★★★★★4 months agoHiked up Xiangshan Hill before Sunset and saw really good views of Taiwan. It takes around 30 minutes to reach the peak (180m).

★★★★★3 months agoI went up to Xiangshan Park and it turned out to be one of the most rewarding spots I visited in Taipei. It is a great place if you want a mix of nature and city views without having to travel too far. The hike itself is not too long, but it can be a bit steep in certain sections, especially with the stairs. It is manageable for most people, but you will definitely feel it by the time you reach the top. Along the way, there are a few resting points, which makes it easier to take breaks and enjoy the surroundings. What really makes it worth it is the view at the top. You get a clear look over the city, and on a good day, the skyline looks amazing. Seeing Taipei 101 from this angle is especially impressive, and it is a popular spot for photos, particularly around sunset. The atmosphere feels quite peaceful compared to the busy city below. Even though there are other visitors, it still feels like a nice escape where you can slow down and take in the scenery. Early morning or late afternoon would probably be the best times to go if you want a more comfortable experience. One thing to keep in mind is to bring water and wear proper shoes, as the path can be a bit tiring if you are not prepared. Overall, I think this is a must visit if you enjoy a short hike with a great payoff. It is not just about the destination, but also the experience of getting there and seeing a different side of Taipei.
