About Jiufen Old Street
Early morning or late afternoon offers the most magical lighting and fewer crowds, while evening visits reveal the full enchantment of thousands of glowing lanterns. Autumn and winter provide clearer views and comfortable hiking conditions, though the area is beautiful year-round.
Allow 2-3 hours to fully experience the old street, enjoy local snacks, hang your lantern, and explore the surrounding alleys at a leisurely pace. A longer visit of 4-5 hours is recommended if you wish to hike nearby Jifen Mountain or explore the area thoroughly.
Jiufen Old Street is located in the Ruifang District of New Taipei City, approximately an hour from central Taipei via public transit. The area features steep, narrow, and uneven stone pathways, making comfortable walking shoes essential for visitors. It is advisable to visit on weekday mornings to navigate the narrow alleys more easily before peak crowds arrive.
Jiufen Old Street is located at Jishan Street, Shuqi Road, and Qingjing Road. The buildings with strong traditional style are built on the mountain, with rows of old houses, narrow streets and steep stone steps, high and low. The winding Jiufen Old Street retains the ancient lifestyle with a strong ancient charm. The red lanterns, narrow alleys, bluestone steps and mottled wooden buildings have provided inspiration for many film and television works. The old street also became famous again because of "A City of Sadness" and "Spirited Away". The long sea view of the North Coast is in the shape of a "Phoenix". It is a long stone staircase with many viewing teahouses and coffee shops. A good choice for accommodation in Jiufen. The cinema entrance and ticket office, movie information, six wooden chairs, old movie materials, posters, and projectors are like stepping back in time. Old Street Food The snacks in Jiufen Old Street are dazzling. We recommend Grandma’s Taro Balls. The store is located at 143 Kishan Street. Sweet soup or smoothie topped with various red beans and peanuts. The mixed taro balls are sweet, soft, chewy and refreshing. Another Auntie’s Taro Ball Shop, passing through the long and narrow shop, you can see a clear view of the sea. It is very pleasant to eat handmade taro balls and sweet potatoes while watching the sea. In addition, there are red glutinous meatballs, peanut roll ice cream, nursing long braised food, Jiufen tofu pudding, Jiudaokou beef noodles and other delicacies to whet your appetite and come and taste them. Old Street B&B avoids the hustle and bustle of the crowd. Staying one night in Jiufen is a good choice. Many homestays are built along the slopes, high and deep. At night, when the tourists dispersed, the old street suddenly became quiet, with only a few lights left, as if time had stopped. It is wonderful to enjoy such quietness alone.
The steep, cobblestone streets and numerous stairs present challenges for wheelchair users and those with mobility issues. However, some main street areas are more accessible, and helpful locals are usually available to assist visitors with disabilities.
