[台湾] 第六天:九份老街 > 黄金博物园区

We woke up late in the morning and having breakfast just near our homestay. After that, we took Taipei MRT from Jiantan (劍潭) to Zhongxiao Fuxing, Exit 1(忠孝复兴站1号出口) and then took基隆客运 #1062 to Jiufen Old Street (九份老街)「台北-中山高-瑞芳-(九份)-金瓜石」线到九份. It took about 1 hour 30 minutes to 2 hours and ticket price cost NT$80 to NT$90.

 

九份老街
Jiufen is a small town in north Taiwan and wonderful place to visit if you love the architectural of old buildings and old street markets. It was once a famous gold mining town but now a tourist attraction. You can see a lot of lovely things that are so cute and unique. We arrived at Jiufen Old Street at about 11.30am.
