Raohe Night Market, Songshan District, Taipei City, Taiwán
One of the oldest night markets in Taipei, the Raohe Street Night Market is a must visit destination! The epitome of a traditional Taiwanese night market, this 600 metre path along Raohe Street in Songshan District is packed with fun and interesting night foods and snacks, quaint shops and stalls, and carnival games with prizes.
At the eastern end of the night market outside Songshan Station is the Ciyou Temple, built by local residents during the Qing Dynasty era.
Tour groups tend to concentrate themselves around the eastern edge of the market. Individual travellers are recommended to walk directly past these groups for a nicer experience.
Before grabbing a snack at Raohe, take a stroll through the Clothing Shopping Outlet in Wufenpu, a hotspot for finding deeply discounted fashion in an abundance of shops located within a maze of alleys.
