Located next to the university campus, one can see where the business comes from. This place is huge! Though the night market itself runs from north to south with a SW bend along one road for only about three to four blocks, the extended area is lively and full of additional restaurants, street vendors, gaming and other clothing or novelty shops. Once taking all this into account, Fengcchia is a two dimensional area that rivals Shilin or Ximending markets in Taipei in acreage.
There are also at least, two indoor malls which house additional shops, vendors and restaurants. If I were to include the extended streets and area, then we can easily quadruple the length of this market beyond the mapped area, with two additional blocks to the south of Fuxing Street and four to the north, past the main university gate, running outside the university walls.
In addition, there is a parallel street, running to the immediate west, Fengjia Road, which is also lined with more vendors shops and restaurants, but it doesn't stop there. Most of the streets that intersect and run between these two streets have more eateries, which in effect, again doubles the search area as one scavenges for that next food item. You never know, it could be just around the next corner.
The main water closet is located in the second floor of the mall, located at the midpoint of the official night...
Read moreGreat place to visit with a wide variety of Taiwan snacks to try and enjoy the night market atmosphere.
We stayed at the near by La Vida hotel (great place btw) and walked over to the night market all 3 nights to try different food.
The night market remains open till late night. It was a a bustling hub of activity at 11pm at night.
Wr started from the south entrance and progressively made our way towards the North. The mid point is where Fengchia university was located. There were another 2 streets to explore beyond the main one (more limited) shopping and food available.
Personal must tries: Beef cubes There are a few stores but the one in the middle tasted better.
Sweet potato balls We liked the one closest to Fengchia University. Costs around 4NTD per ball, it’s crisp on the outside but really fluffy inside. I could easily eat 15 myself.
bbq corn I liked the one near the south entrance. It’s actually opposite the road. It’s the sticky type and you can actually choose if you wanted it more “q” or not.
Taiwan sausage There is a very popular stall at the middle section in front of the university. (Near cosmed). This is the classic 大肠包小肠. 2 types of sausages, 1 wrapped in the other.
Other special mentions will include the duck noodles, pancake and takopachi.
Not really into shopping but there were the usual souvenirs shops as well as a...
