For anyone doing business in Yiwu, whether it’s for a week or a few, enjoying delicious food and drinks is a must. We’ve rounded up the best spots for fun and entertainment for you.
Yiwu Night Market (宾王夜市)
The night market is one of the must-visit entertainment options in Yiwu. As night falls, foreign businessmen will flock to the market to shop for a variety of novelty items or indulge in delicious street food, with dishes costing $2–$5.
Binwang Night Market (宾王夜市) is Yiwu’s only government-operated night market. Also known as Santing Road Night Market（三挺路夜市） due to its location, it boasts the largest number of booths, merchants, and passenger flow in the city.
Beyond local Yiwu delicacies, the market also features authentic restaurants, including Halal, Turkish, Afghan (such as the Ariana Restaurant), and Syrian cuisines, making it easy to find a taste of home. The atmosphere comes alive in the evening, with outdoor tables filled with foreign diners, lively conversations, and the aromatic curls of shisha smoke.
