What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors rave about Yujing Mango Market as a top destination for mango lovers, praising the incredible variety, freshness, and significantly lower wholesale prices compared to other cities. Many highlight the delicious mango ice cream and the overall lively, authentic market experience. Some note that purchasing is often done by the basket, which can lead to buying in bulk.
"For mango lovers, this has to be one of the best places in the world. It's mostly wholesalers, but prices are half or a third of Taipei prices. There are also some stalls around the perimeter selling smaller quantities. Every kind of mango in season, including some we hadn't seen anywhere else, like 紀竹. Better quality mangoes than we've found elsewhere in Taiwan, so delicious. Amazing place, we came twice and left with probably 50kg. We saw jackfruit and lychees here as well.
Worth knowing, some sell by jin but only by the basket. You choose a basket and then they go weigh the basket, then they tell you the total price."

"This place is simply superb for fruits, especially mangoes, all at wholesale prices. Just be aware that you would probably be lugging tons of yummy fruits back - their simply irresistible. There are fruit tree seedlings too. Really and truly a 芒果山芒海 delightful 天堂！"
