10, while return buses from the Beimen Visitor Center on holidays will depart at 12:30 and 16:50. This allows travelers to avoid waking up early on holidays, enjoy a relaxed bus trip, and also easily connect from the high-speed rail.

The Taiwan Tourist Shuttle—Salt Coast Line serves the following stops: Chiayi Transfer Station, Chiayi HSR Station, National Palace Museum Southern Branch, Xiantian Temple, Dongshi Fisherman's Wharf, Stiletto Chapel, Haomeili, Nanxiang Divine Kingdom, and Beimen Visitor Center.
