If you refer to Taizhou in Zhejiang Provence, then you can take a bullet train there, and it takes about 4h 30 minutes, CNY364 for a first class seat, CNY254 for a second one.
If you refer to Taizhou in Jiangsu Province, then you are also suggested to take a bullet train, but you need a transfer at Nanjing first. And the bullet train to Nanjing South takes about 6 hours and CNY613.5 for a first class seat, CNY398.5 or a second one. After arrival on Nanjing South, you need to take metro line 1 to Nanjing Station. Then you can take a bullet train to Taizhou, and it takes about 1h 30 minutes, CNY96 for a first class seat, CNY61.5 for a second one.
