The moon hangs high in the sky, the streets still bustling. Fengjia商圈 neighbors Fengjia University, Chiao Tung Institute of Technology, and other school districts; the night market sits at Fengjia University’s side gate, stretching from Wenhua Road all the way to Fuxing Road, its clientele mostly twentysomethings. Thanks to its location near campuses and close to downtown, it has gradually become the flagship of Taichung’s night-market scene. What sets Fengjia Wenhua Night Market apart from other Taichung night markets is that it’s famous not only for food but also for every kind of shop, and it stays open later. In recent years the city government has actively reshaped the商圈, repaving roads, landscaping streets, and adding parking spaces that make parking far easier. Today the market’s fresh look draws even more shoppers, and the商圈 keeps expanding; it has become one of the “Top Ten Taichung Tourist Spots” chosen by popular vote. The goods on sale are dazzling: theme stores with personality stand shoulder-to-shoulder, bargain items and the hottest trinkets let you keep up with Korean and Japanese trends without effort—come feel the thrill and catch the youthful vibe. Market surveys show Fengjia and Yizhong Street are the two商圈 most loved and most frequently visited by young adults and teens. Trendy clothes and accessories, record shops, opticians, phone and accessory stores, books and stationery, print-and-bind services—every variety of business is here, mixing boutique shops with night-market stalls, all at prices everyone can afford.
