Kuromon Market, arcade commerçante à Osaka, au Japon

Description

Kuromon Market is a covered shopping arcade in Nipponbashi, Osaka, that spans several blocks and contains hundreds of shops and stalls. The passages are narrow and busy, filled with fish merchants, fruit vendors, restaurants and cafes where visitors can sample and purchase food.

History

The market was founded in the 17th century and grew out of a local fish trading post. Over time it expanded into a larger commercial hub offering a wide variety of goods and fresh food.

Practical

The market is easy to visit since it sits near a major train and streetcar station and is very walkable. It is best visited in the morning or midday when the stalls are full and the atmosphere is most lively.

Did you know?

The market is known for visitors eating fresh seafood and other delicacies directly at the stalls, creating a casual food experience. This eating culture transforms the space into a social gathering spot where tourists and locals naturally mix.
