    I remember Jiufen, known as Miyazaki's Castle in the Sky. At first, I thought it was just hype, but when night fell, it truly was Castle in the Sky!

      Went in 2013. I visited Taipei First Girls' High School where Selina studied and Shida Night Market. Also went to Witch House where Wu Tsing-fong performed, and Jay Chou's Tamkang High School and Tamsui Fisherman's Wharf.

        🙄 Oh, right! And I also went to Nuannuan Station from Fish Leong's song 'Nuan Nuan,' Jiufen from Tony Leung's 'A City of Sadness,' the railway (Ruifang?) where Shen Chia-yi released sky lanterns in 'You Are the Apple of My Eye,' and Kenting, which has appeared in many idol dramas. It's hard to believe I managed to visit so many places with special memories on just a spontaneous one-week trip.

          Seeing you say it's been suspended for seven years... I opened my photo album, checked, and you're right... I also went in 2017... I still really miss that Pacific breeze in Kenting!

                  The guesthouse (B&B) I stayed at actually collapsed in an earthquake.

                    That's so dramatic!

                      I got my permit for Taiwan back in 2017 and still haven't used it. I initially wanted to go right after I got it, but then I thought the entry permit was too expensive, so I didn't end up going.

                        The entry permit wasn't that expensive, was it? Though I've forgotten how much it cost, haha.

                              Glad I've been. It wasn't that amazing, to be honest. Foreign islands are more fun.

                                Maybe it's because you don't listen to Taiwanese singers or watch Taiwanese variety shows, movies, and TV dramas, right?
