Yang Ming Shan is a collection of peaks in Taiwan, located to the norteast of Taipei.
The Yang Ming Shan National Park is famous for its cherry blossoms, hot springs, sulfur deposits, and hiking trails, including one over the extinct volcano Seven Star Mountain (Chising Mountain).We spent 3 days 2 night here and we were so please with its surrounding, its full with fesh mountain air,lush green hills and we have great time let our body melt away in the milky sulfur
bath. it was pretty cold and freezing on our day one there and thats kinda restricted our jungle trekking plan abit but we nevertheless gave it a try to some trekking but It was way too cold and windy in hilltop (its freezing) and the low visibility at last us only few hours there before we heading
for our hot spring bath.

But we were lucky still as it was sunny day the following days, we have great time trekking the Qixingshan (Seven Star Mountain) and withness the sulfur deposit and a few natural hot springs.
QiXingshan has an elevation of 1120 meters, and its peak is the highest point in Taipei City. The Bird's eye view from the top of mountain was really amazing.I love the scenery and the fresh mountain air though it was a bit windy at time.The mountain is characterized by tropical rainforest, whereas above 1000 meters, scrub-like trees and tall clumping grasses are the main form of vegetation. From far the clump of grass has eventually compose very nice view and landscape. Its lovely
