A-MEI Tea House

🍵🏞️ My trip connected Shifen’s famous waterfall, Houtong’s quirky cat vibes (definitely pop by in the middle!), and ended in magical Jiufen as the lanterns glow—trust me, it’s a total travel mood. Must-See Places: 1. Shifen Waterfall (乾坑10號, Pingxi District) — Open 9:00-16:30. This spot looks stunning when sunny and is an Insta favorite with those nature-meets-Chinese architecture vibes. Snap pics, then hit the trails! 2. Shifen Old Street (No. 81號, Shifen St, Pingxi District) — Open all day. Wander among food stalls and try the savory grilled squid or peanut ice cream rolls. There’s tons of souvenir shopping, too! 3. Houtong Cat Village — Stop here after Shifen! It’s full of modern and quirky cat-themed spots—perfect for a chill snack break and scenic river views. Take the local train for the easiest route. 4. Jiufen & A-MEI Tea House (No. 20, Shixia Lane, Ruifang District) — Hit Jiufen right before sunset. When the lanterns light up, this old street is pure magic. Squeeze in a slow tea session at A-MEI Tea House: the view over the mountains and sea is gorgeous. Pro Tips: Go to Houtong between Shifen and Jiufen so you finish at Jiufen after dark for maximum lantern magic. 🤩 Don’t rush—so many food stalls at Jiufen for dinner! Bring cash (some spots in Jiufen and Shifen are cash-only). Getting Around: The local train connects each stop—buy tickets at the station, or use an EasyCard. Walking shoes are a must since old streets have stairs and slopes. #NewTaipeiWonders #ShifenFalls #JiufenViews #TaiwanTea #LanternNight

✨Taiwan Travel Diary – A Journey Full of Heart & Memories 🧳🌸 From the moment I landed in Taipei, I knew this trip would be special! The first stop was none other than the iconic Taipei 101 🏙️—standing tall and proud, piercing through the clouds. The view from the observatory was absolutely breathtaking 😍. As I gazed down at the city lights, it felt like the whole world was glittering beneath my feet 💫. Cingjing Farm 🐑⛰️ — a peaceful paradise surrounded by rolling green hills, cool breeze, and fluffy sheep wandering freely. Feeding them under the wide blue sky was pure joy 💕. Not far away, colorful windmills spun cheerfully in the wind, adding a whimsical touch to the mountain scenery 🌬️🌻. When night fell, Fengjia Night Market came alive with lights, laughter, and mouthwatering aromas 😋🍢. I tried everything — crispy chicken cutlets, bubble tea, and sweet potato balls 🧋🍠✨. Each bite was happiness on a stick! In Taichung, I paid a visit to Yingcai Fude Temple 🙏 and Guangtian Palace 🏮— feeling the calm and cultural beauty of Taiwanese faith and tradition. The scent of incense and the sound of temple bells created a moment of peace in my heart 🌸🕊️. I also explored Yongle Market 🧵— a paradise for fabric lovers and local crafts! Then, I wandered through the historical Longshan Temple 🐉, where time seemed to slow down as I offered a prayer for health and happiness 💖🕯️. Finally, I found myself lost in the charm of Jiufen Old Street 🎐⛩️ — red lanterns glowing in the mist, the smell of tea and taro balls in the air 🍵🍡. I ended my day at Ruifang Station 🚉, grabbing a snack at Ruifang Food Court before heading back. Every stop in Taiwan was a blend of tradition, nature, and delicious discoveries 💕. I left with a full heart, a happy belly, and memories that will sparkle forever ✨🌏💖. #TaiwanTravel#Wanderlust 🧳🌸#cingjingfarm #taipei101 #jiufen

I spent a sun-soaked day at the iconic Queen’s Head and Yehliu Geopark—total musts for anyone who loves nature and quirky coastal views 🌊😎! The highlights? Epic ocean backdrop shots and wild rock formations that look unreal (seriously, your phone gallery will thank you). Top Spots to Visit Yehliu Geopark Address: No.167-1, Gangliu East Road, Wanli District, New Taipei City, Taiwan Hours: 08:00–17:00 | Entry: 120 TWD This park serves up crazy rock shapes, Insta-worthy “alien planet” vibes, and plenty of chill walking trails. Flowers, windswept trees, and hidden corners for a snack break—don’t rush, enjoy the views. Queen’s Head Tip: Go early—the sun gets intense by noon, and you’ll skip lines at the famous Queen’s Head rock (trust me, you don’t want your selfie interrupted by crowds). The coastal park isn’t huge, so 1–2 hours is perfect. Best photo angle? Check the shaded rest stops for that sharp “blue-sea + head” combo! Getting Around Bus 953/1815 from Taipei is fast + comfy, and rarely crowded. Drivers are super friendly—just hop on, sit back, and watch the coast roll by! If you want peace and killer sea panoramas, skip the taxi and go public. Food Pack snacks—cafes are sparse inside. There are local seafood joints near the entrance if you get hungry after exploring! Quick Tips Tickets sold at the gate, cash preferred. Weather can change color water; bring a hat and sunscreen! #NewTaipeiCoast #NatureVision #TaiwanTips #YehliuAdventures

Spending a sunny day in New Taipei City? Here’s the ultimate itinerary to hit up Taiwan’s most iconic villages and dreamy landscapes 🐾🌄 First stop: Shifen Waterfall (226, Taiwan, New Taipei City, Pingxi District, 乾坑10號, open 09:00-16:30). Get there early to beat the crowds and soak in the mist of Taiwan’s “Little Niagara.” Don’t miss the Insta-worthy swing bridge and waterfall viewpoints! 🚶♂️ Next up, swing by Houtong Cat Village for a quick check-in with the cutest feline locals ever. Tip: the chillest photo spot is up by the stream away from the main square. Grab a snack, snap some cat pics, and enjoy the good vibes. 🐈⬛🍃 From here, head to Jiufen Old Street (Jishan St, Ruifang District, New Taipei City, Taiwan 224, open 10:00-20:00). Pro hack: visit Jiufen in the late afternoon! Crowds thin and you can catch the golden hour over the mountain rooftops. Sample street eats like taro balls, peanut ice cream rolls, and stinky tofu (trust, it’s worth it), plus browse quirky tea shops along winding alleys. 🌅🍡 Transport tip: Start at Shifen, then local train or taxi to Houtong, then bus or taxi up to Jiufen for sunset. It’s faster and you get the best flow! Pack a power bank, and bring cash—some stalls don’t do cards. Weather is usually sunny but bring a light rain jacket just in case. Friendly reminder: watch your step on Jiufen’s cobbled paths! #TaiwanVibes #JiufenOldStreet #ShifenWaterfall #CatVillage #tripdotcom
