    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?

      @GabrielTravelerVideos Před 4 lety +1

      No, I only had five days in Taiwan and spent it exploring Taipei. It was too short of a visit but I'm at the end of six months of traveling and heading back to the US to take a break. So I'll have to come back sometime to explore more. Really cool country with a lot to see.

      yes its my second favorite spot. excellent people and food. their shopping malls are amazing and so fun! No need to leave the capital. expect 90+degree days EVERYDAY with humids nights. If you are looking for fun to bring back to your hotel room, its on every corner, whatever you want. @@Reformatt

    Your pronunciation of Ghibli is off. It's actually with a soft G, not a hard G as you pronounce it. I've been living 10 minutes away from Ghibli Museum for 30 years.
