How to go to East Market?

Due to the rush hour, I recommend that you better visit there on your foot or by cycling. It is much easier to find a park lot. And it won’t take long to walk around the chiayi city.(what I mean is if you stay in the main area, it is not far from the hotel.) However, if you have mobile you still can find a car park nearby.
