I went the weekend of the tomb sweeping festival. Not too many people. The entrance fee is ¥6. I was there for maybe 45 minutes. You may take more time if you are able to read Chinese or if you have more than one person in your party. Decent place to take pictures (not of the inside of temples of course).

Expect to climb and a steep hike up, hence not very suitable for wheelchairs and young children. Enjoy a breathtaking scenery by taking the gondola as well as the open air car ride activity. Best way to get there is to take the metro to the Xishan train station and walk 100m to the western hills scenic and ticketing area where they sell bus rides up the slopes at 12.50rmb. If u want to visit the yunnan cultural village, this is the place to take the gondola downward as well There are also many local food stalls. U need at least 4-5 hours and expect lots of walking!
