On a recent trip to Taiwan,Republic of China-ROC we visited the beautiful "The Xuan Zang Temple" and traveled on the rail system to the Ruifang Station to visit the Ruifang District. At each of these locations the visitors centers offered interesting stamps for visitors as a momento of their visit.We found them to be fascinating- I have images of those beautiful stamps. . . . . #ruifang #ruifangstation #ruifangdistrict #taiwan #taiwanroc #xuanzangtemple #templesoftaiwan #waynesalvatti #visittaiwan #instataiwan #taiwanhighspeedrail #taichung #jiufen #jiufendistrict

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.

The Gold Museum shows how cruel Japanese were to British POWs. It was one of the main highlights of this Museum. Of course, in WW2, Japanese POWs were treated much worse in other frontline by Americans or British, but they keep quiet. It's fun to see the exhibitions that show Japanese human rights violation always. Chinese tourists must be satisfied with this reproach to Japan. On the other hand, Japanese family who were there looked feeling down. Very good exhibition to keep Japanese tourists away from this attractive tourist destination !! All Taiwanese city officers must come to this museum to know how to avoid Japanese tourists. 本黄金博物館では、日本軍による連合軍捕虜への虐待行為が非常に過激に展示されています。シンガポール陥落時に捕虜となった主には英国軍人への対応が非難されています。当時は現在のように人権が重視されない時代であり、もちろん日本人への白人社会の差別や、日本軍捕虜への徹底的な連合軍側による殺戮などもありました。その上で、７０年以上も前の対応を改めて金採掘の博物館に大きく展示することには、その意図を感じずにはいられません。現在、訪問者の多くは日本に友好的でない国からの団体客であり、日本人旅行者への雰囲気も良好ではありません。敢えて日本人が訪問するべき場所ではないと考えます。
