  A must do when in Taipei. Beautiful views of the city and mountain tea farms. Great selection of tea houses and street vendors when you reach the top.

  Maokong Gondola was originally built as a means to encourage tourists to learn about Taiwan teas and bring commerce to a much neglected and rural section of South Western Taipei. It definitely succeeded in both. The gondola provides awesome views of New Taipei City, and if it's a clear day (which is and isn't often), you can actually see views of Taipei City. Taipei 101 is pretty visible even through overcast skies. Once you get to the top, take in the views at one of the local tea cafes, where they also serve tea infused meals, or desserts if you aren't hungry. You can hike up to the top gondola area if you know the routes to take, or from any of the other way stations on the way there. If you're afraid of heights, skip the glass bottom experience. It also makes no sense to pay extra at night. You can use Easypass, and it does cost more than your MRT ride, but it is kind of a once in a lifetime experience.

  Fun to ride while enjoying nature view, and taipei 101 on a distant view.

  Fun and a little exciting (especially when the gondola stops randomly). I recommend planning to board before sunset, and taking a night ride on your return for great views. There are some affordable restaurants with great views nearby Maokong station.
