When you come to Hualien, you don't have to rush your itinerary. Just taking a slow walk in the city can let you feel the unique leisurely atmosphere of this place. Start your taste journey at the Dongdamen Night Market with grilled corn, fried egg scallion pancakes, and local specialty mochi, each bite full of Hualien flavor.

Whenever I go to Dongdaemun Night Market, I have to visit the Aboriginal Street. I randomly found a hot stir-fry restaurant and ordered a lot of dishes. I thought they were pretty good, but the grilled fish we ordered was delivered to the wrong table, so it was a pity that we didn’t get to eat it. 🥹 Next time you come, you must try their grilled fish🔥 #foodie

The island tour started on April 10th and we came to Hualien again. Hualien has a lot of delicious food. When we come to Hualien, we must visit Hualien Night Market and eat seafood. So the first day's dinner was decided to be "Hualien Copper Plate Grilled Scallops" in Dongdaemun Night Market. . The store provides spacious indoor seats, and is thoughtfully divided into outdoor and indoor areas. In the outdoor area, you can feel the singing performances of street performers up close. In the indoor area, you don’t have to worry about encountering the most annoying rain when visiting the night market. In addition, the cute lighting adds a romantic atmosphere. There are also comfortable sofa chairs and internet-beautiful hanging chairs that I have never seen in the night market. The lighting is beautiful and the atmosphere is good, which is quite good for taking pictures. . We ate that day~ 💓A serving of salt and pepper conch contains 7 pieces, and costs only NT$50. It is fresh and easy to peel, and the conch meat is chewy. It is perfect with a refreshing beer. 💓 The Hokkaido scallops are big and juicy, and the tender abalone is full of seafood flavor. I will order these two again next time I come. 💓Deep sea grass shrimp, firm and plump meat 💓A skewer of grilled scallops costs NT$50 and you can choose any flavor. If you have difficulty choosing like us, the store also thoughtfully provides the "whatever" flavor for customers to choose. 💓Baked scallops NT$50 each Tempting milky aroma, high Cp value🥳 It's really good to eat fresh seafood barbecue starting from 50 yuan. Next time I will try its clams and the big oysters that I didn't eat this time😘😘🍻🍻 . #Dongdaemun Night Market #Hualien #Taiwan Night Market Food #BBQ #Shrimp #Scallops #Night Market #Good Place for Parent-Child Holidays #Dinner #Abalone #Ring Island Road #familytravel #Afternoon Tea Recommendation

After eating and drinking, of course you have to have a bowl of dessert to complete the meal at the night market. This Yida Snow Ice is a great representative of Dongdaemun Night Market. The stall number is D44 Just looking at the many signatures and pictures on the signboard and the fruit-filled appearance makes me feel refreshed both physically and mentally. Let's take a look at the items. Although the prices are not low, one bowl is just right for two or three people. There are actually quite a few flavors to choose from. Although the price is not cheap, you can see that each snowflake ice block is made of real fruit. You need to eat healthy to be satisfied. This is also a ice cream shop that has won many awards. I originally wanted to try the most famous signature mango shaved ice, but it was sold out, so I chose the second choice, strawberry shaved ice. You don't need to add anything else to the ice, just pour some condensed milk on it and you can eat it. A full bowl is so rich. A full bowl of it is quite filling and very solid. It is quite sweet. If you are worried, you can ask the boss to use less condensed milk. Actually, this bowl of ice is too much for two people. It's really a generous portion. Because there are strawberries in the ice cubes, you not only eat ice and condensed milk, but also a lot of strawberry flesh. It is a double satisfaction in terms of texture and taste. #Where to go in summer# Summer food guide

Don't miss this high-value seafood skewers when you come to Dongdaemun Night Market. If you want to eat seafood, this is the right stall. The stall number is E38 You can see some pretty amazing items: conch, squid, scallops, meat skewers, lazy shrimp, scallops, grilled oysters, etc. There is also beer that goes perfectly with skewers. The point is that everything is 50 yuan!!! Some products also have seasonings. There are many choices here. You can choose to eat in or take out. I waited about 8 minutes in line to order and about 20 minutes to wait for the skewers. There are a lot of people waiting, so I suggest you order your food first, then go order some juice, and send one of you to the seating area to wait for your number to be called (there must be someone here so that you can find someone when your number is called) Behind the ordering counter is the skewer area Ding ding!! The food is on the table. It's really a good deal for only 250 yuan for a plate like this. We ordered lazy shrimp, grilled scallops, grilled squid, beef skewers, and lamb skewers. One plate may not seem like much, but it can satisfy your desire to eat seafood with high CP value. The taste is a little salty, but it's really delicious and not stale. I recommend you to try it when you come to Dongdaemun Night Market. #Where to go in summer# Summer food guide

It’s been a long time since I last visited Hualien! During the Qingming Festival holiday, I decided to take a trip to Hualien. Of course, we have to visit Dongda Night Market. Fortunately, I came here to shop and bought a lot of dinner. It didn't take long for the crowd to get bigger and bigger. I bought a big hot dog and pig blood cake. Fortunately, I didn’t have to queue up to buy them~🤣

As the most famous night market in Hualien, it is a culmination of all the local night markets and a must-see for tourists. The environment is clean, the food is diverse and full of local characteristics, and influenced by the Night Market King program, more and more people will come.

This time I came to Dongdaemun Night Market in Hualien. I was looking forward to the delicious food here, especially the famous steak. I chose a popular steak stall, which only cost NT$300, which was a great value for money. When the steak arrived, I was immediately struck by how thick of a cut it was. The steak, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, exudes an enticing aroma, and paired with the rich black pepper sauce, the flavor of the whole dish is further enhanced. Every bite was filled with the perfect combination of gravy and spices, making you want more. There was a layer of fried noodles under the steak, which was an unexpected surprise for me. The smooth texture of the fried noodles was a perfect match with the thick cut of steak. The fried noodles absorbed the juices from the steak, making every bite full of rich flavor and giving me an indescribable sense of satisfaction. During this food tour at Dongdaemun Night Market, I not only tasted delicious steaks, but also enjoyed the lively atmosphere of the night market. Every bite is the ultimate enjoyment for the taste buds, making me fall in love with the food culture of this city even more. This night market experience will become an indelible and beautiful memory in my heart. #2月好地方2025

After the Spring Festival, especially after the Lantern Festival 😅 I feel that people are slowly returning to live in other counties and cities. At the scenic spots and the beach, the northeast wind has started to blow again. There are really not many people walking or running. The whole city is quiet.

It has been lit for several days since the opening🎇 without mercy ✨ It's another cold week, be happy in the future😋 #NewYearDestinations2025 #trip #LanternFestival #Taiwan

It feels like the Spring Festival was just a few days ago, but we have already been working for many days. The New Year atmosphere has slowly faded away. The lanterns on the road 🏮 have also slowly disappeared because the Lantern Festival just passed yesterday. Even though it is sometimes raining heavily and sometimes sunny in February, fireworks are still set off to celebrate 🎇🎆 The Lantern Festival and Valentine's Day should still be happy😉🎀❤️ Hualien's Pacific Lantern Festival, on the Pacific Ocean 🏖️ Tonight is the most appropriate night in the past month♥️ Full of natural decorations, very suitable for today✨ After the Spring Festival.

#JanuaryGoodPlace2025HualienDongdamen Night Market I happened to encounter the water dance light show, flowers in full bloom, and the surrounding lanterns added color to the night market. The parking lot opposite was super expensive during the Spring Festival. It was my first time here and I parked there for half an hour and it cost 70? , accidentally exceeded 2 minutes ahhhhh. There are a lot of people at the night market, many of them are shooting balloons. His is a three-in-one, quite big, with a lot of aboriginal food. His trash cans look like small vendors, very cute. You can go and have a look if you have the chance.

As night falls, the lights in Hualien City come on. One-year-old Beibei sat on his father's shoulders with his eyes wide open, deeply attracted by the colorful lanterns. Lanterns, flower lanterns and colored lights interweave into a dreamy scene, and little Beibei babbles in surprise. People were coming and going on the street, music was playing one after another, and Beibei looked around curiously. Dad quietly explained the surrounding lights and sights, his little finger constantly pointing at the bright sea of ​​lights. On this warm night, Beibei felt the charm and warmth of Hualien Night Market with her innocent eyes.

It has a French fry-like shape, but is made of stinky tofu. This time I ordered the cream cheese flavor. I personally feel that the pepper and salt flavor is too strong and does not go well with the cream cheese. I think it would be more suitable to try the simple pepper and salt flavor or the Thai spicy and sour flavor. In addition, each serving comes with kimchi, which is sweet and sour and delicious. I finished it all without realizing it. #Dongdaemun Night Market #Stinky French Fries

There are plenty of hangers, so it's easy to hang things out. Coffee and milk tea are available. Refrigerator and microwave are available. The men do a good job of cleaning, so it's very clean.
