About the area
Raohe Street Night Market fills a single street in eastern Taipei, running west from the Ciyou Temple gate. Its stalls sell pepper buns from clay ovens, stinky tofu, oyster omelettes, rice rolls, mochi and tofu pudding; the longer route adds a lunchtime walk around Songshan Market for dumplings, vermicelli and pork-rib noodles.
