Half-Day Tour from Taipei to Keelung's Miaokou Night Market and Jiufen at Night [Japanese Guide]

Want to enjoy both Taiwan's classic tourist spots and local cuisine at the same time? This tour is perfect for those who want to experience local cuisine at the Keelung Miaokou Night Market, as well as the photogenic tourist spots of Keelung and Jiufen, both popular among Taiwanese people.

Keelung is a major port city in Taiwan that has long thrived through commerce and fishing. Surrounded by mountains on three sides, it has a history of developing both onshore and offshore bounty, and is attracting attention in Taiwan as a city of gourmet food and tourism.

Upon arrival, we will first show you the Colorful Houses at Masahama Fishing Port, a popular social media spot, and the remains of the Agena Shipyard, which was built during the Japanese colonial period and still remains today.

Afterwards, head to Keelung Miaokou Night Market to avoid the crowds and enjoy some Taiwanese B-grade gourmet food. Also known as "Keelung's Kitchen," this bustling spot is lined with unique food stalls that are rarely seen even in Taipei, and is bustling even during the day.

Enjoy some exquisite B-grade gourmet food that is still not well known among Japanese people, such as the delicious "thick crab soup" made with mushrooms and crab meat, and the famous "fried bread sandwich," made with fried bread seasoned with sweet mayonnaise and stuffed with plenty of ingredients such as boiled eggs, ham, and tomatoes.

After enjoying the gourmet food in Keelung, we will take you to one of Taiwan's most popular tourist destinations, Jiufen. At night, Jiufen offers a fantastic view of the lantern-lit streets, the famous Amei Teahouse, and the city lights overlooking the hills.

This is a new tour that will take you to Jiufen, a must-see tourist spot for anyone who comes to Taiwan, as well as Keelung's popular tourist spots and rediscover the charm of food that you won't find in Taipei.
