New Taipei Kulturelle oplevelser

Butikken til Shifen Sky Lantern-oplevelsen er meget nem at få øje på. Servicen, der tilbydes, overgår mine forventninger og giver fremragende værdi for pengene. Det var en fantastisk oplevelse, især når man rejser alene, da butikkens ejer tilbyder en gratis fotosession og videooptagelse. En meget god oplevelse, ja.

Our Shifen sky lantern experience was unforgettable! We came with wishes written on our lantern and left with tons of happy memories (and a lot of photos 😄). The staff were super friendly, energetic, and patient—they made sure our lantern was ready, guided us through every step, and became our personal photographers for the moment. They didn’t just sell us a lantern; they helped create a beautiful memory that we’ll bring home from Taiwan. Thank you for making our Shifen visit extra special! 🎈✨

Located in the Shiding mountains, "Shiding Hsu Family Noodles" is a highly popular family-friendly attraction in northern Taiwan. It combines traditional craftsmanship with fun experiences, allowing children to try the "shake, pull, release" noodle-making process firsthand and experience the spirit of traditional artisans. In addition, the most popular activity is undoubtedly the flowing noodle experience, where you can watch the noodles slide down the cold spring water, which is both cool and full of surprises! Finally, kneading your own fragrant scallion pancakes is a deep cultural journey that caters to sight, touch, and taste. It's perfect for a family to take a half-day trip away from the hustle and bustle of the city on the weekend.

Upon entering, guests are provided with comfortable slippers and water. The esthetician briefly introduces the treatment options but does not engage in aggressive sales tactics, maintaining a polite and gentle demeanor. This was my first time here for a blackhead removal treatment. Since I hadn't cleaned my pores in a long time, the process was a bit painful, but after it was done, my skin felt incredibly clean.

I really love the local vibe of this shop. I enjoyed sipping tea while wearing beautiful traditional clothes. The staff were incredibly lovely, friendly, and always smiling. They took great care of me. There were also cute cats, and the desserts were delicious, with a lovely tea aroma. The tea itself tasted wonderful. I wasn't feeling well, but after a few sips of tea, I felt much better. The shop's atmosphere is warm, clean, and very comforting. I definitely want to go back again! 💖🫶🏻🍵😍🥰

Yesterday, I visited Jiufen after a long time. The only difference this time was that I had booked a Qipao experience. I searched online and found "CHIPAO Jiufen Qipao Rental." Reservations are required in advance! On the day of the experience, the shop environment was small, simple, and clear. The owner, a kind lady, first let us choose our favorite Qipao styles. Let me just say... those who have trouble making decisions are in luck, haha! The owner gave us advice on the Qipaos and quickly and accurately picked out beautiful Qipaos from the rack based on her professional judgment! I still recommend that friends who want to try this do some research beforehand so you don't spend too much time choosing a Qipao. Although the rental period for this Qipao shop is very long (return by 7:00 PM at the latest!), you should spend your time taking beautiful photos! After choosing our outfits, the owner styled our hair into simple updos to match our Qipaos. The online description mentioned simple long hair updos. Although it said "simple," I personally think it was anything but simple. The owner meticulously styled beautiful updos, allowing all the girls to have wonderful memories in Jiufen. After styling our hair, the owner recommended small accessories nearby for us to wear. You can choose them yourself or politely ask the owner for suggestions. Of course, everyone can also bring their own before the experience day. Once the clothes were ready, it was time to choose suitable embroidered shoes. The shop provides black invisible socks, which you can keep! I recommend not choosing embroidered shoes that are too tight, as you'll be climbing some stairs in Jiufen Old Street, and tight shoes might make your feet uncomfortable. The owner also recommended some great photo spots for reference. As June begins, the weather is gradually getting hotter. The shop also provides small bags for the furry shawls, in case you get heatstroke, haha. The weather can be hot, but you must look beautiful! Before leaving the shop to go sightseeing, the shop offers temporary storage for your belongings. You can also switch to a small bag provided by the shop to match your Qipao. Since you haven't paid a storage fee to the shop, be sure to keep your valuables with you. Finally, thank you to the owner for giving us such wonderful memories and service, and thank you, Jiufen, for being so beautiful and amazing!

Claiming was easy and locations of the claiming area and blessing area are very easy to find (I just did my research and read the instructions and directions). They provide directions and instructions at the claiming area too. They suggested to just hang the prayer cards and set up the lanterns at home for convenience and that's what we did because it was a rainy day as well. The experience was smooth and we chose to do this as an alternative to shifen lanterns (not very similar but we don't want to contribute to the clutter, plus we get to bring this home as souvenir).

Jeg kan varmt anbefale at støtte Bedstemors Lanterne! Som 94-årig er hun der stadig med et smil, hjælper besøgende og sikrer, at alle får en god oplevelse. Billederne, vi tog med hende, er vores yndlingssouvenirs. Det er en lille virksomhed med et kæmpe hjerte – spring ikke dette sted over!

Jeg havde taget sølvler-ringfremstillingskurset hos Nimou i 2024 under mit sidste besøg i Taiwan og nød det så meget, at jeg tilmeldte mig igen på dette besøg! Jeg bør nævne, at jeg ikke taler kinesisk, og sprogbarrieren var ikke et problem! Instruktørerne er meget tålmodige og kyndige. Jeg anbefaler at komme med nogle ideer; instruktørerne vil forklare processen med at lave ringen, de vil hjælpe dig med at udføre din vision, og du vil forlade studiet med et unikt smykke! Det første billede er ringen, jeg lavede i 2024, og det andet billede er den, jeg lavede i dag!
