The real life town from Spirited Away | Jiufen, Taiwan

one of the most magical places 🏮✨— this is Jiufen (九份), about an hour from Taipei, you can explore hidden alleys, tea shops and delicious local food on streets that feel like they’re out of a Studio Ghibli movie. Does this feel like Spirited Away to you? 🐉

➣ you can take the train from Taipei Main Station to Ruifang Station, from there you can take a bus or cab up to Jiufen, this will take a little over an hour
➣ you can take a taxi from Taipei, this will take about an hour
➣ the cabs can’t go through the narrow alleys, so you’ll be dropped at the main station of the town and need to walk down
➣ we recommend staying over night! it’s lovely to spend the day here, watch the sunset and the lanterns turn on. Jiufen can get busy, so it’s nice if you’re staying overnight to be able to explore later with less people
➣ definitely go to a tea house here! drinking tea here is an experience here and really beautiful overlooking the scenery
