Jilin Night Market (Jilin Night Market Food Street) Introduction
Jilin Night Market has a history of nearly 50 years and is located near the Kaohsiung Railway Station, adjacent to Kaohsiung Medical University, Sanmin Park, and Dalian Shoe Street. It primarily extends along Jilin Street and the surrounding areas such as Shiquan Road, Rehe Street, Yongji Street, and Shenyang Street, and is known as the "Kaohsiung Medical Circle." The main offerings at Jilin Night Market focus on street food, featuring a wide variety of delicacies, including soup dumplings, fried chicken, braised dishes, shrimp noodles, bubble tea, shaved ice, dumplings, and red bean pancakes. Due to fierce competition and its location in a student area, it is characterized by affordable and generous portions that do not compromise on taste, making it a top choice for local residents, students, and office workers. In recent years, Jilin Night Market has also become a popular destination for tourists, with visitors staying at nearby hotels walking to the night market to enjoy authentic Taiwanese snacks. Looking eastward from Rehe Street at Jilin Night Market, at the end of the straight street stands the 50-story Chang Gu World Trade Center, creating a unique urban landscape within the night market.
