Night market culture with a long history:

Before the Eastern Han Dynasty, there was no concept of traveling at night because of the confinement of ancient people's thoughts. People work at sunrise and rest at sunset, even the emperor.

at the beginning of the eastern Han dynasty, the western regions traded with the Han people, and then "supper stalls" appeared near the Hexi corridor, but there were only a few places. The rise of these "supper stalls" was also due to merchants passing by, and some intelligent people saw the business opportunities here, so they began to sell food and drink here. In this way, the first night market appeared.

However, this special night market, which was built for the needs of trade and life, disappeared after a short time. Due to the turmoil at the border, the night market disappeared before it developed.

in the early Tang dynasty, the curfew was very strict, and people could do nothing even if they were hungry at night. Later, with the continuous strengthening of the national power of the Tang Dynasty, the capital became bigger and bigger, and the enforcement of curfew became smaller and smaller, and the evening in the Tang Dynasty became lively.

when the rulers see that they can't control it, they simply let the night market develop, which is also more conducive to the economic flow. The format is just eating and having fun, and other industries have not yet developed.

Later, in the Song Dynasty, a wealthy dynasty, the economy developed at the speed of light directly led to the expansion of the night market. At this time, the night market was not limited to eating, and all industries joined the night market. At this time, the rulers got bored and began to visit the night market.

It can be said that China people must have a "gene" for eating supper at night. This has been handed down from generation to generation, and four meals is our fine tradition.
