A Serene Escape at Bishanyan

#chinatravel Exploring Bishanyan (碧山巖) along Bishan Road in Taipei City, Taiwan, was such a refreshing experience. Tucked away in the Neihu District, this hidden gem offers peaceful temple grounds and incredible views of the city. The climb up is fairly easy, and once you reach the top, you're greeted with cool breezes, lush greenery, and a tranquil atmosphere that makes you want to linger. The temple itself is beautifully maintained, and it's not overly crowded like other tourist spots. I especially enjoyed the small trails nearby that lead to scenic overlooks and quiet corners perfect for taking a break. If you're lucky, you might catch the sun setting over Taipei, which makes the trip totally worth it. It’s a great half-day adventure for anyone looking to slow down and reconnect with nature without leaving the city. Definitely recommend it for locals and travelers alike.
