The night-time culture of Taiwan is dominated by the institution of the night market where people go to eat night snacks and to shop.
Bars and Nightclubs in Taiwan.
Big cities in Taiwan offer a fairly wide range of bars, lounges, and nightclubs. Taipei’s Luxy club is the most famous in the country, and usually the only one that is capable of bringing in internationally-famous DJs.
Clubbing in Taipei is an incredible bang for your buck, as drinks and entrance fees are dramatically cheaper than other major cities in both the West and in Asia such as Beijing, Shanghai, Tokyo, or Seoul, but remain of comparably posh quality.
Karaoke
If you’re not familiar with Asian karaoke, it is much different than the Western version. Karaoke houses give you a private room with an unexpectedly awesome stereo system, where you can order drinks, sing, and add time to your heart’s delight.
Many of the bigger chains can get quite a bit more expensive than you might think, so if you can find a location that will let you bring in outside alcohol you will spare yourself a lot of money. The usual rate is around 300NT$ for the first three hours.
7-11 / Park Nightlife in Taiwan
Because of the safety of evenings in Taiwan, and the 24-hour eating culture, it is a great place for night owls. If nothing else, don’t forget the personal favorite Taiwanese nightlife experience of strapped-for-cash Mandarin Chinese students buying some Taiwan Beer at 7-11 and chatting in a park until sunrise.
The Brass Monkey
The Brass Monkey is well-liked among the city’s expat crowd but draws a mixed and lively bunch. The place is popular for its numerous flat-screen televisions showing major sporting events from around the world, as well as foosball tables, dartboards and fairly cheap drinks.
The quiz nights are fun, the DJs keep up a lively vibe and the owners are friendly and popular, keeping the place pretty busy most nights.
