Taichung Attractions

忠信市場一角

Zhongxin Market has transformed from an old market into a performance venue for artists, showcasing a beautiful clash between modernity and nostalgia. The seemingly aged buildings now incorporate new elements within. Here, you will find that the architectural spaces are relatively small; initially designed to save space for more efficient use, each unit is not very large. Zhongxin Market, once a traditional marketplace, has undergone a transformation from its former bustling scene to become a new cultural and artistic space.

Zhongxin Market Introduction

Zhongxin Market is located across from the National Museum of Fine Arts in Taichung, encompassing a small area formed by Wuchuan 1st Street, Wuchuan West 2nd Street, and Wuchuan West 3rd Street. Built in the 1960s, Zhongxin Market was densely populated during the 60s and 70s, but as industrial patterns changed, the market gradually transformed. Now, it is evolving into an artistic space, where artists and cultural workers preserve the original historical architectural style while redesigning and planning the cultural space. Zhongxin Market is accessible for visitors, featuring a space for visual creation and screenings, as well as sales of second-hand books and organic products. The market aims to promote a lifestyle aesthetic and a slow living attitude, serving as a platform for self-practice and a venue for new generations of artists to exchange ideas. Gradually, Zhongxin Market has become a treasure trove for new generation artists and discerning visitors who appreciate beauty.
