Jiu Fen is one of the most famous tourist attraction in Taiwan nowadays. Famous from an inspired scene from Studio Ghibli Spirited Away. As I traverse around Jiu Fen street with colorful side vendors, it is more enjoyable with Spirited Away soundtrack in my head.
Stopped to take a tea break with Skyline tea house opposite to famous A Mei tea house. Their menu of beef noodles are enjoyable with fragrant tea by the sea view on a clear sky day. What a lovely scenery.
Exquisite Shabu Mala style. Ding Wang is more like a family celebration kind of restaurant rather than all you can eat style shabu place. Mala soup was not too numb for my taste. Amazing A5 Wagyu quality. Not so extensive menu but well executed quality.
Hihi I’m also writing about my trip to Jiufen last November 🙂 The Amei Teahouse is certainly the most photogenic building in Jiufen.

I had no idea that Spirited Away took some ideas from places like this. That is pretty neat.

I didn’t stayed until dusk which is an inspiration theme for Spirited Away. Still the scene of discovering the place is totally similar when you first visited as people walk by and side shops all around.
