Dongfeng market was originally a retail market, later became both a wholesale and a retail market for  Guangfu barracks and NCKU students to buy shopping, buying food important market, with the gradual increase of vendors, and even spread to Yule Street and Victory Road area are part of the scope of the city, the food items.  More and more vendor flock here and extended into today’s Yu-Le Street and Shangli Road and formed a huge business circle.
