Taiwan Travel: How to go to Maokong Gondola?
With the unpredictable weather in Taipei, riding a gondola (or cable car) to the top of the mountain can be a tricky affair. Why is it the case? It's because whenever there is any strong wind, rains, or worse, thunderstorms, the gondola will be closed.
On a one fine day with blue sky and hot sun, I decided to use the opportunity and go straight to Taipei Zoo MRT Station. When you have reach Taipei Zoo Station, just follow the sign to Maokong Gondola ( I think it's on Exit 2). You will see a lot of pandas welcoming you to Taipei. =)
There are more signs outside leading you to the Gondola Station. And you can take picture with the sign too.
The gondola station is located within 5 minutes walking distance from the above sign.
The gondola ticket counter is located at the level 4 of the station.
