Taro and Sweet Potato (Taro and Sweet Potato Tea House) Introduction
On Shengkeng Road in front of the Jiufen Shengping Theater, it serves as an important pedestrian walkway in Jiufen and is also one of the main scenes of the movie "A City of Sadness." Therefore, it is always bustling with activity during holidays. Along both sides of the staircase, it has naturally become a gathering point for tea houses, among which "Yuzi Taro" is a very special old tea house. Its entrance resembles a cave tunnel, and the interior features the vintage buildings of Jiufen Mountain Town, where the owner has collected many antiques, creating a strong nostalgic atmosphere. Since Shuqing Road is a staircase that ascends layer by layer, the tea houses are built along the slope, allowing visitors inside to enjoy beautiful mountain and sea views. The owner offers the local specialty purple sweet potato, which has a rich and soft texture. In addition, the shop also serves local dishes such as Mapo tofu and stir-fried mountain pork, which evoke a sense of familiarity.
