【一中街夜市】Yizhong Street Night Market in Taichung, Taiwan

Yizhong Street Night Market is a popular night market in Taichung. It's filled with TONS of delicious food stalls, small shops, and fun games. I was excited to cross it off my Taichung Bucket List and share this amazing experience with Gabriel with my friends from Bristol in October!

Unfortunately, I was having too much fun that I didn't prioritize taking pictures. But it's okay because I recorded videos, and I'm thrilled to show you guys the new adventures in my upcoming Taiwan video! 📷

Yizhong Street Night Market is a popular spot for students since it’s located near schools and universities. It has a lively and youthful ambiance, full of energy and excitement. So, expect large crowds, especially on holidays and weekends!

Gabriel won this cute little kitty for me, but instead of using a claw machine, he used this round machine. By pressing a button in the right place and time, the stuffed animal comes down like a gacha machine (扭蛋機), and a random prize comes out!
