Xichang Street Tourist Night Market

Many scenes from the 2010 film 'Monga' were shot near Longshan Temple, Herb Alley, and Bopiliao, which subsequently spurred a tourism boom in the surrounding area. Xichang Street Night Market is located right next to Longshan Temple. This area was historically bustling with commercial activity. In recent years, the city government has re-planned the stalls, centralizing vendors in the middle of the road. Vendors near Guangzhou Street primarily sell clothing and general merchandise, while food stalls are concentrated on Xichang Street near Guilin Road. Famous local snacks include douhua (tofu pudding), herbal tea, oil rice, and potstickers. After visiting Longshan Temple to pray for blessings, consider taking a stroll down Xichang Street! Xichang Herb Alley, located in Lane 224 of Xichang Street next to the Xichang Street Night Market, is a renowned herbal alley. Upon entering, a strong scent of herbs immediately fills the air. Inside the alley are several specialized herbal shops selling a variety of fresh, green medicinal plants, as well as dried herbal powders. Visitors can purchase these to brew at home. The shops also sell homemade herbal drinks such as herbal tea, bitter tea, and roselle tea. Why not take a walk to experience this ancient-feeling alley and enjoy a cup of sweet and refreshing herbal tea!
