From CIDBIA:
Originated in Asia, night markets are open air street markets that are filled with a mixture of vendors selling delicious food items, beverages, clothing and consumer goods. When looking for “cheap eats”, night markets are the first places that come to mind. Small bites of food items, also known as “xiaochi” in Chinese, are served at good prices as carry-out or at small tables with stools for seating. In some of the countries, for example, Taiwan, night markets have become an essential part of people’s night life where they can enjoy a variety of experiences in shopping, eating, games and entertainment all in one place. These markets are crowded with folks at all ages, operated daily beginning around 6pm and ending around 1 or 2am most nights.
Nowadays the lively atmosphere and the unique culture of night markets have also been brought to various areas in North America such as San Francisco, Richmond/Vancouver, BC and now Seattle.
