Qixing Mountain/Jinshan

Document

Basic infrormation from Wikipedia:
Qixing Mountain, also spelled Cising Mountain or Chihsing Mountain, (Chinese: 七星山; Hanyu Pinyin: Qīxīng Shān; Tongyong Pinyin: Cising Shan; Wade–Giles: Ch'i-Hsing Shan; lit. 'Seven Star Mountain') is a mountain in Beitou District, Taipei, Taiwan. It is located on the Datun Volcano Group and is the highest mountain in the city, at the rim of Taipei Basin. It is also the highest (dormant) volcano in Taiwan. It is located in the center of Yangmingshan National Park; its main peak is 1,120 meters (3,670 ft) above sea level.
The view was breathtaking.

Because a friend wanted to celebrate his birthday on the highest mountain in Taipei, a group of us accompanied him, carrying the birthday cake as we hiked up the mountain. After admiring the scenery at the peak, we became friends with many other hikers, and they joined us in celebrating the birthday by sharing the cake and singing the birthday song together.

One of the interesting sights was the erupting sulfur steam, emitting white smoke.

After cleaning up the garbage and descending the mountain, we took a bus to Jinshan Old Street. There, we tried various dishes such as seafood ramen, taro desserts, and more.

Afterward, we began our journey back home.
This is the sunset we witnessed in Jinshan.
