For a foodie, the first thing you search for whenever you go to a place is not where there are beautiful attractions, but where there are delicious food. The place to be introduced here is famous for its delicious food. Anyone who travels must go to the night market here. Maybe you'll guess a country in Southeast Asia, but congratulations on the wrong call. This place is Taiwan, and the food location is Fengjia Night Market, the largest and most famous tourist night market in Taiwan. In general travel programs, Fengjia Night Market is also a Taiwanese food spot that is often introduced. The numerous cheap and affordable foods make people salivate.
Fengjia Night Market is located in Xitun District, Taichung City, , and is surrounded by a wide range of food stalls on both sides of the road. Every night comes, Fengjia Night Market becomes really lively. Every day, it is bustling with people coming and going, and there are many accommodation hotels around.
Fengjia Night Market has always been cheap, delicious, special, and a wide variety of snacks to attract tourists. Especially in this way, you can taste Taiwan’s unique innovative snacks, such as Fengjia 4 in 1, crepe , pepper cake , honey lemon aloe vera, etc. Generally, these innovative snacks are first created by Fengjia Night Market and then spread to other places, such as Taiwan’s famous salt crispy chicken .
From the night market to the end of the night market, there are a wide variety of delicious snacks, you can eat from each stall to that stall until you are full. The point is that the snacks here are very cheap, which is really a blessing for the vast number of foodies. In addition to snacks, there are many shops facing college students at the gate of Fengjia University . The price is cheap and practical, such as glasses, clothing, cosmetics, mobile phone accessories, etc.
However, such a popular night market has been on a downward trend in the past two years. In the past 10 years, the rent for Pegen Sunshine, one of the four old shopping malls in Taiwan, has been reduced from 40,000 to 10,000. Many stores cannot be rented out, and their turnover has dropped by at least 20-30% in the past three years. Sublease does not require a transfer fee.
In response to this phenomenon, the owner of the snack stall in Fengjia Night Market believes that it is caused by mainland tourists. Because of the opening of the Southeast Asian market, many mainland tourists have traveled to Thailand, Malaysia, , Indonesia, Philippines, and other countries. Therefore, the number of people traveling to Taiwan naturally decreased, and Fengjia Night Market is no longer as popular as before. This is even a common problem facing the entire Taiwan tourism industry.
However, the upright Taiwanese people feel that this is caused by the mistakes made by the night market themselves. Many people complain that Fengjia Night Market parking lots are too high, and the snack prices in various stores are also soaring. Moreover, as the night market expands outward, the phenomenon of snacks in many stores is too serious. After walking around, there are only a few main snacks. So, even local Taiwanese are not very willing to go now.
In response to this situation, some people predict that the once lively Fengjia Night Market will significantly reduce the shops in the next 10 years, and even the only price stall in front of Fengjia University is left. Vendors in the commercial area can only queue up at the school gate. Many netizens lamented that they really missed the delicious and cheap snacks that used to be.
In fact, this problem at Fengjia Night Market not only occurs in Taiwan, but food streets in many cities in mainland China face this problem, such as Hubu Lane in Wuhan.
