Jao Ho Street has become a secondary road and the business has also declined. Therefore, the government set up a night market in 1987. It is the second tourist night market in Taipei.

Start at the main gate opposite exit 5 from Songshan MRT station and trawl your way past stall upon stall selling delicious and interesting street food. A big part of the great experience is watching the hawkers in action – they are like performance artists, in a way, unfolding their skill before a live audience! Our picks: the pepper pork buns are well worth the wait, although arriving before 6:30pm will save you many minutes in the queue that was snaking by 8:30pm; grilled squid; any of the tea stalls; pan-fried mini-buns; handmade nougat. The crowd was thronging but never overwhelming – it was always possible to find a place to stand and eat and not be in the way of passersby, then rejoin the moving crowd once we were ready.

Jiufen is a foodies paradise. Taste the amazing variety on offer. Onigiri, konpeito, taro balls, tea eggs, pineapple cakes, stinky tofu, king mushrooms, red bean cakes, amazing teas, peanut ice-cream roll, Japanese foods, Taiwanese cuisine—the list is endless. The smell of good cooking permeates the narrow lanes, drawing in unsuspecting visitors, as it did Chihiro’s parents in the movie Spirited Away. Come also to pay homage to Miyazaki’s anime Spirited Away. The parallels between town and movie are many: A Mei Teahouse, which is the inspiration for the bathhouse in the movie. The streets and staircases in the movie, so similar to the architecture of Jiufen. Food in all its wondrous variety. House of Ghost Masks. Remember the three bodiless heads in Yubaba’s living room? Gold. Jiufen was a gold mining. In the movie gold nuggets abound: payment, enticement, everywhere. Tunnels. Remember the opening scene where the family walks through a tunnel? There are many tunnels from the old mining days, most closed to the public. The main street strung with red lanterns. Tips Weekdays will be quieter. 2. Carry an umbrella. Unexpected showers happen. 3. You will enjoy recognizing the parallels between Spirited Away and the town if you watch the movie beforehand.
