We set off from Taichung, and it started drizzling as we approached Taipei, meaning we had to use umbrellas to see the Yin-Yang Sea and Golden Waterfall. By the time we reached Jiufen, we were already wearing raincoats. Little did we know that Shifen would be even more spectacular – our shoes were completely soaked! 😂😂😂
We participated as a couple. We were able to experience tea while seeing the scenery we wanted to see in Jiufen. Above all, the staff at the shop were very polite and kind, calling out to us before we even ordered, taking many photos with the tea and scenery in the background, and even taking many photos in front of the shop on our way back. Some people may think, "That price for tea and sweets?", but we were able to create memories of our trip that were worth more than the price. We are very satisfied. As an aside, the restrooms were also very clean.
We were blessed with perfect weather and were able to tour efficiently. We traveled in a minibus with six people, which was spacious and smooth. The guide also explained a lot, but I felt like I could have understood more if my Japanese level had been a little higher. It was difficult to understand the historical parts... Still, it was a tour worth going on.
Simply scan the QR code to order – it's super convenient! This is a must-try dessert in Jiufen, and taro lovers absolutely have to try it!
