The Keelung Miaokou Night Market has even been recognized by the Tourism Bureau as both the 'friendliest night market' and the 'most delicious night market'. The history of Keelung Miaokou can be traced back to the late Japanese colonial era. The emergence of the night market is linked to the century-old Dianji Temple. At that time, the bustling Dianji Temple, with its strong incense offerings, served as the foundation for the early economic development of the Miaokou Night Market. A continuous stream of pilgrims and fishermen brought prosperity and flourishing to the area. The subsequent food business opportunities further propelled the development of the entire commercial district, forming the well-known century-old night market it is today. Keelung City, nestled by the ocean, has also developed its own local specialty foods. You can find dishes such as tempura, sandwiches, Dingbiancuo, cream crab, fresh seafood, and braised eel thick soup at the Miaokou Night Market. Thanks to Keelung's vibrant and diverse port culture, various international cuisines have also arrived and converged here, waiting for travelers to explore. The Miaokou Night Market boasts an extensive variety of culinary delights. From hearty meals like Dingbiancuo, sandwiches, chicken rolls, bean thread noodle soup, braised pork rice, original-broth pig trotters, and braised eel thick soup, to light bites and new tastes such as tempura, sausages, and bubble ice, the sheer diversity has earned it the reputation of being 'Taiwan's finest.' The next time you visit Keelung, consider stopping by the Miaokou Night Market as the sun sets, and let your senses revel in a feast for the taste buds. (Source: Keelung Travel Website)
