City-specific notes
- Fengjia remains the best overall Taichung market, while Yizhong is the stronger central-city alternative.
- Hanxi and Daqing are rotating open-lot markets and must be tied to the site's Open Tonight feature.
- Zhongxiao is a roadside food market with continuing scooter and car traffic.
- Daqing replaces Tunghai in the top five after current research; Tunghai remains the first alternate.
- Ratings and review totals are snapshots and should be refreshed through approved APIs.
First alternate: Tunghai Night Market 東海夜市／東海別墅夜市. A worthwhile daily university-area market, but its current Google score and review signal are weaker than Daqing's, and its narrow main road has messy vehicle traffic.
