About
One of the eight national parks in Taiwan, the Yangmingshan National Park (Chinese: 陽明山國家公園; pinyin: yáng míngshān guójiā gōngyuán) is located between Taipei City and New Taipei City, Taiwan. The districts that house parts of the park grounds include Taipei's Beitou and Shilin Districts; and New Taipei's Wanli, Jinshan, and Sanzhi Districts. During the Japanese occupation era of Taiwan, it was known as Datun National Park (大屯国立公園). The National Park is famous for its cherry blossoms, hot springs, sulfur deposits, fumaroles, venomous snakes and hiking trails, including Taiwan's tallest and one over the inactive volcano Seven Star Mountain (七星山, 1,120 m).
