Xichang Street Night Market Introduction
The 2010 film "Monga" filmed many scenes around Longshan Temple, Qingshui Lane, and Bopi Liao, which sparked a tourism boom in the surrounding area. The Xichang Street Night Market is located next to Longshan Temple. In the past, commercial activities were bustling here, but in recent years, the city government has reorganized the stalls, concentrating them in the center of the road. The vendors near Guangzhou Street mainly sell clothing and general merchandise, while food stalls are concentrated along Xichang Street near Guilin Road. Well-known snacks in the area include douhua (tofu pudding), qingcao tea (herbal tea), oil rice, and potstickers. After visiting Longshan Temple to pray for blessings, don’t miss a stroll down Xichang Street! Xichang Qingshui Lane, located within Alley 224 of Xichang Street next to the Xichang Street Night Market, is a famous herbal lane filled with the strong aroma of fresh herbs as soon as you step in. There are several shops specializing in herbal products, selling various types of fresh medicinal plants and dried leaves for at-home brewing. They also offer homemade herbal drinks on-site, such as qingcao tea, bitter tea, and roselle tea. It’s worth a visit to experience the quaint atmosphere and enjoy a cup of refreshing herbal tea!
