Jinguashi Old Street Introduction

Qitang Old Street, located above the Gold Museum, was the commercial center for the lives of early miners. It was built during the Japanese colonial period as a settlement for Taiwanese people to lease land from Japanese mining companies. Located in the Jinguashi area of the JinGuaShi Copper Mine, it is also referred to as "Jinguashi Ginza" or "Jinguashi Old Street." The settlement is built along the mountain slopes, and there are still some residents living here. Compared to Jiufen Old Street, it has a less commercial atmosphere and fewer tourists, preserving the original appearance of a small mountain town.
