On this private tour of Jiufen and Yehliu Park, you'll have the chance to explore the location that inspired Spirited Away and peculiar geological formations while diving into the history of an ancient Japanese gold mine.
We'll pick you up at your hotel in Taipei and drive to the north coast of Taiwan by minibus.
As we arrive, we'll kick off the visit to Yehliu, a geological park renowned for its extraordinary rock formations that spark the imagination. Shaped by centuries of sea erosion, these sculptures bear intriguing names such as "Dragon's Head" and "Queen's Shoe." Can you envision the captivating shapes and forms they take?
After visiting Yehliu, we'll head into the mountains to discover the Shifen Waterfall, nicknamed the Little Niagara of Taiwan. This natural wonder will make you fall in love as soon as you arrive, as it's 20 meters (65 feet) high and 40 meters (131 feet) wide and offers a real natural spectacle that will take everyone's breath away.
As our journey continues, we arrive at the charming town of Jiufen. Nestled into the mountainside, it treats us to stunning views of the Pacific coast. Jiufen boasts a bustling market on its main street, where you can indulge in various local delicacies. How about trying some pineapple candy or savoring a delectable meat and rice dumpling, the choices are endless!
Jiufen will include visits to the workshops of skilled artisans who have made this town their home. Additionally, you'll be able to explore the traditional tea houses tucked away in the labyrinth of alleys adorned with red lanterns. For Studio Ghibli enthusiasts, this village may evoke the feeling of being in a Hayao Miyazaki movie, as it inspired his iconic film, Spirited Away. We encourage you to discover the locations that inspired this cinematic masterpiece!
After a total 8 hours of sightseeing and exploration, we'll bring you to your hotel in Taipei.
