At night, Jiufen is full of picture-perfect spots no matter where you look! The retro streetscape with its red lanterns was so beautiful that I took tons of stylish photos and left feeling completely satisfied. The lantern release in Shifen was also incredibly magical, and it was so much fun to film the lanterns as they soared into the sky! Since we had a private chartered car, I was able to take my time organizing my photos during the drive. If you want to create wonderful memories, I highly recommend this tour!
