What travelers are saying
- chaosandcandy145 contributionsWe really enjoyed walking through the Sand Sculptures at the Festival. It's amazing to see how detailed the works of art can be. We visited during the morning on a Sunday and found that it was relatively uncrowded.Written July 25, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LitapixChatan-cho, Japan43 contributionsMiniatures are impressive. I bought tiny souvenirs in the gift shop for coworkers. I was more impressed by the gift shop than anything else. Spent about an hour here. The landmark minis were my favorites.Written January 24, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- SrikanthToronto, Canada54 contributionsThe huge memorial hall atop a huge stair case was centrally placed with beautiful flowered garden around. Nice to visit and know some history and pay some respects.

It's also known as the Nangang District Hiking Trail. The Chinese name is Xiang Shan, or Elephant Mountain. The hike is around a mile (1.5 km). It's convenient to get to, it's not far from Taipei 101, Taiwan's tallest building. Just take the MRT Red Line to the terminus -- Xiangshan Station -- and take exit 2. The Trail provides a good view of Taipei City. and Taipei 101,Written January 24, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Lianne RKaohsiung, Taiwan16 contributionsI did this beautiful hike with a friend around 4.00 p.m, the trail was mostly well maintained with a lot of resting spots on the way, the views were stunning, I went back over trail number 4. I would recommend to bring a head lantern if you would like to go with sunset. Doing trail 4 and 5 took about 3 hours. The trail is physically challenging. And getting to the beginning of the trail and returning from the end to a bus stop can be quite difficult because they are far away. But overall it was a great experience and I would recommend it!Written October 18, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- liucy752Taipei, Taiwan990 contributionsThis is the most famous Temple in Taipei.
Dating back to 1738, this temple was originally a Buddhist temple. It was dedicated to Guanyin (觀世音, Avalokiteśvara, one of the Buddhist bodhisattva), which is a branch spirit from Guanyin of the Lungshan Temple at Jin-Jiang county, Fujian province (福建省晉江縣). Then it was named after its root temple.
Destroyed and rebuilt for several times, the temple now worships gods of three religions: Buddhist, Taoist and Ruism (Confucianism).
To improve air quality and to better protect the environment, Taiwan started a movement to encourage temples to ban incense burning since 2014.
There is no incense in this temple. Great!!.Written November 20, 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There's a large area just to stroll. There is a large playground for children, where they can run and play. Da'an Forest Park has a number of special features, including banyan trees, bamboo groves and a lake. The lake attracts a large variety of waterbirds and photographers waiting patiently to get that special shot. Getting to the park is easy -- there's an MRT station, and an underground car park.Written June 3, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Jeffry bEssendon, Australia10,985 contributionsHalf an hour by bus or taxi from downtown Taipei will take you to this splendid park, which is open all year round. Yangmingshan was known as "Grass Mountain" when US forces were stationed in Taipei. The park is famous for its cherry trees, which bloom in early spring. Most of the park is in a natural state. Qixing Mountain, known in Chinese as Seven Star Mountain, is a dormant volcano. It is one of the tallest mountains in northern Taiwan. The view from the top is impressive.Written June 26, 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
