During the summer vacation last year. My friend Yuki from Singapore and I decided to take a look at Taiwan’s beauty, Jiufen. To cross out our travel checklist, we signed up for Jiufen &Pingxi Day Tour offered by Justaiwantour.

Let’s hit the road! Although there were lots of famous sightseeing spots, don’t forget to check Shengping Theater, a historic building that has been transformed into a museum. The old theater plays some classic films every weekend. Besides checking the museum, it made a great waiting place too with toilet and free water provided inside. Jiufen old street is not that big, you can finish exploring it in 2 or 3 hours.

See what you can do in Jiufen.

We spent the half-day slowly exploring the town, enjoying the view, chilling at cafes, taking pictures, and eating street food without the need to feel rushed. Of course, besides eating, we also do some souvenir and snack shopping, too. For instance, bag, keychain, homemade ornaments, Karina, cookies, pineapple cake, meat floss, etc. We bought Kaonashi magnet and also tasty salmon floss as souvenirs. We stay until sunset because the afternoon before the night view is charming when the lantern lights are turned on.

The night view in Jiufen

The night vibes will definitely remind you of Spirited Away movie. ( Read More: JIUFEN-THE REAL LIFE SPIRITED AWAY ) FYI, most of the shops here are closed around 7 PM. After visiting Jiufen, we highly recommend visiting Keelung Night Market before heading back to Taipei since we were already around that area.( Read more: One day tour of the Port of Keelung and Jiufen ) Keelung is a port city, therefore, you can find many seafood-based dishes. That was our best experience ever in Jiufen.

 

To explore more about the northeastern part of Taiwan, you can also join Yehliu & Jiufen Day Tour. The view of the coastline is breathtaking, you can even find some seasonal attractions of you are lucky. ( Read more: Spring Only! The Dreamlike Laomei Green Reef )
