I had originally planned on going to the Taiping cable car thinking it would be quicker and easier. However, I'm not sure that it makes a difference time wise. We would be taking the scenic bus from the North Railway station, which goes to the south entrance, and would need to take a taxi from the southern mountain entrance to where the Taiping cable car was located (north entrance). The hiking from Taiping cable car to Xihai hotel would be shorter, but probably close to equivalent time wise when you factor in the taxi ride. If, we were coming from the north side, then we'd use Taiping cable car.
Yungu cable car is a more appealing route for us, since, I'd rather hike on the mountain than take a taxi.
