Ame Yocco Market, Market street beneath railway tracks in Ueno, Japan.
Over 400 shops line this 400-meter shopping corridor between Ueno Station and Okachimachi Station, offering fresh seafood, clothing, accessories, and traditional foods.
The market emerged from the ruins of World War II as a black market for American products before transforming into a regulated shopping district in 1946.
Vendors practice tatakiuri, striking boxes with sticks while adding items to bags until reaching a fixed price, creating an engaging shopping experience.
The market operates daily from 10:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with direct access from JR Ueno Station through the Shinobazu Exit or JR Okachimachi Station.
Price negotiations remain standard practice in the market, where seasonal fruits, fresh seafood, and traditional sweets sell at lower prices than other Tokyo locations.
