The sidewalks are packed with all kinds of goods on display. I really enjoy this kind of shopping vibe—feels just like what I'm used to.

Osaka Tsuruhashi Market
The market still retains the retro atmosphere of the time just after Japan's war (World War II).
The market consists of not one but six markets and a shopping district that still retains the retro atmosphere of the time immediately after Japan's war (World War II). The market boasts a total of about 800 stores, including barbecue restaurants, Korean food stores, and specialty stores selling dried foods, daily necessities, and fresh fish. It is also famous as a market where chefs have come to stock up for centuries. The appeal of this market is that you can buy professional quality ingredients at reasonable prices.
In addition to enjoying shopping, you may also be able to feel the "human warmth" of Japan through communication with the shopkeepers.
There are also many stores where you can taste fresh seafood, so we recommend you enjoy walking around and eating. It is also easy to access from the Kintetsu Tsuruhashi Station.

I came shopping here at the end of the year after four months away.
It was so lively, I couldn't believe there were this many shops!
Glad I made the trip. -
The market is really clean and there's barely any fishy smell.
