My friend and I have always wanted to travel abroad, we discussed and decided to travel to Southeast Asian countries. We chose the Taiwan tour in the end because the Taiwan tour packages sold by the Taiwan travel agency is very favorable. Since we have a total of 8 tourists, we also book private chartered car services and the Taiwan tour guide for convenience sake.
On the first day of our private Taipei day tour, we came to Jiufen, which is one of the best Taiwan vacations for couple and friends! Shengping theater and Amei tea house are all popular tourist attractions in Jiufen. We also visited the Qianjin road of the Gold mine tunnel. I heard that this tunnel is a movie scene of Japanese anime movies—Spirited Away. This tunnel is artificially excavated, mainly in the traffic lanes of the local people and can be connected to the light road along Jishan Street. (Read Also: JIUFEN: THE REAL LIFE SPIRITED AWAY)

There is a viewing platform on the light road. We stayed here to watch the sunset of Jiufen. The landscaped terrace can see the beautiful scenery of the mountain city and the scenery of the harbor. We took many photos and went to Jiufen Songde Park, which was founded in 1917. There are many modern art sculptures in the park, but due to the sudden rain, we had to go to Jiufen old street to buy an umbrella in advance.

I guess the Jiufen weather is always like this: constantly raining. There are many shops selling umbrellas, one of the umbrella types is made of paper and the appearance is very delicate and meticulous. our Taipei trip guide introduced this umbrella, which has a good auspicious symbol in addition to sheltering the sun and sheltering from the rain.
According to traditional Taiwanese culture, when the daughter is married, the parents will use two umbrellas as a dowry and the round umbrella means consummation (Read Also: ILLUSTRATION: 5 Wedding Traditions in Taiwan). I think that Taiwanese are very creative and give different values to the oil paper umbrella. (Read Also: Oil-paper umbrellas power Hakka cultural renaissance in Taiwan)
