Similar to other night markets, Miao Dong Nigth Market is also gathered into a market by the activities of the temple. Years ago, whenever Chizi Temple host a celebration or ceremony, vendors would gather to this place, and later became regulars providing snckas to the locals and the students in schools nearby. The night market is known for the pineapple shaved ice, fried chestnuts, crystal dumplings, and Chinese meat balls.
Taichung offers many night market attractions like Fenchia night Market and Dong Hai Night Market, but Miao dong Night Market offers a little more historical background behind the market. The food here is quite different from night markets in other city as well.
