Located southeast of Taipei, Wenshan is not only home to the zoo but also boasts diverse mountainous terrain, numerous tea gardens and teahouses, as well as a romantic million-dollar city night view. It's a great place to go for a walk and unwind. Why not take your family there this weekend?

The Tea Aroma Circular Trail connects multiple themed trails, offering more flexibility for travelers. Along the way, you can experience unique spots such as century-old camphor trees, a cypress tree sea, tea tree terraces, and pothole stream beds, as well as facilities like the Skywalk, Triangle Suspension Bridge, child-friendly seats, and rural-themed walls. It also links up recreational areas such as the Tea Exhibition Center and the Little Skywalk. One trip will allow you to fully enjoy the beautiful mountains, waters, and rich local culture of Maokong.

The Camphor Tree Trail is about 1.1 kilometers long and is a gentle trail. Every spring and autumn, abandoned farmland along the trail, covering an area of 1.5 hectares, is planted with blue lupine and cosmos as fallow crops. When the flowers are in full bloom, it’s like laying a colorful and beautiful carpet on the Camphor Tree Trail.

Taipei Maokong is one of the most popular night spots for students. In addition to enjoying the night view and having tea and conversation here, it is also a favorite gathering spot for many foreign tourists.

In addition to enjoying the natural beauty of Maokong, taking the Maokong Gondola allows you to taste Tieguanyin tea and enjoy local mountain delicacies on the mountain, making for a very relaxing experience. The gondola also features a crystal cabin — adventurous travelers can take on the challenge and feel the thrill of being 30 meters above the ground.
