Description
Discover Taipei Zoo and ride the Maokong Gondola with a combo ticket. Enjoy a one-way ride on the Zoo Tourist Train for easy exploration of the park.
Step into a day of discovery as you wander through one of Asia’s most impressive urban zoos and then glide high above Taipei in a glassy gondola, watching the city unfold beneath your feet. Combine close-up wildlife encounters with sweeping mountain and city views for an experience that feels both playful and unforgettable.
Begin your adventure at Taipei Zoo, where you walk through spacious, museum-like exhibition areas that bring conservation to life. Stroll from the Giant Panda House to the Koala House and the Amphibian and Reptile House, pausing to watch pandas munch bamboo, koalas doze in eucalyptus branches, and colorful reptiles bask under warm lights. Read engaging displays, snap photos of rare species, and feel the excitement of exploring one of the world’s leading urban zoos.
Make your visit smoother by hopping on the Zoo Tourist Train with your included one-way ticket. Ride comfortably between key stops as you sit back, rest your legs, and watch families, strollers, and little explorers roll past lush greenery. Save time on walking long distances, use the train to reach your next animal zone faster, and focus your energy on seeing more of what interests you most.
After you’ve met your favorite animals, head to the Maokong Gondola and rise into the hills above the city. Step into your cabin and watch the ground fall away as you glide along the 4-kilometer route, tracing the curves of the landscape. Admire the MRT snaking below, gaze out over the Taipei Basin, and savor the changing moods of the sky—whether it’s a soft after-rain mist, a golden sunset, or a sparkling night panorama. End your day feeling refreshed, inspired, and full of new memories from a well-paced combo that effortlessly blends wildlife, nature, and city views in one easy-to-enjoy experience.
