The Shida Night Market (Chinese :師大夜市; pinyin :Shīdà Yèshì) is a night market in Da'an District, Taipei, Taiwan. It is located near National Taiwan Normal University, whose name in Chinese is pronounced phonetically as Shida. [1] [2] [3]
Shida night market was a very popular night market given its unique shops, restaurants and fashionable clothing stores. However, as the area Shida night market occupied is close to National Taiwan Normal University, it has always been a place that many intellectuals called home. Due to resident complaints regarding the noise, trash, and people the night market attracted to the area, as well as government rezoning efforts, Shida night market is now much smaller than it used to be. [4]
Even though it is much smaller, Shida night market still retains its unique feel compared to other night markets. [5]
Many fashion accessories are sold here by a variety of businesses. Pork buns, pineapple buns, and crepes can also be found. Prices are relatively low, due to the large number of students that shop here. [6]
The night market is accessible by walking 500m (1600ft) north of Exit 3 of the Taipower Building Station of the Taipei Metro.

Night markets or night bazaars are street markets which operate at night and are generally dedicated to more leisurely strolling, shopping, and eating than more businesslike day markets. The culture of night markets originates from China and have spread globally with overseas Chinese populations. They are typically open-air markets popular in East Asia, Southeast Asia, and Chinatowns in several other regions of the world.
Taiwanese night markets are night markets in Taiwan that operate in urban or suburban areas between sunset and sunrise. A few, such as Huaxi Street Tourist Night Market, use purpose-built marketplaces, but most occupy either sidewalks or even entire streets that carry vehicle and pedestrian traffic by day. Some night markets in smaller side streets and alleys feature retractable roofs. Most night markets operate daily and feature a mixture of individual stalls selling clothing, consumer goods, xiaochi, and specialty drinks. The atmosphere is usually crowded and noisy with hawkers shouting and fast-paced music playing over loudspeakers. Taiwanese night markets have evolved over the years from small, local gatherings to noisy streets lined with vendors, who must adhere to regulations placed on their activities by the Taiwanese government.
