Taipei City - Bishan Temple
🇹🇼 New Taipei · Taiwan — Altitude 255 m
This live stream points at Bishan Temple, a Buddhist temple on the slopes north of central Taipei. Watch it to see the temple grounds and surrounding hills as they are right now, before you plan a visit or simply to check conditions above the city.
Bishan Temple sits on a hillside in the Wenshan-Shilin area, within New Taipei, a short distance from the city proper. It is known for its traditional Chinese temple architecture, its terraced gardens and its position overlooking the Tamsui River basin. The surrounding hills are green and wooded, which gives the site a calmer feel than the busy streets below. Taiwan's subtropical climate shapes the vegetation throughout the year.
The title names a temple rather than a street or waterfront, so the view is best understood as a hilltop religious site with the city in the distance. Depending on the angle, you may see temple roofs, gardens, and haze or clouds drifting over the valley. Mornings often bring clearer air, while late afternoon and evening can show the lights of the city coming on. Rain and humid weather are common and can reduce visibility.
Taipei has a dense public transport network, and temples in these hills are usually reached by bus or taxi from the city centre, with the final stretch often climbing steps or a road. Spring and autumn are generally the most comfortable seasons, while summer is hot and humid with frequent afternoon showers. Other live cameras in the wider region include Geo Vision 360, Jiantanshan Weifeng Observatory, Top of Xiangshan and Dadaocheng Wharf.
