Taipei Suburbs Maokong Gondola and Zhanghu Trail Tour

#5月好去处2025 The Maokong Cable Car operates from Tuesday to Sunday. You can walk five minutes from the MRT Zoo Station to the Maokong Cable Car Station. There is no air conditioning on the cable car, which is a bit stuffy. It will be closed when it is windy or raining. There is a Zhanghu Trail near the cable car station on the top of the mountain. You can walk all the way to Zhangshan Temple in about 20 minutes. The scenery along the way is also good. There are also many restaurants near the cable car station where you can eat and have ice cream. If you take it from the top of the mountain down, there are animal fur pictures near Zhinan Palace Station to guess the animal and bird pictures to guess the name. The answer will be announced after passing the Zoo South Station. If you get off at the Zoo South Station to visit the zoo, you will not be able to see the answer. If you care about the result of the guessing puzzle, remember to get off at the Zoo Station at the end.
