New Taipei Workshops

It was a very nice and pleasant experience. It's a sunny day, we went there with a tour bus which walked us to the store itself, then we got given the 4-colour lantern and provided with black calligraphy pen to write our wishes, each colour represent a different area of life, e.g. health and wealth etc. We wrote our lantern inside the shop before going outdoor. There are staff using our phones to taking photos and videos of us on the train track and gave us poses to take pictures of the different sides of the lantern.

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! 🎈✨

I highly recommend supporting Grandma’s Lantern! At 94 years old, she is still there with a smile, helping visitors and ensuring everyone has a great experience. The photos we took with her are our favorite souvenirs. It’s a small business with a huge heart—don’t skip this spot!

I had taken the silver clay ring making class at Nimou in 2024 during my last visit to Taiwan and enjoyed it so much I signed up to take it again this visit as well! I should mention I don't speak Chinese and the language barrier was not a problem! The instructors are very patient and knowledgeable. I reccommend arriving with some ideas, the instructors will explain the process of making the ring, they will help you execute your vision and you will leave the studio with a one of a kind piece of jewelry! The first photo is the ring I made in 2024 and the second photo is the one I made today!
