Compared with modern coastal cities in China, Shigatse is still underdeveloped. As for nightlife, it is certainly not comparable to other big cities. Unlike the stores in other cities, most of the shops in Shigatse City are closed at 18:00. Thus, there are few places for you to pass your time at night. However, the night market in Jiefang Road (Middle) would be a good choice. It is quite a lively place. Various foods in different styles are served, like hotpot, fried dishes and brochettes. Your appetite can be well satisfied here.
