Jiufen Photos and extra tips on my blog:
Nowadays, #Jiufen is a popular tourist attraction and quite legendary for its stunning scenery from the A-mei tea house.
The A-mei tea house is perhaps the best known attraction in Jiufen, rumor goes it was featured in Ghibili’s Spirited Away (Anime movie) by Hayao Miyazaki.

Since Jiufen is an hour drive east of the capital Taipei, you may want to make Jiufen a day trip with a possible stop at Keelung city.
In Jiufen I recommend you start with the Jiufen Old Street which is a market street with many food vendors selling delicious treats like stinky tofu, almond drinks, fish balls and peanut ice cream wraps.
These are my 5 Things to do in Jiufen:
1. Jiufen Old Street
2. Stinky Tofu
3. Almond Drink
4. Peanut Ice Cream Wrap
5. A-Mei Tea House #Ghibli
Make sure you visit Jiufen in good physical condition since the stairways can be very steep so do not forget a good pair of running shoes. It could also rain a lot so an umbrella is highly recommended.

Jiufen is considered the 'santorini' of Taiwan for being a gorgeous mountain village with steep stairways including the beautiful A-mei tea house which was the inspiration for the anime movie: Spirited Away. What is your favorite Ghibli movie?

Nice! I love this place. I have been to there on January. I think take shuttle bus is the best way to get there because it is often rains there.

Great vid..beautiful place and you've got a cool personality!
Welcome to Taiwan！！
☺😄😃
Nice Video！👍👏👍
Nice video 👍,
what is the name of music you are using as background?
Love your vids 🙂
BTW, there's actually a secret trail which you can hike from cat village to Juifen (or vice versa) with around 1 hour walk.
Not many people know about the trail, even if the local people.
It's really worth a visit, since it has gorgeous scene, and if you're planning to visit both places at first place, it also save time on transportation.
Great video! Love your enthusiasm 😁
I love TAIWAN !!!💖💖💖
Taiwanese food is the best in the world.
What a super interesting place! Would love to 👀!
