Taipei Travel

It's probably no eaggeration that one of the main draws of visiting Taipei is the vibrant night market scene. With as many as thirty different night markets in and around the greater Taipei area, as well as over twenty different food stalls recognised by the Michelin guide as worthy of a bib gourmand award, there's plenty to keep visitors occupied for many a night. The night market in the Shilin district is the largest, one of the most well-known and popular, and often the first one visitors head for. The main stalls are housed under the roof of the old Shilin market, but also includes stalls that have spread outwards to now occupy the neighbouring streets. The most famous cuisines on offer have been well documented in many guidebooks and online websites, and are well worth a try at least once even if it's not always to one's liking. But being adventurous can be a rewarding experience. Having already tried variants of the grilled sausages, we opted to skip these and instead tried the oyster omelette (not as nice as back home), the oyster vermicelli (extremely tasty, and a nice-sized portion), and the fried chicken pieces (wish it had been less oily and salty). For those in a shopping mood, there were also lots of shops that sold toys, souvenirs, clothes, and phone accessories. Be ready for the sounds, smells, and crowds, and also very full from the food.

I traveled here last year, December. The weather was so great!!!!!! In here, I walked with friend and saw many thing. Street food, people, moll, cars, cycles. . . It was very cheerful, very cityful. We eat some street food, walking a lot and buy some present for bring back to home. After corona, I want to go there again. I hope everything go well! 작년 12월에 다녀왔는데 정말 즐거웠습니다. 다양하게 보고 즐길 것들이 있어서 좋았어요. 매우 도시적이었고 활기가 넘치더라고요~

No visit to Taipei can be without a visit to Shilin Night Market. It is the biggest night market of all night markets of Taipei and you can get lost there easily. The market is ideal for snack foods from food stalls, which set up about 5 pm for the evening. I tried a big piece of flattened, deep fried chicken breast for 80 NT and it was very delicious. Also loved the freshly fried donuts from a vendor too. Tried an almond milk drink because the almond aroma in the air was so enticing. Shilin Night Market can be reached by getting off at Jiantan Metro stop and walking through exit 1; not to stop at Shilin Metro stop, which takes you elsewhere. The offerings at this night market are of anything and everything: clothing, footwear, toys, arts & crafts, you name it. Of course the food is the best of all and so much fun to taste - very affordable too. There is now a very large seafood food court consisting of many restaurant stalls, all competing for your business, underground. Seafood is very fresh here - just choose and they will cook it for you. This seafood area is underground and covered so it is ideal to visit during inclement weather. It is bustling and filled with locals having meals. The sales people will vie for your tourist business too.

The traffic here is quite convenient, with MRT and buses.There are many delicious foods, like Oyster Omelet and Shilin big sausage. You can eat while walking. When you walk in Shilin Night Market, you will see many interesting shops, such as clothing stores, toy stores, and more snacks.
