Day 2 - Kuromon Ichiba market - Osaka Kobe Kyoto Vacation

Today we head out to the Kuromon Ichiba market. It is one of the most well known central food markets in Osaka, Japan.

It seems that this market has been around for over 170 years preserving the food and culture of Osaka.

Located on the south side of Chuo Ward, Osaka City, Kuromon Ichiba is 580 meters long, and is easily accessed by a 2-minute walk from the subway Nippombashi Station. It is a very lively market with lots of human interaction, and is packed with approximately 150 shops of mainly fish, meat and vegetables.


Walking through Kuromon market
All kinds of fresh food items are available at this market.

Spoilt for choice for fresh seafood

Fresh seafood cooked on the spot for you

Some of the seafood can be rather expensive

These crab claws are expensive

Still we have to try some .. like octopus 

Go early to aviod the crowds

And enjoy the atmosphere

And the memories

Try from one stall to another ...



Here's our 10 day Osaka Kobe Kyoto itinerary.
