Forged by time, step into a cultural journey through "A City of Sadness"
Xin Yu Canteen, located in Jiufen, is not only a restaurant offering Taiwanese specialty cuisine but also a cultural space that blends history and cinematic memories. This old house, built during the Japanese colonial period, served as an important filming location for the film A City of Sadness, which won the Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival. We uphold the philosophy “Forged by time, flavors endure,” allowing travelers strolling Jiufen Old Street to sit down and immerse themselves in the weight of history, feeling the warmth of home and a strong sense of human connection.
