Directions: -
1) Take bus "Red 5" from Jiantan station 劍潭站 (red line). Bus-stop is facing the Shinlin food center.




2) When you reach Yangmingshan's bus terminal, take the Leisure Bus 108.



It is a loop service that brings you to every major spots in Yangmingshan. However, do note that you have to pay whenever you alight and board the bus. So it is best to buy the Taipei Pass MRT card beforehand and you can alight as many stops as you like.

Oh yes, there are no proper bus-stop signs in Yangmingshan. Just tell the bus driver where you want to go so that he will stop at the correct bus-stop for you.

  1. The best time to go is during the cool weather. I went in March and the weather is just right for strolling.

    My favourite place is at the CingTianGang stop. It is a big flat area of grassland where you can relax and enjoy the scenery.

    Few other spots are:
    -YangMing Study stop to see Chiang Kai Shiek house

    -XiaoYuKeng stop to see volcano
    -LengShueiKeng stop for free hotspring. Please note they have stop the free foot-soaking service.
