How to get to Feng Chia Night Market

Located a little way out from Taichung Station / HSR and downtown, Feng Chia Night Market is located in Taichung’s Xitun District on Wenhua Road, near Feng Chia University.

The whole area is full of bright neon lights, big shops and most importantly, lots of tasty treats.

To get from Feng Chia Night Market from Taichung Station, it is around 6km away and takes about 35 to 45 minutes by bus depending on the traffic. Take buses 5, 25, 27, 35 or 45 for a direct journey there.

From Taichung HSR Station to Feng Chia Night Market, take bus 160 for the most direct route (the journey takes less than 30 minutes).

Feng Chia Night Market is pretty big, with around 1km of stalls and permanent shops located along Wenhua Road. The biggest concentration of food vendors is along the stretch of Wenhua Road between Fuxing Road and Fengjia Road (Feng Chia).

You’ll find the south entrance to Feng Chia Night Market here on Google Maps – note most of the stalls are about a 10 minute walk into the market (the south end is a little more sparse for food stalls).

If you are approaching from the north of the market, head to the Hi Life Feng Chia Night Market branch here on Google Maps and you’ll soon see the start of the market.

Feng Chia Night Market opening hours

Feng Chia Market is open from 1pm to 1am daily* – the Wenhua Road closes to traffic from 1pm daily (well, apart from the odd moped).

*Please note that most of the Feng Chia Night Market food stalls don’t fully open until around 5.30pm onwards and most have closed by midnight.

The night market is also free admission – but brings lots of cash to enjoy lots of food and play on the claw machines and arcade machines.

Hotel near Feng Chia Night Market

We stayed at Hotel 7 逢甲 on our latest March 2026 visit to Taichung. We primarily picked this hotel because it had a separate lounge and mezzanine bedroom plus it was a very short walk to Feng chia night market.

What we also liked about Taichung Hotel 7 is that they had a rooftop area / terrace with several sofas, free air hockey and table football plus complimentary soft drinks and a coffee machine.

The hotel also offers an inexpensive laundry service and breakfast served in a fun upside down themed diner.

Arriving at Feng Chia Night Market in Taichung

The best advice we can give is to arrive hungry and there must be over 200 food stalls at night – there is something to suit all budgets and tastes.

We reckon you can eat really well here from several stalls for less than NT$300 (£7 or $9 USD) depending on how hungry you are.

As the market is located near to the Feng Chia University campus, many students volunteer and help out on busy nights offering help and providing maps – you’ll see them wearing yellow vests and carrying ‘English information’ boards.

They also have a help-desk at the market located roughly here – to note we’ve only visited Feng Chia Night Market on Friday nights and the weekend so the help desk might only be here at busy times.

The atmosphere at the market is great and we’d highly rate it as one of the best night markets in Taiwan.

If you’ve been to the Gongguan Night Market in Taipei, this is the same kind of set-up; authentic food, lots of local visitors, very few tourists and lots of hungry students who know the best stalls.

Feng Chia Night Market is fantastic as the food stalls have to be good quality and value for money or the local population and students wouldn’t keep returning.

Foods to try at Feng Chia Night Market

Honestly, we cannot recall such an epic selection of Taiwanese street-foods or international foods – this really is the best night market in Taichung; damn tasty too!

On a recent trip, we spent about two hours here one Friday night. We arrived around 6.30pm after being dropped off from this Gaomei Wetlands KKDay half day tour and whilst a little quiet at the start, by 7.30pm it was bustling.

As the students were on campus, the road quickly filled up with young and old eating lots of amazing food.

The biggest queues and most popular food at Feng Chia Night Market is usually the smaller snacky stuff.

For instance, the biggest queue of the night on our visit was the sweet potato stall (selling candied sweet potatoes and sweet potato balls) at the northern entrance to the market – although it may have been popular because it was literally the first stall or because prices were cheap.

A small portion of sweet potato balls cost just NT$40 for 10 balls or NT$50 for the candied version.

Another busy stall was the ‘Michelin Bib Gourmand’ awarded pork pepper bun stall (along Yinghe Street here on Google Maps) called 帝鈞碳烤胡椒餅 / Dijun Grilled Pepper Pan Cake. They literally only sell the pork buns (NT$60) and the queue was huge.

This is also a great place to try Taiwan dishes like grilled or fried mushrooms (usually from around NT$100 for a MASSIVE portion), pork rolls with scallion, flame grilled beef cubes plus the usual ‘favorites’ like stinky tofu.

One of the most popular stalls was Cola’s Homemade Grilled Clams, which was one of the cutest food stands we saw all night with a lovely themed seating area.

It has been on several local TV programmes and a small bowl of soup or stir fried clams starts from NT$110 or a large bowl for NT$200 – prices correct as of our March 2026 visit.

On our latest Taichung visit, we managed to get a seat – well, a little plastic stool but it still counts.

We shared a small bowl of creamy garlic soup clams and watched as it was cooked to order. This is our kind of seafood dish – you can pay to add extras like enoki mushrooms (NT$15), noodles NT$20, fried soy milk skin or scrambled egg (both NT$25).

Other soup flavors include Thai hot and sour and Korean kimchi.

Another fun stall was the drinks station themed like a Taiwan gasoline / petrol station called Zhongyin Self-Service Beverage Station – how do they think of these ideas?

On our latest Fengjia night market visit in spring 2026, one of the biggest queues was for a pan scallop skewer stall, served in butter and a choice of seasoning. One skewer is NT$60 or 2 for NT$100. It was flaming fantastic food (sorry not sorry).

Another popular stall was Huangji Sesame Oil Chicken 黃記麻油雞, a local Taichung sesame chicken noodle stalls with massive vats of vermicelli and chicken bubbling away – this was a seriously long queue! And now wonder as it smells so good and starts from just NT$30 a portion.

And last, but certainly not least, we ate black tea stinky tofu at Fengchia night market – choose from a large two person portion of stinky tofu for NT$100 or a smaller set for NT$70. Plus choose from sides like kimchi and basil.
