Taipei Night Market - 通化夜市/臨江夜市 (Tong Hua Ye Shi/Lin Jiang Ye Shi)
The Tong Hua Night Market (通化夜市) is one of the less well-known night markets in Singapore so you won't be seeing as many tourists.

Also, if you happen to stay in the Grand Hyatt Taipei like I did, Tong Hua Night Market is probably one of the closest one located to the hotel - approximately 15 to 20 minutes stroll.
