Kochi City Central Wholesale Market, the second oldest market in Japan, dating back to 1945
The market is located right next to the wharf, which is a rare sight in Japan, meaning that fish unloaded directly from the fishing boats are auctioned there.
The freshness of the goods is incredible!
Fruits and vegetables are also sold in the market.
*Unfortunately, the auctions that were open to the public on every first Saturday of the month are currently on hold.
Resumption of the event is planned, but will be contingent on the national situation surrounding the pandemic.
We would love for you to visit the Kochi City Central Wholesale Market, once it is safe to travel freely again.
