This was a nice half day to the waterfall, Shifen and Jiufen. The waterfall is nice. Shifen is quirky and it’s cool to release the lantern after writing on it! Jiufen is also a lovely, traditional area and cool to walk around. James stopped at a place for some local foods on the way back to Taipei which was a nice way to end the tour. Thank-you!
Great day trip
