Anyone who has watched Hayao Miyazaki's classic "Spirited Away" will definitely be very familiar with this sentence.

"Spirited Away" is an indelible memory in many people's hearts. This memory contains not only the classic lines, but also the bizarre and magical scenes.

The buildings in these comics are very distinctive, and have been used as clues by people to find the prototypes that Hayao Miyazaki referenced when creating.

At this time, two more voices appeared, one saying that Jiufen was in Taiwan, and the other saying that it was in Hongyadong, Chongqing.

Jiufen by ZT Zhouge Hongyadong by Lin Tianhao Jiufen In Taiwan, there is a small city with a strange name - "Jiufen".

At first, there were only nine households here, and people only bought Jiufen when they went out to buy things... In 1893, gold mines were discovered in the Jiufen area, and Jiufen prospered from then on.

A large number of gold diggers flocked to the village, and the small mountain village that originally had only nine households quickly developed into a town of thirty to forty thousand people, ending its tranquility and desolation.

However, it began to decline after 1957 due to exhaustion of the mineral deposits. Mining was finally officially ended in 1971. Jiufen's prosperity also faded. The houses were empty, the old streets were sparsely populated, and the noisy town returned to calm.

Although the prosperity that belongs to gold has faded, Jiufen's unique local charm has attracted many artists. They come here to remember the past and seek creative inspiration, injecting new vitality into Jiufen, which has been dormant for many years after the golden age has passed away. Perhaps

Hayao Miyazaki came here at this time.

The simple and changeable mountain city buildings, the colorful misty lights, the red lanterns that stand out in the dark, the mysterious Yubaba Hot Spring, the towering stone steps to the sky... can all be found in Jiufen.

The most distinctive thing about Jiufen is its houses. The houses conform to the mountains and are built one after another. The narrow streets and steep stone steps are high, low and winding. When walking, you feel like you are walking in a home.
