🇹🇼Half day trip in TW before flight| Bus to 擎天崗

Before catching your flight back, you can plan a half-day trip in Taipei if you’re taking a midnight flight.

Qingtiangang 擎天崗: You can get there by Grab or public transportation. Do note that you should plan this as the first stop of your day, as the last bus down the hill is at 6:20 PM and the queue can get very long.

✅ How to take the bus to Qingtiangang?

1. Go to Jiantan MRT Station and exit to the bus stop.

2. Take Bus Red 15 (it’s a direct bus to Qingtiangang)

... Read moreIf you’re looking to extend your half-day trip experience beyond just reaching Qingtiangang Grassland, there are several practical tips you should consider. First, the best time to visit Yangmingshan National Park, where Qingtiangang is located, is during the morning hours when the weather is cooler and the crowds are minimal. This makes for a more enjoyable and peaceful nature walk. When heading to the bus stop at Jiantan MRT Station, consider purchasing an EasyCard to simplify your bus fare payments. The EasyCard works on most public transport in Taipei, saving you time and effort while transferring between the MRT and bus. Once you arrive at Qingtiangang, don’t miss walking through the vast grassland, enjoying panoramic views of Taiwan’s famous volcanic terrain. Many travelers also love the nearby bamboo forests and the chance to see grazing water buffalo, which adds to the authentic Taiwanese rural experience. After exploring Qingtiangang, you can plan to visit other attractions nearby such as the nearby Yangmingshan Flower Clock or take a short hike to Xiaoyoukeng for its volcanic fumaroles. If your flight schedule allows, consider wrapping up your day with a visit to popular night markets in Taipei like Shilin or Ningxia, which are easily accessible by public transport from the city center. Lastly, remember the bus back from Qingtiangang stops running around 6:20 PM, so plan your return timing carefully to avoid missing the last bus.
