a town that inspired Spirited Away 🎥🏮

I went to Taipei earlier this summer and didn’t want to just stay within Taipei City, so I decided to hire a driver to drive us around the outskirts of Taipei, and Jiufen is the third stop. Jiufen is up on a hill so there’s quite a bit of stairs and slope. The movie Spirited Away was inspired by Jiufen so a lot of souvenir shops sell Spirited Away merchandise, it is definitely worth a visit if you are a fan. Jiufen is not difficult to manoeuvre as it is just one main street. We went for the taro balls soup at 阿柑姨 (see last pic) as recommended by the driver and it did not disappoint!! (the driver said this is the only place she would go for taro ball haaha) #timetotravel #境外遊 #taipei #jiufen

Jiufen Ah Gan Yi Taro Balls

Spirited Away - Filming Location

Jiu Fen - This is where the movie Spirited Away got its inspiration from. Weather was chilly and it’s about 1 hour journey from downtown Taipei. Shops are old school and pretty touristy. Nevertheless, still a great spot for photos and walkabouts. #spiritedaway #taipei #taiwan

When TAIWAN is cheaper than BKK, you go!

Taiwan just fully opened up last month and Singaporeans WERE NOT PREPARED. Tickets to BKK went all the way to over 700 SGD on budget airlines such as Scoot and Air Asia. I was not going to pay such an exorbitant price for BKK, when Starlux Airlines was offering a full service return trip to Taipei for UNDER 400 SGD (selected dates, cheapest I’ve seen was 360+)!!! Look at that salivating Hutong beef bento offered on board, and signature cocktails to pair with the meal? Hell yea! But is Taiwan worth it for a 4D3N trip? Isn’t it too short? One might ask? Definitely Taiwan should be a lengthy trip, but with cheap air tickets and boutique hotels in the heart of the city at 50 SGD, I say #yolo !!! For a short trip, it is advisable to stay within Taipei, where you can spend the nights roaming the many night markets such as Raohe, Shihlin and Ningxia. Loads of food and you will never go hungry! Days can be spent visiting famous spots such as Jiufen, Shifen, take a trip up to Xiang Shan for a scenic view of Taipei 101. Personally, I took a cable car ride up MaoKong for tea and probably the best pork katsu curry I’ve had in my life. And with the new Taipei Airport Rail which will bring you to Taipei Main Station in under 40 minutes at 6 SGD plus amazing trains connecting you to major tourists spots… why beat BANGKOK JAM when you can rock and roll in TAIWAN?? Better book your trip before the prices go skyrocketing! 🥳🥳🥳 #foodie #tripblazers #urbanexplorer #summervacation #awesomepic #cafe #bucketlistreboot #passionpassport #taipei #taiwan #starlux #4d3n

beautiful scenery of waterfall

can never stop staring at this for hours

Jioufen, New Taipei City - Taiwan: Another famous attraction that every tourist has to visit. The signature here is the red lantern along the old building which is even more beautiful at night. There are some local shops, teahouse, local foods at every corner.

Jiufen is a beautiful location to visit in Taiwan! If you have watched Spirited Away and liked the film, then I think you would like this place 😊 While you enjoy the lanterns and food, I recommend trying the tea at Amei Teahouse! #scenicspotguide #givethanks

Taiwan in winter is not too cold, even in the mountains or the sea, there is warm sunshine. Jiufen Old Street and very old street are as full of people as before, but if you walk out of the crowd, you can get a quiet place. The head of the wild willow is still magical, and the feeling of the winter beach is even more special.

Jiufen Mountain City, houses are dotted along the steep hillsides, high and low, high and low, the level is gradually clear, the night is more charming, always reminds people of Lijiang, Yunnan, China, but compared to the noise of Lijiang night, there are many nine coffees here. There are many shops, and the song "Jiufen's Coffee Shop" by Taiwanese singer Chen Yu is from here. Jiufen has no hotels and no hotels, but there are many houses for accommodation. Taipei took the train to Ruifang Station, and then took the bus to Jiufen Old Street. When I got off the bus, I picked up the camera and took a Western shoot. I tasted the gourmet snacks along the way. This may be the result of many tourists coming to Jiufen. Things. It is more like Zeng Yuan's 10 years ago in Xiamen. It is very lively but literary. Jiufen's nostalgic landscape attracts many tourists, mainly in the streets of Jishan Street, Liqiqi Road and Light Road. Jiufen's nostalgic atmosphere naturally inherits many foods, such as round rice. In addition to the original sweet potato and taro flavors, there are special matcha, sesame and yam flavors, both hot and cold. Basically, Jiufen's attractions are not in the network introduction, nor in the books, nor in the recommendation of friends, but in your exploration! The beauty of Jiufen, if you are the earlier, you can see the nine copies of the cockroach, the nine copies of the rain, the nine winds blowing the wind, not the old streets, the nine voices of the voice!

Mushroom Jun's Asian travel Taiwan, Jiufen Jiufen has been occupied by tourists, but I still want to take a look. When I was young, I always felt that I should go to some niche, not known to others, and even go to the Great Wall in Beijing to take a look. At the beginning of this year, I climbed the Great Wall for the first time and stood on the city overlooking the moment. Only then did I find that the place I was familiar with had a view. Due to the movie "Tragic City" in Jiufen, the unique old-style architecture, sloping land and style of the film attracts attention from both home and abroad through this film, and it also brings life to this town. There are too many tourists in the old town, but after 9:00 in the evening, they are extraordinarily clean. The shops are closed one after another. The tourists leave by car and the car is gone. The old city is exposed at this time. The face. The moonlight blew down from the roof, leaving a trail of light on the stone road. Here should be a place with witches? Oh, yes, in addition to the round, the curry fish balls are also very delicious, biting a bit of lips and teeth.

Taiwan-Jiufen-enter spirited away !

Second visit to Jiufen and still love it 🥰. The night tour is worth considering to learn more about the history of jiufen when it all stared as a lucrative gold mining area and how the residents benefited from mining gold. Lots of local food and shops selling interesting souvenirs Be sure to bring an umbrella or raincoat as it rains frequently. The air is very moist so keep your electronics in a ziplock bag!

Day trip from Taipei

#wheretogo Jiu fen is a very charming place to visit. It is situated at higher altitude and with very steep buildings. A must try food at jiu fen is the sweet taro balls. Order a bowl and enjoy with a view. Many souvenirs shops along the way too. I got myself some taiwan tea leaves and handicrafts. Comfortable shoes are recommended as you will be passing by many steps and uneven grounds. Overall, worth a visit to see the unique architectures:)#visittaiwan #jiufen

Breakfast in the Jiufen Mountains

Had an amazing time in Jiufen, Taipei despite the full day drizzle. Stayed in a quaint inn that overlooked the mountains and spent breakfast in bed (prepared by the friendliest staff)! Would 100% recommend to spend at least a night in Jiufen to experience the vibrant streets in the morning, sip tea in the foggy afternoon and experience true spirited away vibes at night.

The place that inspired the spirited away. #jiufen #taiwantravel

Jiufen is a subtle place, facing the mountains and the sea, wet and rainy, permeating the nostalgic mood. From early to late, the old streets are crowded with tourists. In the morning, they are Chinese. During the day, they are Koreans, and at night they become Japanese. If you have any dissatisfaction, go to Agam and buy a bowl of 50 yuan of soup. A small bench on the side of the window sill, the rounds of musk and the perfect sea view will surely make you happy.

New Taipei City, Jiufen. In a lane of Jiufen, there is a photographer's studio, chatting with him. He said that in the spring of 2012, Jiufen appeared at a low altitude, and the sea of clouds surrounded this ancient hill city. The scenery is very spectacular. So he stayed and planned to continue shooting the sea of clouds. Unfortunately, due to the warming of the weather, the clouds have disappeared in recent years, which is a pity. Jiufen, a small mountain town, a layered sea lodge, an old street selling local specialties, is the most famous attraction near Taipei. can come with the local day group, or take the train from Taipei to Ruifang to take the 788 bus to get off at Jiufen. If you are not afraid of hard work, you can also drag your suitcase to stay for one night and pat the night scene of the mountain city.
