Gensou Land's* most innovative technological advance in recent times would have to be these "Dimensional Conversion Ships". Thanks to exchanges with a certain underground civilization, moving through space and dimensions via mechanical technology has become a reality in Gensou Land, even without specialized magical engineers. It has become possible to move large quantities of people and goods. Even without magicians, it has become possible to travel to other worlds easily, and commerce, tourism, and cultural exchange between these parallel worlds have all flourished tremendously. 幻想世界, "Gensou Sekai". Not quite the same as "Gensoukyou", but I'm not sure if I should simply render it "Fantasy Land" either.

In the city, taxis and the subway are the basic means.
Ships also travel from island to island. Almost all the demon types can fly, so many people travel under their own power.

As a celebrity, Miss Patchy naturally gets a First Class cabin.
Dimensional conversion ships interfere greatly in vast, open spaces, and so are restricted to traveling only in specifically opened areas. Also, as there is a ban on sailing through city airspace, harbors are drilled out of the cliff faces on islands' undersides. Incidentally, Gensokyo's port is a fair distance from the old capital of Scarlet Devil City—about an hour and a half by bullet train.
Furthermore, according to some individuals, it is possible to transport instantly via teleportation magic, but as this requires a great amount of magic and effort, magicians almost never use it, save for some professions and situations involving urgency.
