    • @USofEh
      @USofEh Год назад

      We did, and definitely wouldn’t recommend cramming it into one day! We decided while we were at the top of the Maokong Gondola that we would try to make sunset at Jiufen, because it was too smoggy to enjoy around Taipei, but really wish we would have dedicated a full day to Jiufen! Especially because we spent ~2 hours to get there, and everything closed up about an hour and a half after we got there! 😂 But we were leaving to Sun Moon Lake the next day and didn’t want to leave it out - next time we’ll take it slower!
