Yi Zhong Street is one of the most famous night markets in Taichung. Just 10-15 mins walk from the main train station and situated next to Taichung park, this is bar far the most accessible night market to the short-stay traveler and easily offers as much food and things to do as Feng Jia night market does. Crowded streets, exotic smell and all the hustle and bustle one would expect from a Taiwanese night market. Further along from the main night market section is Yi Zhong Yimin Shopping Area, a quiet enclosed shopping precinct with tables and chairs on picnic/sit down on, specialty snack vendors and live music on most nights.
