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 contrast between modernity and nostalgia. The seemingly outdated buildings are infused with new elements. Visitors will notice that the architectural spaces here are relatively small; originally, to save space and make it more efficient, each unit is not very large. Zhongxin Market, once a traditional market bustling with activity, has undergone a transformation to become a new cultural and artistic space.

Zhongxin Market Introduction

Zhongxin Market is located opposite the National Museum of Fine Arts in Taichung, encompassing a small area bounded by Wuqian 1st Street, Wuqian West 2nd Street, and Wuqian West 3rd Street. Built in the 1960s, Zhongxin Market was densely populated in the 60s and 70s, and it gradually transformed along with changes in industry. Nowadays, it has evolved into an artistic space, where cultural workers preserve the existing historical architectural style and redesign it into a cultural venue. Zhongxin Market is open for visitors, featuring a space for image creation and display, along with the sale of second-hand books and organic products. The market aims to promote a lifestyle aesthetic and a slow-paced attitude, serving as a domain for self-practice and a venue for the new generation of artists to exchange ideas. Gradually, Zhongxin Market has become a treasure trove for the new generation of artists and discerning tourists who appreciate beauty.
