I already lost track with the time. Taiwan’s sunset is earlier compare to the Philippines making it dark already on an earlier time. In Taipei City, establishments mostly closes at around 9 in the evening, what more if you are in the province area.
It was almost 6pm when we decided to leave Jiufen. We can only manage to cross out one itinerary on our list. We are heading to Shifen Old Street.
You might have known already, for I guess as you were googling about Jiufen Mountain Town in Taiwan, articles about the place being the inspiration for the 2001 Japanese animated fantasy film “Spirited Away” will surely pop-out your screen.
When I was doing so, I was extremely excited that I highlighted it in our list and put a note to not miss going there. I think I’ve already watched that film 3 times and I super love it.

I fell in love at Ximending as soon as we get off our taxi. We were rolling our luggage from the busy streets to the hotel, yet it didn’t matter at all. My eyes were already feasting at the shops surrounding the area. This neighbourhood is truly alive and I can’t wait to explore this side of the city.

Amba Taipei Ximending Hotel is situated in the middle of what we can say the ‘Harajuku of Taipei.’ Busy, Youthful, and glittering, just the right place to go if you really wanted to see Taiwan’s fashion, and subculture.
