Taipei - MAOKONG MOUNTAIN Hike - Tea Plantations and Tea Houses in Taipei, Taiwan

Part 2: Maokong (Chinese name 貓空) Tea Houses and Hiking Trails in Taipei, Taiwan. In this video we invite you to walk with us on a mountain hiking trail just outside Taipei, Taiwan, close to the Taipei Zoo. We have just arrived on the mountain in Maokong with the Maokong Gondola (Maokong Cable Way). If you would like to watch part 1 of this Taipei Travel video, "Our Ride up the Mountain on the Maokong Gondola" you can watch it here:    • Taipei - LONGEST CABLE CAR RIDE! Maok...  
Walk with us to get a feeling what it is like on this mountain. We show you the famous Tea Shops where you can stop for a cup of Tea and also buy some Tea to take home.

We also show you some of the Tea Plantations along the way. If you are a nature lover, a Hike on the Maokong Nature Trails are a must. If you are unable to walk far there is also an option to be driven along the mountain road by public bus which operates along the Maokong Mountain Pass throughout the day, watch out for the Pink Buses! Visiting the Maokong (貓空) Tea Houses and Hiking Trails along with the long Maokong Gondola (cableway) was one of the highlights of our trip to Taipei, Taiwan. A visit to the Maokong Tea Houses and Hiking Trails (with the Maokong Gondola) is without a doubt one of the Top Taipei Attractions to see or experience.

Wiki writes about Maokong (貓空), "Maokong is an area located in Wenshan District of Taipei, Taiwan. The area used to be the biggest tea growing area of Taipei. There are many intertwining footpaths which have been used to transport tea. Now, it is a popular place for tea culture and viewing the night scenery of Taipei City.. Maokong (貓空) is a suburb of Taipei. It sits on the edge of Taipei Basin; the entire city of Taipei can be seen from the mountain, especially on a cloudless day.
There are many pathways for hiking such as from National Chengchi University at the foot of the hill to the top of the mountain. On weekends many people come to Maokong (貓空) to go hiking and climbing. Maokong still produces some tea, most notably tieguanyin tea. Many restaurants in the area offer both tea and food. A combination of traditional tea culture, food, and scenery are the main reasons the area has become a popular tourist destination..."
