Hsinchu Dongmen Market: Hsinchu's hidden food paradise and hipster gathering place

Dongmen Market is a place I visit every time I come to Hsinchu. It is a traditional market during the day, bustling with all kinds of fresh vegetables, fruits and seafood stalls, full of the atmosphere of life. In the evening, this place quietly changes and becomes a hotspot for many literary and artistic youths to gather. The market is no longer just about the hawking of vendors, but has a special atmosphere. Specialty shops and cultural and creative stalls have gradually moved in, and the whole market looks particularly charming with the lighting, attracting many young people who love food and art. Here, you can not only taste a variety of local snacks, such as braised food, fried food, and Hsinchu's special rice noodles, but also many cultural and creative shops and cafes. This is a little place full of nostalgia, perfect for a leisurely stroll or taking photos.
