Pingtung City 屏東市 is the capital of the eponymous county in the far south of Taiwan. Much like Changhua City 彰化市 it is an old and historic town showing fewer signs of modernization compared to the metropolis just next door—Kaohsiung 高雄 in this case. The Minzu Road Night Market 民族路夜市 is a happening place with plenty of famous stalls but apart from that Pingtung City seems like a fairly quiet place after dark. Even so, there's a good number of historic sights and old temples worth a look for those interested in vintage Taiwan, and it's a fantastic place to stay if you're keen to experience southern Taiwanese hospitality.
