10 Flea & Street Markets in Kinki That You Shouldn't Miss

September 17, 2021 Franklyn Hardiman

The Kansai region (関西地方, Kansai-chihō) or the Kinki region (近畿地方, Kinki-chihō) lies in the southern-central region of Japan's main island Honshū. The region includes the prefectures of Mie, Nara, Wakayama, Kyoto, Osaka, Hyōgo and Shiga, sometimes Fukui, Tokushima and Tottori. While the use of the terms "Kansai" and "Kinki" have changed over history, in most modern contexts the use of the two terms is interchangeable. The urban region of Osaka, Kobe, and Kyoto (Keihanshin region) is the second-most populated in Japan after the Greater Tokyo Area.

A very nice place if you want to experience what it feels like to be at local Japanese market that is filled of all different kinds of street food, handcraft items, snacks etc. the market is quite huge that you won’t get it full explored with at least two to three hours, especially if you wanted to try street food at different stands, I would recommend to spare at least half day to have a general discover at this fun place! Try to avoid packed foreigners and big lineup, get there as early as possible!

Kuroshio Market

50 minutes from Kansai International Airport (Osaka) by car. The largest number of tuna cutting shows in Japan. The fattiest part of tuna (Otoro) sushi is must-eat in this market. It's a kind of tourist seafood market. At the seaside BBQ area, you can grill & eat all the seafood purchased in Kuroshio Market. Some of the seafood can be prepared as Sashimi or steamed/boiled, free of charge.

Reviewed By jesdaap - Bangkok, Thailand

Travelers who are interested in the lifestyle and culture of tourist attractions do not miss this market where a local fruit village(market) is adjacent. The must is tasting local fresh seafood & fruits and watching the first time of tuna slice at 11.00 hrs.
