Keelung Night Market, Keelung City, Taiwan
The Keelung Night Market is just a 7 minute walk from the Keelung train station and it is not to be missed. It is arguably one of the most famous and even best night markets in the country.
Keelung pronounced “Jee-long” is the northern most city in Taiwan. It is about 30 minutes by highway from Taipei city.
Keelung is famous for its seafood and shipping port. Once arriving at the train station or downtown, the smell of the ocean engulfs you. Large ships are docked in the large harbor and the boardwalk along the water is teeming with sightseers and residents.
The Night Market is centered around a local temple in the center of the city. Therefore, sometimes the night market is called “Miao Kou Night Market” or “Temple Entrance Night Market”.
