Despite its name, the market actually opens early in the morning, but runs late into the night. Some of the most popular snacks to be found here include mutton herbal soup, rice noodle soup and iced tapioca.
This is a must-visit location for those who love to hang out and enjoy the sweetness of doing nothing but munching on delicacies.
Yilan pastry, smoked duck meat and ya shang are some of the other delicacies you may want to try at Luodong Night Market.
Gueishan Island is one of the major attractions of Yilan. The island is in the shape of a sea turtle due to many long years of volcanic activity and, unsurprisingly, many people refer to it as Turtle Island. You will require a permit to visit this remote place and the number of people allowed to go is usually limited.
