A secret place one hour away from Taipei - Xiongkong Tea Garden

#Taipei Attractions Can you imagine? There is a picturesque secret place hidden in Taipei - Xiongkong Tea Garden. It is located at No. 238 Zhulun Road, Sanxia District, nestled on the mountain of Sanxia. The journey was full of challenges. Some roads were narrow, and it was always a bit nerve-wracking when encountering oncoming vehicles. Turning around was also quite difficult, and I even wanted to give up at one point. However, once you reach the top, it's all worth it. Once you reach the top of the mountain, the view from the observation deck is breathtaking. The forest trail next to it is a great place to take photos. Being there doesn’t feel like you are in Taiwan at all. If you don’t mind the trouble, you can bring some props and lay out a floor mat to create exotic photos. It should be noted that the forest trail will not be open too late, so it is recommended to go there to walk and take photos as soon as you arrive. You must buy a ticket when entering the park, and the park staff will inform you of the park's movement routes. The park is very large, with many places to walk. There is no shuttle bus, so you have to walk the entire way, which will take about 2 to 3 hours. The light and shadows between 3:30 and 4:30 in the afternoon are extremely beautiful. If you want to capture the same effect, it is recommended to enter the park at 2:00. At this place at an altitude of 700 meters, the air is fresh and comfortable. Staying there for a few hours can greatly relax your body, mind and soul. You will be reluctant to leave. If you want to find a good place to relax up close, Xiongkong Tea Garden is definitely not to be missed.
