Jilin Night Market Introduction
Jilin Night Market has a history of nearly 50 years and is located near the Kaohsiung Post Office, adjacent to Kaohsiung Medical University, Sanmin Park, and Dalian Shoe Street. It primarily spans Jilin Street and extends to the surrounding areas of Shiquan Road, Rehe Street, Yongji Street, and Shenyang Street, known as the "Kaohsiung Medical Circle." The market is mainly focused on street food, offering a wide variety of delicacies, such as soup dumplings, fried chicken, braised snacks, shrimp noodles, bubble tea, shaved ice, dumplings, and red bean cakes. Due to intense competition and its location in a student area, it is characterized by its affordable and generous portions without sacrificing flavor, making it a top choice for nearby residents, students, and office workers. In recent years, Jilin Night Market has also become a popular destination for tourists, with visitors from nearby hotels around the Kaohsiung Post Office walking to the market daily to taste authentic Taiwanese snacks. Looking eastward from Rehe Street in Jilin Night Market, a straight road leads to the towering 50-story Chang Gu World Trade Center, which is a unique urban landscape within the night market.
