Huaxi Street Night Market Introduction
"Anyone want to eat snake gallbladders or drink snake blood?" This phrase is usually only heard at Huaxi Street Night Market. Huaxi Street Night Market is Taiwan's first tourist night market, located near Longshan Temple in Taipei. It is known for offering a variety of mountain products, seafood, and exotic delicacies, making it one of the most beloved attractions for both domestic and international tourists. Each evening, tourists can often be seen browsing through travel guides in search of delicious food. This place was once famous for snake shows, earning it the nickname "Snake Street." However, under the influence of conservation awareness, most shops have transformed into establishments offering healthy snake dishes, challenging diners' courage. The traditional Chinese archway at the entrance of the night market and the red lanterns along the way are quite distinctive. Many shops are well-established, with over 30 years of history, balancing reputation and quality. From the sweet soup of Beigang with its burned mochi, Yongbo's rice noodle soup, Hanji's shredded goose meat, Ayi's braised pork rice, to A-e's traditional mixed noodles, countless delicious dishes can be mentioned. These nostalgic traditional snacks seem to be the homemade specialties of the neighbor's grandma, each offering great tastes that are reminiscent of the past. You are welcome to come and taste them in person!
