Known as the Temple of 1000 Steps.

The Zhinan Temple is a taoist temple on the hill side of Monkey Mountain in Muzha (a suburb of Taipei).

It is very famous for being The Temple of 1000 Steps and it is said to prolong your life 20 seconds per step. We decided to take the Maokong Gondola to temple instead of the many many steep steps. Steps or gondolas, the temple, and surrounding temples of the Zhinan area, are absolutely stunning. Zhinan was founded in 1882 and on the ground is also found 2 Buddhist chapels.

We bought the girls blessed golden necklaces.
