Jiufen (Jioufen)

Sender: Vickie Tsai
Jiufen (Jioufen) is a small town in the north of Taiwan. It used to be the centre of gold mining. 
When the mining activities discontinued, the town was forgotten. Later, several movies were filmed here inclusive of "A City of Sadness", which won first prize in the Venice Film Festival and Jiufen is now a popular tourist destination .
