Scenic viewing that is really cheap!! Now there is the addition of the diamond carriage which has a clear bottom for the added view. Definitely worth visiting if you're in Taipei.

Awesome ride we had a glass bottom car.Really enjoyed the ride and it was very well organized very good value for money.
We were prepared to wait and queue but to our surprise, we only had to wait for 5-10 min for our turn to sit in a crystal cabin! The gondola tickets are very cheap and it's so easy to use the Easy card for payment too. The crystal cabin does not come at extra cost, so it's the same price...

It is quite hard to find the path to where I want to go when I reach the top station, just follow the people. After a tiring long walk, there is lots of restaurant and cafe nearby, go...
