If I knew Jiu Fen was such a nice place, I would have definitely brought my dslr instead of my digicam. =( I was told it's gonna be real crowded and it would be inconvenient to drag a heavy dslr around. Oh if I have done my research earlier, it would have been all worth it. -_-
Jiu Fen is very, hrm, what word should I use here.. Quaint and very picturesque! I just love the old-style townhouses, and the winding pavements which leads you EVERYWHERE (in Jiu Fen only, of course). If you're adventurous enough, try a different off-beaten path, you'll be surprise how quiet it is compared to the busy commercialized pathways, and sights which you just can't appreciate when you're surrounded by crowds.
Passed by a beautiful teal gulf before reaching Jiu Fen. Was so excited cause I've never seen a gulf before! =D
Remains of the 13 levels 十三遗层 - an abandoned copper smelting refinery during the prime time of Jiufen and Jinguashi.

We dropped by the Sulphur Valley at Yao Ming Shan. The sulphur smell was so strong!
At night, on to the famous Shilin Night Market!

just take it as one big piece, don't ask them to cut it up for you because that's not the way to eat it.
大香肠!When they say big, they really mean big!
Veggie dumpling
There's still more stalls inside!! Because of all the competition, when you walk in there will be a lot of aunty asking you eat at their stall. So stop and look at their menu only if you are really interested!
