#Great Places in October 2024 Taiwan's night markets are a paradise for eating, drinking and having fun. Night markets in various places have their own characteristics. Tourists will not miss these check-in attractions. As a famous cultural city in Taiwan, Tainan has many famous night markets, such as Garden Night Market, Dadong Night Market and Wusheng Night Market. Located in the North District of Tainan City, the Garden Night Market is known as the largest night market in the south. It is one of Tainan's iconic attractions, attracting countless tourists to taste delicious food and enjoy the nightlife. Dadong Night Market is the iconic night market in the East District of Tainan City. Although it is slightly less famous than the Garden Night Market, its unique flavor and hot snacks still make people linger. Wusheng Night Market is the oldest night market in Tainan, founded in 1984. It is full of nostalgic atmosphere, allowing tourists to taste Tainan's profound cultural heritage while tasting delicious food.

We chanced upon this fried rice booth at wusheng night market and decided to give it a try after seeing a queue. We ordered the egg shrimp fried rice with mullet roe. The fried rice looks pretty simple but turned out to be delicious! All of their fried rice are freshly cooked upon ordering. #fallishere

There is a pasta shop located in Tainan night market (Wusheng Night Market) selling a variety of pasta at an affordable price. The pricing starts from TWD100 depending on the type of pasta you ordered. We ordered the cream sauce pasta with bacon and it only cost us TWD100! The pasta tasted fresh, with lots of bacon and the spaghetti noodle is cooked just nice. For the price of TWD100, what more can we ask for! #fallishere

There are a wide range of food vendors, game booths as well as clothings stalls. You can easily spend 2-3 hours here. It can get extremely crowded at a later timing or on weekends. #fallishere

As a half-Tainanese, I have lived in Tainan for about five years. Wusheng Night Market is one of my favorite night markets. Locals often come here to buy dinner because there are so many delicious foods here. So I would like to recommend to you the foods I often buy here. First of all, I want to tell you that the food in Tainan is sweeter, please respect the local culture, but it’s not like the rumors that all the food is ant-man, it’s not that exaggerated 😂 I personally think that the 80% sugar here is almost equivalent to the normal full sugar in Taipei🤔 So I almost always order 50% sugar when I order drinks here. If you’re worried that they’re too sweet, I suggest you order 30% sugar! Recommended food: 1. I have been eating Ale Steak for five years in a row. I still buy it when I go back. The soup is delicious, rich and sweet, and the meat is good, but in fact, I am eating it more for the nostalgic taste of my student days. 2 Dongshan Duck Head, the middle stall, the sign with red letters on a white background, don’t make the mistake, it’s very tasty and not too strong compared to other Dongshan Duck Heads. Your mouth won’t burst after eating it. As far as Dongshan Duck Heads are concerned, this one is cheaper and has a high CP value. 3-speed Limai Shawarma is located near the parking lot. Next to it is the Takoyaki shop. There is always a long queue, even before the shop opens. The outside is crispy and the inside is tender. Every bite is delicious, but the portion is a bit small, 50 yuan per portion. 4. Crispy pork ribs, priced at 50, 100, 150. They are crispy and delicious, with a fragrance that spreads from ten miles away. When buying, you can ask the boss for crumbs. They are crispy and delicious, super refreshing! 5 Three Brothers Crabs, available in garlic and shacha flavors, with shrimp and crab. I personally like the garlic flavor, and it’s delicious when eaten with wine. If you take it home, add some noodles and mix it, it’s a perfect match! 6 Amei Guava. The fruits here are all carefully selected. They are not cut from fruits that are about to rot. Moreover, the boss is very generous. Customers can try the whole piece directly. Just tell the boss which one you want to try and he will open it for you to eat. The above are what I buy frequently. I’ll buy some other things occasionally, but it all depends on my mood. I recommend them to everyone. You can try them next time you visit the night market in Tainan.
