Keelung Miaokou Night Market

Centred around Dianji Temple (奠濟宮) on Rensan Road (仁三路), this market is one of North Taiwan’s most famous culinary destinations.

[1] While food stalls operate 24 hours a day, the market becomes particularly lively in the evening, making it a popular night-time attraction.

[2] Keelung Miaokou Night Market traces its origins to the presence of Dianji Temple (奠濟宮), which was built in 1873 during the Qing Dynasty.

The temple was relocated during the Qing Dynasty to its current location on Rensan Road, near what was historically known as Shiyinggang Creek (石硬港溪, now Xuchuan River 旭川河).

By then, over 60 vendours were operating in the area, and Miaokou Night Market’s reputation for delicious local cuisine grew to rival that of the temple itself.
