All Moments About Yangmingshan National Park
Qingtian Gang in Yangmingshan, Taipei
You can take bus S15 from Jiantan MRT Station directly to Qingtian Gang. In the summer, the temperature at Qingtian Gang in the morning is 5 to 6 degrees lower than in the city, making it very cool and pleasant.
The Qingtian Gang grassland is one of the most beautiful areas in Yangmingshan. The vast, flat grassland combined with easy-to-walk wooden paths makes it suitable for all ages. You can closely observe the ecology of the free-roaming water buffaloes at Qingtian Gang and enjoy a distant view of Taipei City. Upon arriving at Qingtian Gang, your mood will instantly brighten.
If you don't want to take the bus back directly, you can hike to Lengshuikeng or Jyuansi Waterfall to absorb some phytoncides. Lengshuikeng is closer, and on the way, you will pass through the Jingshan Suspension Bridge and a small white pool called Milk Lake, which is also a small attraction in Yangmingshan. At Lengshuikeng, there are free hot springs to relieve fatigue, or you can just soak your feet to ease soreness.
📍Lengshuikeng Address: No. 175, Lane 101, Jingshan Road, Shilin District, Taipei City
📍Qingtian Gang Address: No. 246, Lane 101, Jingshan Road, Shilin District, Taipei City

One of the The Easiest Hiking Trails in Yangmingshan
Yangmingshan National Park, located in northern Taiwan near Taipei, is renowned for its beautiful scenery and diverse flora. There are numerous hiking trails in Yangmingshan of varying difficulty levels. I chose Qingtiangang Circular Trail, one of the easiest hiking trails to bring my two kids for a hike. The circular trail starts at Lingtouyan land god temple at Qingtiangang, passing Qingtiangang Grassland, Yangmingshan Ranch and leads back to the land god temple. The trail is around 2.4 kilometers long. The trail offers unobstructed views of the nearby Mt Qixing, Mt. Qigu, Mt. Huangzuei and Mt. Zhugao. We also saw water buffalos wandering across the grassland.

Yangmingshan
📌Yangmingshan ⛰️ Sakura 🌸 is another tourist attraction in Taipei, Taiwan. The way to get there is quite difficult. On the mountain, there is strong wind, rain, cold. The cherry blossoms are starting to fall. We went on a 1 day trip on March 26, 2024, but there is still beauty of the cherry blossoms. Drive 🚘 for about 1 and a half hours, travel around the park. There is a cafe for viewing cherry blossoms. The entrance fee is 300 Taiwan dollars per person. You can exchange for food and drinks. #Sakura2024

Autumn scenery of Lengshuikeng in Yangmingshan
#台湾地方游 Although Yangmingshan Lengshuikeng is called Lengshui, it has hot spring baths and free foot soaking pools. There are trails of varying difficulty in the surrounding area, leading to Qingtiangang, the nursery, and Taipei City’s highest peak, Qixing Mountain. You can hike on flat roads or climb mountains.

There are two cute ostriches in the restaurant (David Little Lamb) on Yangming Mountain
Today, Sam drove me and Mr. Shi to Yangming Mountain to see the cherry blossoms. The weather was very good and the sun was shining. We were in a good mood. We went to (Young Marshal Zen Garden) for lunch. Then we went to (Yangming Spring) on Yangming Mountain to drink tea. Then we went to (David's Little Lamb) next to the US Military Club for afternoon tea. There were two cute alpacas in the restaurant. They lay lazily and walked slowly. They were very tame and cute. They would not get angry if guests touched them. They were so cute. We drank latte, mixed juice, a pot of health tea, longan and red date tea, and a plate of fruit donuts. It was so delicious.

Yangmingshan Flower Season
I forgot what kind of flower it was but it was very beautiful.
The flower season is held on Yangmingshan from May to July every year.
You need to pay to enter and visit. Some people will give you flowers to take home.
It is very suitable for families and couples.

Taiwan is definitely a place for nature lover
Getting There - This place isn’t really located at Yang Ming Shan. It’s actually called Zhu Zi Hun or 竹子湖. There’s trials along side where connects to other parks on Yang Ming Shan.
Attractions - What’s nice here is actually the fruits and vegetables that are sold right off the farmers doorstep. This place is really underrated as tour guides only bring you to places that have activities (or tourist might complain the itinerary are boring). If you were to stay in an Airbnb that features a kitchen, it’s good to get some fresh vegetables here and take a morning trial all my the woods.
Food & Restaurants - Some restaurants nearby that features home-cooked food by the owners
Shopping - Fruits, Vegetables, cooked-food.

The best restaurant on Yangming Mountain to see the night view of Taipei (Bagua Yeweisleep)
The Bagua Night is located at the back of Yangmingshan Mountain and has a very romantic atmosphere. We came to the main dining area of Bagua Yeweimian. In order to facilitate everyone to see the night view, they adopted the upper and lower level seating design. There just so happens that there are some beautiful 3D photos downstairs, so hurry up and take a photo with the wings to satisfy girls’ desire to check in. Before the sun sets, quickly capture the sunset in the sky. In this photo, it is not the moon above the willows, but the setting sun hanging on the branches. This place is suitable for sitting from afternoon to evening, and it is better to capture the beautiful scenery of the alternation of day and night.

Natural sulfur hot springs in the mountains of Taipei, Taiwan!
#Southeast Asia Flight Ticket Event #Taiwan #Natural Hot Springs
There are many natural hot springs in Taiwan.
The one I visited was Yangmingshan, located north of Taipei.
It took a little over an hour to rent a motorcycle, and it was literally a natural sulfur hot spring.
The sulfur bubbling up from the ground was really amazing, and the water temperature was hot, almost over 60 degrees.
However, if you find the right spot where it meets the cool valley, you can go in and enjoy the hot springs.
I've been to hot springs operated by companies a few times, but this was my first time to see a naturally formed hot spring, so it was very meaningful.

Yangmingshan National Park : Taiwan
Yangmingshan National Park is located in Taipei, Taiwan.
Since it is a very large park, we did not visit every spot.
There is a bus service to pick up and drop off passengers in the park, which costs a fee. We can get off and visit any spot we want.
The spot we got off at was Erziping, which is almost 2 km away. The atmosphere is very nice. If you are physically ready, it should be more fun. If you like trail walking, I recommend coming here.
How to get there: Take the MRT to Jiantan Station and then take the R5 bus to Yangmingshan Station.

[Suburbs of Taipei] Yangmingshan Beitou: Qingtiangang, Hot Spring Museum, suitable for a day trip!
Yangmingshan Beitou is a great place to visit in the suburbs of Taipei!
Taipei is such a great place, and it does a great job in forest conservation. We participated in a one-day tour to Yangmingshan and Beitou!
Yangmingshan Attractions:
Qingtiangang, Xiaoyoukeng, Lengshuikeng and Yangming Book House are located on the top of the mountain.
Beitou Attractions:
Geothermal Valley, Hot Spring Museum, Beitou Library, Beitou Station
It takes about 40 minutes to drive from the foot of Yangming Mountain to the top. Qingtiangang is an endless grassland. We were lucky that there was no fog on the top of the mountain when we arrived. If we were luckier, we could see a large number of cattle grazing!
The water temperature of Lengshuikeng is about 30 degrees. It is a 10-minute drive from Qingtiangang. Foot soaking is free, and there is also a free public hot spring pool for naked bathing, with separate baths for men and women, but I didn't soak in it due to time constraints.
Xiaoyoukeng is a volcanic eruption where the heat from the vent continuously evaporates the groundwater, forming a spectacle of continuous smoking on the top of the mountain! The whole mountain is filled with the smell of sulfur!
The geothermal valley in Beitou is also worth a visit! It is said that the spring water temperature is as high as 97 to 100 degrees! The steam is floating, which is also a rare experience!

Yangmingshan! Green mountain view
#Taipei Attractions
Come to Yangmingshan for sightseeing.
Stepping into the lush green forest, you will feel the aura of nature all around. The mountain breeze blows, filling the air with a fresh and pleasant feeling.
Touring along the mountain path, you will see green everywhere, which will make you feel intoxicated. A deep green mountain shade, feel the comfort of life and soul.
The experience brought by visiting Yangmingshan is like being in the embrace of nature. Recalling those fresh times, I always feel that life needs the company of nature.
Looking forward to coming again and reliving life requires a pure and natural mind, and an open heart to embrace a vibrant tomorrow.

🍃Yangmingshan National Park🍃
#Taiwan City Attractions #Taiwan #Overseas Travel #Beautiful Scenery
Yangmingshan National Park is one of the most beautiful places in Taiwan 🤗 and I’m so glad I had the chance to visit. I saw various plants and animals in the park, such as cherry blossoms, rhododendrons, butterflies and squirrels. I also enjoyed the park's natural attractions, such as hot springs, volcanoes, waterfalls, and lakes. I think the air in the park is very fresh, which makes me feel relaxed and comfortable. 🎋🎋
My favorite thing is climbing to the top of Qixing Mountain, from where I can overlook the entire Taipei city 👍👍. I was struck by the contrast between the bustle of the city and the tranquility of the park. I think this is a great experience that allows me to better understand Taiwan's nature and culture. I hope to visit Yangmingshan National Park again one day and explore more of its beautiful scenery. 💟💟💟
