Tour Overview

Climb the shaded stone stairways of Xiangshan as the heat of the day fades. We time the ascent so you reach the scenic boulder viewpoints just as the afternoon sun casts an amber glow across the spire of Taipei 101, lingering to watch the metropolis switch on its evening lights.

After taking in the skyline views, we descend into Linjiang (Tonghua) Night Market—a neighborhood favorite known for its approachable size, friendly vendors, and Michelin-recognized street food. It is the ideal, relaxed post-hike reward where you can sample fresh pork belly gua bao, sizzling teppanyaki, or refreshing bubble milk tea.
