Shifen & Jiufen Travel Guide from Taipei | Taiwan Travel Guide | Indians in Taiwan 🇹🇼

During our visit to Taiwan, we planned our day trip to Taiwan's Best-Kept Secrets: Shifen & Jiufen. The challenge we took was to plan everything on our own and see how much we could save in comparison to a guided day tour to Shifen and Jiufen. Shifen is famous for the Shifen waterfall which is like a mini Niagara Falls in Taiwan. Another beauty of Shifen is the tradition of writing good wishes on a lantern and then launching it into the sky. Shifen has some stunning natural landscapes and a lot of good options for eating Taiwanese Street Food. On the other hand, Jiufen is famous for its atmospheric streets, vibrant night markets, and panoramic views, making it a must-visit destination in Taiwan for an authentic cultural experience. Since we planned everything on our own and used public transportation to explore the hidden gems of Taiwan, we saved a lot of money, if you also want to explore Taiwan on a budget please watch our complete Taiwan travel series and subscribe to our channel. ▬▬▬ If you need our Travel related services please visit our website or fill out the form: ►https://veggiewander.godaddysites.com/ ► https://forms.gle/4fkNBdH9PHumKJ9MA ▬▬▬ ► Buy Travel Insurance: https://bit.ly/3O96VWv ► Buy Health Insurance: https://bit.ly/41VEGjT ▬▬▬ Connect with us on Instagram : Gagan's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/veggiewander Arun's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/arunvarunoficial ▬▬▬ Some of our best videos are: ► Japan: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAAXH74Eg1uzJOoZbzwDlnln5iDlZ_gkz&si=bVMTqcoMnIqDTX8q ► Maldives: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImXrwJvfFaU&list=PLAAXH74Eg1uxS6CpAoVYYTsVD1H8oahsn ► Egypt: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWHt5JRNueI&list=PLAAXH74Eg1uyPAMv1VSNHAznf3TEcsHkB ► Malaysia Travel Guide: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAAXH74Eg1uwM5k_3UMLrMDsh6AF5eS49 ►Singapore Travel Series: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAAXH74Eg1uwDzXkMemAQ6EcEaEpVME3K ►Hong Kong Travel Series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAAXH74Eg1uw99eaMFvKCcgQt3Dj-SbYO ► Turkey: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pctqfakbI3A&list=PLAAXH74Eg1uzNBeGszdLmOyBBvq-shIli ▬▬▬ #taiwan #taipei #jiufen #shifen #taiwantour #taiwantravel #taiwantravelvlog #taiwanvlog #taiwantrip #taiwantourism #travelvlog #couplevlogs #indianvlogger #indiantraveller #travelinfluencer #travel This video talks about: 1.

Hello guys welcome back to our youtube channel. A very good morning from Taipei city which is Inside Taiwan, which is its capital, Taiwan, today is our day three of Taiwan and we are going to explore two new cities which are also called New Tai Pai City and the North East Region. Off comes in Taiwan, whose name you must have heard, by the way, Shifen and Ju Fen are fine, the waterfall of Shifen is very famous and one of its railway track is called Old Street, it is very famous and the one of Zaf
an is The Old Street and the Old Market are very famous, in fact, as far as I have read, the Jiao Fen is also called the Saint Torney of Taiwan and there is a lot of rush here during the weekend because all the locals are from Taiwan or Philippines. They generally want to spend more time in Japan than other cities of Taiwan. Okay, yes, I have explained it to you a bit, now let us tell you how we are going, so we had two options to go to Shifen and Jie Fun. There was an option that we could go to
Klook because I had checked last night itself, we could take the package from Klook in which buses run and they charge you a round trip, first go to Shifen and then go to Jafan, that was the cost. I am talking to a guy in 00 Indian Rupee INR. I am 00 Indian Rupee. We were getting one day in which he will pick you from Shimming at 7715 in the morning from exit number five and drop you there at 6:00 in the evening. Around 7:00 pm, the second option was to explore on our own, so we chose to explor
e on our own. I thought the cost would probably be roughly the same but at the end of this day, I will tell you whether our cost was equivalent to Rs. 00 Indian rupees. Or a little less in which food is not included in 2100, only side seeing is included, three places, so now when we are exploring ourselves, we woke up early in the morning at 6:00 am and then after that our first which was the start. That was to come to Epai main station and there we needed a ticket, train ticket to go to Shifen
because the road that is being built for us is type to go from Shifen to Jiefang and then from Jiefang back to Tai Pai region being because Epai and There is a direct bus running in the middle of Ji Fang, which charges 90 Taiwanese dollars, so my thought was that the little evening area of ​​Ji Fang is worth exploring a little more. Old Street lights up a little white, so that's why We will keep Ji Fung in the evening and from there we will come back by direct catch, so now we are going to Epai
to Shafan Shafan to Jung Andon Jung back to Epai, there is no direct train or bus to go to Epai. If you have to change local two, then you will have to go from Epai, Rui Fang, R U I F A N G, then from Rui Fang, you will have to go, Shifen is located in Pinx District, basically, we will have to take the Pins Line, we go there, then give us tickets only here. Found it at Tai Pai station and I have got 68 Taiwanese dollars per person ticket from Efai to Shifan, but now I am going from Efai to Rui F
ang, then from Rui Fang, I will change my same train ticket, then to Shifan, ok. Yes, this is our route, till now the money for Shifen from my place is 6 Taiwanese dollars and after going there we will explore, see the waterfall, see the old street and I have heard that the food of Shifen and Shifen is very famous but I don't know, I am a vegetarian. How much is available and how much is not available? So let's explore Shifen and Ji Fen with Bury Wonder. When the train comes here, these people j
ust light the red light so that you can know that the train is about to come and you can't move ahead. Have to go, it's a good jugaad friend, this Taiwanese brother will visit today Xiao Fang Rui Fang Run Run Run Chiffon Saree Fang You will have to get off and then to go to Shifen you will have to change the train from platform number three The soil has run away ahead of us so please let us go It took 20 minutes and now we reached our first destination which is Shifan and from here we will go to
Shifan Waterfall, Shifan, when we were seeing it from the train, we came in this train, it was giving the feeling of a small toy train. -It was moving slowly, it took 20-2 minutes to reach here and on the way we were also seeing the market which is already in my list, we will go to the market also, it was feeling as if it happens in Vietnam. There is a market on the side and a toy train passes from the middle, it was the same feeling, so let's explore now, but it is raining very heavily here, l
et's see how we will be able to explore, but it will increase the fun, so let's go. Shifan border fall is most popular [Music] First of all, here is the Old Street of Chiffon where in a traditional you have to write some of your blessings or whatever good wishes you want and you fly it like this and then up into the sky and which is very It feels good to see how perfect it looks [music] There are so many non-veg options to eat here, but they should have all that, the bhajiya is thick, yes friend
, teach them, teach them, the fucker's potato fry is one mountain range on top. Rain, then teach them to make tea, make pakodas, make bread, make samosas. Why is my veil coming down again and again? Is this my veil, teach me? At least something fun has come in life. Here, everything becomes neutral. Optimus is hanging here. Even if you are eating fries, there is no salt and pepper in it, it is like neutral. Even in the taste, there is no food eaten. No, no, no, no. Whatever we ate yesterday, we
did not eat that dumpling. It had a neutral taste. To go to the waterfall, you have to do this. One has to cross the suspension bridge, there is a wide river below which is running in a fierce flow, the sky says that this is the Ganga which is running in a smooth flow, it is ours and you can reach there comfortably by following this trail. We will go to Shifan Water Wall, brother, we have just come over this suspension bridge and look at the views here, brother, this is a wonderful place, brothe
r, so we have come here following this trail and on the way there is a small waterfall. Which is quite big, not small but it is not main but brother, here it seems that we will get to see Nagara Waterfall of Taiwan, look at this, it is a tremendous view, it is very beautiful, we are having fun here. If you go towards the waterfall, you will also see such food markets on the way where you can eat food and buy souvenirs, but the waterfall is still ahead, the bigger one is the better one, this is t
he Nigra Fall of Taiwan, it means Shifen. The waterfall is our only destination for which we traveled so much and took a two and a half hour train ride. It is so cold that I am fumbling even while speaking. It is so huge that it is the widest waterfall in the whole of Taiwan. This is a very beautiful experience of the whole of Taiwan, but this little rain spoiled the fun because I had come wearing such good clothes and had brought glasses, but nothing would be possible in this rain, but it is ve
ry beautiful. [Music] So this was the main point, after this if you want to take an observation route, you want to do a little walking in this beautiful mountainous green region, then you can take this trail like us and there is a nice view, they have made another point to see. It is written that it is Waterfall Observation Route, so let's follow this route and roam around in this beautiful valley which was trekking, after this you people reach here and from here its monster form is visible. Fir
st we were there. We were standing and watching, we are standing here watching and learning, we are having fun, we are feeling like doing mudi mudi dance [music] So after that waterfall, we came back to this market, to the Old Street Market and here But this lantern which we have just seen is not a lantern, sorry, it is very famous. You can see how many of them there are, so you can also take one as a souvenir near me. I have also taken one as a souvenir, so it is not of every color because its
If something is written above, then the meaning is like I took this pink, pink stands for happiness, luck, so you can take whatever you like, if someone's child is weak in studies, then take this purple, brother, it is his good luck. Okay, so now let's go to the station and catch our next train because this train which will go to Rufa from Shifan runs once every hour. I had taken a screenshot of its time table. Now the next train will run at 1:0. So let's go once and buy tickets for the athlete
and then we will visit the market. So now we have taken a peanut ice cream roll which is very famous here. Tell me, its cost is 50 Taiwanese dollars and it is also tasty. What is inside it ? He said, this is peanut which was jaggery, meaning you put a jaggery strip on it and he added ice cream and this one was like a wrapper, it is good for vegetarians. After visiting this extremely beautiful hill station, we booked the ticket. Lee Hai Roy Fum Ki Aur Aayi, our train has arrived, we will go and h
ave fun in it. The station is very fun, so yes, our first stop today was Shifan. When we reached there, it felt like fun, very nice place. It is a small and cute station type, so you can also come here if you are planning your Taiwan series. So we should also come, basically, we are going back now, we have already boarded the train, Rui Fang is going back from Shifan and the ticket we have for one person is 19 Taiwanese dollars and if I tell you from Taipei to Shifan And then return to Shifan to
Rui Fang because from there I have to catch a bus to another place. If I tell you the whole thing, it cost me only 53 Taiwanese dollars. I am talking about a person, so till now you are doing well. The expenditure is within the budget, rest let's see. Now we will go from Rui Fang to Jui Farm and maybe go to a place there. Jui Farm is something like this. We will go there then let us tell you that actually no train etc. runs there, we have to go there by bus. If you have to go by taxi, then let
me tell you now how much is the bus fare. Brother, after getting down from Rui Fang station, you have to come out and these arrows have also been placed at various places. Now you have to go left and walk for 3 minutes. Then You will reach the place where you will find the name Mr. Jafan's bus. Please forgive me if the pronunciation of the name is wrong. The three-minute class that I was telling you would have been covered in just two minutes because we had caught the bus while running. Seen fro
m a distance, G says to Gun, "Continue, run away, bus. We sprinted and caught the bus. We caught it in less than two minutes, and the bus turned us away. At 15 dollars a person, we will reach there j fun j fun old." Street ok will show you j l street is also cool [music] So after 10 to 15 minutes bus ride we have reached Fan Old Street and this street style here is very famous, here you can see great You can eat food and drink, if you are a non-vegetarian then obviously the options for vegetaria
n are less but let us see and explore, you will get Bova tea, you will get some sweets, so you can eat those things, but there is night market here and things like this. It will be a little more evening then all the lights will be lit which looks very amazing but it is raining a lot outside so we are not on the street, there was a small lane inside because that lane is covered so now we entered there. So while exploring our today's second destination, Jafan Old [Music] Street for Vegetarian, I d
id not see anything else but I saw something like Gajak Patti, which is worth 20 Taiwanese dollars. Is jaggery and peanuts good? Apart from sweets, you will get a lot of options in the market. Vegetarian option is basically but there are less options for food. We have found this shop which has vegetarian option. In vegetarian, there were some vegetables like some spicy, fried, lotus stem and one fried noodles. So now we have ordered fried noodles, so let's see whether watery noodles come or our
Indian Chinese noodles come, let's see friend, these are the watery noodles that I was afraid of. Look, this is a complete mushroom dish. They have put this [music] I will try it and then I will tell you how it is. You are not looking good in appearance, it is enough to fill your stomach, but there is some masala, you can also fill your stomach, if it does not taste good then yes, this is a very vibrant market. You will get many options to eat, if you are a non-vegetarian and if you are a vegeta
rian and you like sweets a lot, then you will get multiple options like the cream puff we saw earlier, it was not very expensive, 65 Taiwanese dollars, chocolate puff, it is dried strawberry. Ginger, dried toffee, all these things are also there, there are very fancy shops here and very fancy things to eat and drink. Just now we also saw a vegan shop from behind, it was lying empty, poor girl, only one customer was sitting there, so it seemed like this. That yes, at least there is a savior of ve
getarians in this market, perhaps your stomach will be filled but you will not be able to taste it, because the taste here, and I mean, I have not been able to taste it. The noodles I had just eaten in the past are not fried noodles but gravy. Gave me noodles and ate ok, my stomach is full. I say it was like a nice market but this rain has spoiled the whole fun but still everywhere is very crowded here. Maximum people come here from Philippines etc. Philippines and Taiwan you know are neighbors
of each other so now we are leaving from here because we are done spending half an hour here and there are only a few markets if you want to buy something, you can buy bread etc., food and drink options. There are a lot of them and in the evening time, which I told you about, these are red in color which are attached to the lanterns, they light up and have a very good view at night, so if you want to stay, you can stay in the evening . Then you can go back by bus or train respectively as per you
r choice. From here I told you that there is a bus that will take you directly to Shimending which charges 90 Taiwan dollars but right now we are seeing that if we get that bus first then we will go by that bus and if we get that bus then we will go to Ruha station. First we will get a bus, then we will go by train, that is, from here to Ruha, then from Wanghang, we will have to take a train to Taipei Main Station, so yes, this is our fun walk through and now we will meet you in the next top, wh
at we are going to do. Will we go by direct bus or will we go intermittently? Yes, as we said, we will go to the bus stop and see which bus is coming first, then thanks to the number 965, which will take us directly to Shimending station and which took a person from us for 90 Taiwan. Dollars and ARU were doing full calculation so our round trip from Tie Pai to Shan then Shifen to Zi Fen from Zi Fen back to Epai because we had to cover two places was calculated in Taiwanese dollars 193 194 Taiwan
ese Dollars are just travel travel, I am telling you that if you put 200, then if I convert 200 Taiwanese dollars into Indian Rupees then it is roughly 500, it is around 50 in IR, which is very cheap, which is compared to which Clue us. The rate which was provided for Kluq was coming to one person, it was coming at 00 Indian rupees and now we have completed this journey in the same time duration for 550 Indian rupees, so see, now if you want to do the Kluak one, then you can do it at Kluak. You
can also do it, but what is there in that? You feel comfortable, you do not have to hop separately, you do not have to wait, you have to sit in the bus, train or bus once like Raja Babu and then the bus driver will drop you Raja. Like Babu, that is the comparison, now you see, do you want to look at comfort or is it okay to look at money? Now this bus will take approximately one and a half hour and now we are going to sleep and then now you will meet us in Shimending. It took almost an hour and
a half and now we have reached Shilin Market, which is one of the famous night markets of the whole of Taipei. Which is Shilin Market, if you put it in the maps, then there was a metro station just 100 150 minutes from there. It is only on walking distance and this market opens at 4:00 in the evening and stays till 12:00 in the night, so now we have come here, we will explore the market, show food, maybe eat some food and then have fun. Will let's go to Shalan Market [Music] Go Bhai, whether it
is in Taiwan or not, they caught all the octopuses of the whole world and brought them here and left the octopus here. They beat the octopus and turned it into powder and made papad into it. After making it into a dish and filling it with this vegetable, they are eating it in the forest, they are eating terrible things, one is octopus and the other is sweet potato. There is a lot of sweet potato cultivation here, yes, you can see only balls of sweet potato. If you like Shagar Gandhi then you wil
l get the delicious dishes of Shagar Gandhi here. For non-vegetarians, there are unlimited options in food and drink. Like we went to a night market yesterday, this is a similar night market, there are clothes, food and drinks. There are games, there is fruit juice, look, behind you there is a class market, there is a very good concept of night market, you get filled with street food, this concept is missing in Hong Kong and Japan, that is why maybe Taiwan is a more fun place [Music] So we used
to roam around in the night market. People have reached their hostels after eating and drinking. I am sure you must have enjoyed watching Jafin and Chefin with us. We made your entire trip within the budget, so you can thank us later. The way to thank you is to subscribe to our channel. You can like the video, share it around and I'm noisy. Are you enjoying our four country series in which we have already covered Japan, Hong Kong, Taiwan, we are still going on, tomorrow is going to be our last d
