"Also known as Elephant, this is one of the most famous places where you can get an amazing view of the iconic Taipei 101 and the city. I recommend going here either in the morning or in the afternoon. There are so many stairs (it felt never-ending) so make sure to wear comfortable shoes and bring water.
Tip: If you keep walking past the scenic view point, you will find really nice trails that will take you to different parts of the mountain. "
