Maokong Gondola - Great Day Trip From Taipei Taiwan - Views, Tea, Temples
The Maokong Gondola is a great way to get out of the confines of the city for an afternoon and enjoy the serine surroundings of Maokong.
Combining this with a trip to the zoo or simply spending the entire day in the mountains, is a day well spent!
With two stations right next to the Taipei Zoo, the Maokong Gondola is a fantastic cable car ride which terminates at Maokong, a mountainside township known for producing some of the best tea in Taiwan.
The gondola also stops at Zhinan Temple, a beautiful temple set on the mountainside. Both Zhinan and Maokong offer unparalleled views of the city of Taipei.
Zhinan Temple, also known as Xiangong Temple, combines Daoism, Buddism and Confucianism, and is one of the most sacred Daoist temples in Taiwan.
At the top of the mountain you can hike the trails, see the tea plantations and eventually reach Zhangshan Temple.
The weather was rainy on the day I went but I would still recommend going. Take the crystal cabin gondola if possible for 360 degree views of the ride up.
Enjoy the video!
