The hottest tourist spot in Xishuangbanna, the southern tip of Yunnan Province, China, is the Starlight Night Market, a huge night market with a scale that is almost like a theme park.
👀Highlights✨
🎡Theme park-class size and bustle
When you think of a night market, you tend to imagine a local atmosphere with food stalls lined up, but Starlight Night Market is an entertainment space that exceeds your imagination!
The park is simply large, and is fully equipped with attractions such as a Ferris wheel and merry-go-round.
It is always bustling with local young people and travelers, making it a night tourist destination that can be enjoyed with an amusement park feel.
🛍️From souvenirs to street food
The night market is lined with local ethnic minority goods, handmade miscellaneous goods, trendy accessories, and more.
Of course, there are also plenty of food stalls, and there are plenty of foods that can only be tasted here, such as Xishuangbanna's specialty Thai-style skewers, coconut sweets, and insect gourmet food.
I tried skewers of insects, grilled tofu, and pomegranate juice, all of which were delicious and not available in Japan!
🌃The night view is simply photogenic!
The squares and buildings are decorated with colorful illuminations, and no matter where you look, it's a picturesque scene.
The view of the buildings across the street from the bridge in the city at night is particularly impressive! You're sure to take a romantic photo that will be a memorable memory of your trip.
