Raohe Street Night Market, Night market at Songshan District, Taipei, Taiwan.
Raohe Street Night Market is a 600-meter-long market corridor in Songshan with numerous food stalls, retail shops, and vendors throughout. The market offers everything from traditional Taiwanese dishes to locally made crafts and everyday goods.
The location began as a daytime marketplace in the early 1900s and transformed into a night market during Taiwan's economic growth in the 1980s. This shift shaped how the market functions today as an evening gathering place.
Black pepper buns, stinky tofu, and oyster omelets are signature dishes served at the food stands throughout the market. These specialties reflect the local food culture that visitors naturally experience while walking between vendors.
The market is easily accessible with direct access from Songshan MRT station and several parking facilities nearby. Coming early in the evening helps you avoid crowds and find the best selection at the food stalls.
Right at the market entrance sits Ciyun Temple, where visitors can watch traditional religious practices taking place. This proximity to an active shrine adds a cultural layer to the experience that goes beyond shopping and eating.
