Jiufen Old Street Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Jiufen Old Street at night 🌙
Talk a walk down Jiufen Old Street at night, and you will be memerised by its beautiful decorations and architecture.
The main attraction in Jiufen at night will be the A-Mei Teahouse. Where locals and tourists will flock to, to take pictures and appreciate its beautiful structure.
Almost everywhere is decorated with red lanterns, quite beautiful
I would recommend dining in at the teahouse for a better view and also good food.
It is not easy to get a table during nighttime, so be early or make a reservation to avoid disappointment.
It's not really accessible as there are stairs everywhere.
Getting There - Jishan St, Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan 224
Attractions - A-Mei Tea House
Hotels - Aplenty
Food & Restaurants - Aplenty
Shopping - Interesting local stores

Jiufen Old Street
Jiufen Old Street should be a must-visit for visitors to Taipei. The area was once a gold mining town but now is more famous for its teahouses and scenic views of the mountains and sea. It also apparently inspired the Japanese movie Spirited Away, so there are lots of shops selling Studio Ghibli souvenirs. It is over an hour from the central parts of Taipei, but we found a direct bus here from Ximen station.

Spirited-Away atmosphere in New Taipei
Never thought that I will be visiting this Spirited Away vibe place call JiouFen 九份，there is an old street here to explore around. Great mountainous area to grab a good photo. Plenty of tea house around for people to chill over and admire the scenery. The only tiring thing is there are many stairs to climb. Food to try, a-zhu peanut ice cream roll, Amei tea house and Lai A-po Yu Wan (taro balls) !
Best season to visit will be summer as Autumn to Spring do expect rain. Remember to bring umbrellas !

Jiufen Old Street with pretty sunset 🌅
Situated in the county of Rueifang, Jiufen is seated in the mid valley.. take the shuttle bus from rueifang train station or a taxi up. Journey takes about 45mins.
It will be a good choice to visit this place after taking a light lunch as you will be able to fit in more snacks from the shops along the way.. best timing is to come at around 2~3pm.. the streets will take about an hour or two to roam (of course depends on your shopping pace) 🤭🤭
After all the foods n shopping, head down to the viewing gallery (or midway viewing spot) for the Sunset. Can check out the sunset timing using your weather app , it’s quite accurate
If you intend to take the public transport, pls take note of the last bus departure timing as it differs during peak and off peak times

An amazing photo stop with gorgeous scenery🤩
One of the best destinations in Northern Taiwan, and is located along a cape stretching out from the town of Wanli - The Yehliu Geopark is well-known for its strange-looking rocks, yet we found another pleasant and green spot here.🌳🍀
Because it is part of Datun Mountain, which runs out to the sea, you can get a taste of nature 🌿 and the sea 🌊 by walking more inside and climbing the stone stairs.

So, what would make you glow? 🤩
When life gets tough, Taipei is my 911. It’s the quickest and cheapest escape for me from Seoul. If your journey brings you to Taipei, Shangrila’s sky lounge has the best view of Taipei 101. Be there before 5 to get the best seat! The city has numerous Michelin restaurants to try near Ximending area. Leave comments for the ultra-best kept Michelins! Of course, you can’t possibly leave Taipei without a sip of their famous milk tea! It’s everywhere but my fave is Xing
Fu Tang for the extra extra bubbles 😍

a geopark an hour away from taipei 🏞️🌿🌴
I went to Taipei earlier this summer and didn’t want to just stay within Taipei City, so I decided to hire a driver to drive us around the outskirts of Taipei, and Yehliu Geopark was the first stop.
When I went, it was really hot and the sun was blazing, definitely bring water and apply SPF.
The main attraction is the Queen’s Head 女王头, but since there was a queue of people trying to take picture with it, we just snapped a quick shot (the cover picture). We were told by the driver that since the Queens Head is a natural phenomenon along the coastline, the rock connecting the Queen’s Head and Body is thinning out and it will probably collapse within the next couple of years. So definitely pay a visit while you still can!!

Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
TPE Airport
We flew in and out of Taipei Taoyuan Airport (TPE) to visit Taiwan. The international terminal is very convenient and has lots of shops and food venues. We noticed that Taiwan loves Sanrio characters, and the airport also had several cute Sanrio shops. There were also several stores selling famous Taiwan snacks and souvenirs. Small rest areas and art galleries are scattered around the terminal as well to help travelers pass the time.

Starlux A350 Business Class fun
#wecreate
The highlight of the trip! ❤️
With a J cabin so pretty, it is no wonder Starlux’s business class has garnered such rave reviews 🍀
The classy brown / black tones of the seat was such a delight for the almost 4-hour flight - fancy seat functions, electronic window, plenty storage space, zero gravity position, and of course fantastic headphones ✌🏻
The beef short ribs char siu is one of the best business class meals I’ve ever had in my life - I want to eat it again! Coupled with 4 servings of the Baileys Martini, the meal was memorable for sure. Especially when I knocked out for 30mins thereafter heh 🤣
Service was fantastic served up by the youthful crew and there was no sense of hurried service anywhere despite it being a full cabin. Kudos to the team for being prompt and polite to a fault 🎊
This marks the end of my Starlux-ury hop and I’m so glad I did it ✈️
Starlux Galactic Lounge chillax
#wecreate
Ah, STARLUX’S flagship lounge! 🔥
I almost didn’t get to experience this as I was given an invitation to Plaza Premium at check in and informed that the reason was because the airline was expecting full house. But I decided to chiong as fast as I can to beat the crowd anyways! 😂
So glad I did!
The shimmering brown tones of the lounge was such a welcome respite from the airport madness and I was ushered into peace and tranquility by the smiley staff who offered the on-demand breakfast menu 🍲
The lounge itself is not big and I was able to get some nice shots being the first pax at 545am. Solo seats and communal options were available, with a TV and magazine selection for those who need the distraction. 📺
Food wise, a small buffet selection is available with the usual breakfast-y stuff but the highlight is the on-demand menu! I tried both the speciality ramen (very salty leh) and soy bean set (not bad la) just to check them off. ✌🏻
Service was all smiley efficiency by the youthful team and soiled items were cleared fairly quickly as well 🍀
The space filled up quickly thereafter so please come early if you can to snag a spot! 🎊
Neat and efficient airport
Taoyuan Airport is most likely the first port of entry if you are arriving in Taiwan.
This airport is very efficient and easy for transit as well as for arriving passengers. Do note that you need to fill up the arrival card before queuing up at the immigration line. The line can get long if there are many flights arriving at the same time.
What I like about this airport is its connection to Taipei city via Airport MRT. For 150 NT, you can get a comfortable ride to town.

Sun Moon Lake Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Taiwan’s Picturesque Sun Moon Lake 🌞🌜💦
The ferry ride around Sun Moon Lake was a serene journey that showcased the beauty of Taiwan's natural landscapes.
Boarding the boat, I was greeted by the gentle breeze and panoramic views of the surrounding mountains mirrored in azure blue waters. The rhythmic hum of the engine was like a soothing soundtrack that played in the background as we glided across the lake. We saw charming villages and lush forests along the shoreline.
Each time the boat turned behind a peninsula, new vistas were revealed - from the iconic Lalu Island to the picturesque temples nestled amidst verdant hills. It was a peaceful escape, a contrast from the the hustle and bustle of Taipei City. I really enjoyed the tranquility of Sun Moon Lake's idyllic surroundings.

To me, Hong Kong is a place that offers a unique mix of culture, outdoors, nightlife, food and history! I want to travel to Hong Kong to visit Causewaybay, perhaps take a day trip to Macau, ride on the Peak Tram and...so much more!
BIKE AND ENJOY THE BEAUTIFUL NATURE 🌞
SUN MOON LAKE
Ambiance ☁️
It’s a really nice experience biking all the way along the biking trail all over Sun Moon Lake. You can feel the sun, the breeze, and you will be amazed by the nature!
Highlights ✨
It will takes approximately 2 hours ride, it’s definitely tiring, so I suggest you to rent the electric bike 🚲
PS: a lot of bike rentals in the town, or you can book beforehand
Rating ⭐️
4/5

Cable Car, Motor Swan Boat, Paddle Boat and many more available to do!! #mytripvlog #taiwan #tripblazers
One of the prettiest lakes in Asia
Taiwan is brimming with incredible natural scenery yet few locations captivate the tourist masses quite like Sun Moon Lake. Interestingly, the lake as it is today is actually man-made, formed as a result of the dam constructed during Japanese rule in 1931. However, regardless of the fact that it is a relatively new landscape, the area is home to the Thao tribe and as such there are many myths and legends relating to the mountains surrounding the lake. If you’re heading for Sun Moon Lake, then the best way is by bus or by car. There are many private tour companies that run buses from both Taichung and Taipei to the lake and some even include hotel accommodation in their tour package. However, a car of your own or a rental is a far more enjoyable way to get there as you’re not bound by schedules. There’s plenty of paid public parking around the lake and most hotels provide on-site private parking.
