All Reviews of Higo Yokamon Market

Located inside Kumamoto Station, Higo Yokamon Market is definitely a great place to buy souvenirs and grab something to eat during your trip. It brings together a wide variety of authentic Kumamoto specialties, and once you step inside, you won’t want to leave.

My personal top recommendation is the rich and delicious Aso milk, which I’d happily go back for every day. Its creamy, smooth taste is still unforgettable. There’s also the eye-catching and luxurious honeycomb ice cream from Sugi Bee Garden. With one bite, the sweet flavor melts in your mouth and fills you with happiness. Whether you’re looking for refined local souvenirs or tasty specialty snacks, this place has it all. It’s a great place to shop and explore.

So many souvenirs, with a dazzling selection you could never get through it all. But if you go later, the dango are half off.
Otherwise, even one tiny skewer isn't exactly cheap.
Today I also got to try Kumamon-shaped ningyo-yaki.
And it happened to be the last day!
It's less than a minute from the station exit,
and it'll have your wallet bleeding in no time.
