Thanks.

I saw the news saying that there is a new bus, Bus 965 to Jiufen but not sure if it will take longer duration.

Time-saving new express bus route from New Taipei’s Banqiao to Jiufen and Jinguashi begins operation Sep 10

Thanks bro! My first time going to Kaohsiung after so many years of going Taiwan lol.

" The agency said traditionally people traveling from Banqiao to the Jiufen area have to take a train or take a bus at MRT Zhongxiao Fuxing Station to Ruifang Railway Station and then transfer to a bus for Jiufen or Jinguashi and that such a single trip takes about two hours. With Bus 965, a single trip takes only about 80 minutes and no transfer is necessary, saving 30 - 40 minutes, the agency added."

I think this bus 965 route is good, you don't have to take mrt - train - bus, save a lot of transfer time.
If you are going shifen first, there is another bus going straight from muzha mrt to shifen.

I agree with Andrew. Didn't use them but based on what I read, u are better off on your own.

I saw this same pic pasted at the hotel I stayed when I went last month too. Not sure if this is something new... Because most of the times I rely on google maps for direction and which bus or mrt to take

If I intend to skip Shifen, Bus 965 will be faster to reach Jiufen Old Street?
