Kaoshiung, Taiwan - Rueifang Night Market

Taiwan has manymanymany night markets (in Taipei itself their Shilin and Shida) and I usually don't take pictures because: 1. it's too crowded 2. I'm busy eating and shopping (mostly eating). Well, this is dedicated to Rueifang (at Kaoshiung Arena Station) because: 1. it's not commonly recommended in guidebooks or brochures 2. hidden gem recommended by hostel owner 3. I love it, especially the retro games! (the reason why I'd go back) 4. there's nothing much else to do at night around Kaoshiung 5. it's better than the other (forgettable) night market recommended.

Here's an introduction of the games they have:

1. Mahjong Tile Game (Honestly haven't figured how to play this yet)
