The Maokong Gondola

Runs from Taipei Zoo MRT station to Maokong, with stops at the Taipei Zoo South and Zhinan Temple stations. There are two types of cable cars - regular and crystal, which has a clear bottom. You have to select which type of car to board. There's no difference in ticket or price, only in waiting time. The line for the crystal cars takes much longer. However, it's not worth the wait as the view from the bottom of the crystal car is pretty much the same as the view you get from the sides of the regular car. Two bus lines[http://www.taipeibus.taipei.gov.tw/index_e.htm] serve the Maokong area: bus number S10, which departs from the Wanfang Community MRT Station, and bus number BR15, which can be boarded at the Taipei Zoo and Taipei City Hall MRT stations.
