Osaka Market is a lively covered market that stretches for 580 meters in Osaka’s Chuo Ward. Nicknamed “Osaka’s Kitchen” because both local homeowners and restaurant chefs get their supplies here, the market is famous for its fresh seafood and has recently become a popular tourist location. As a result, it can get quite crowded. In 2015, the market was visited by an average of 23,000 people a day, but that figure is most probably higher now. One reason for the market’s popularity is that many stalls will prepare, cook, and serve their food right on the spot. This makes it an excellent venue for strolling, sampling, and snacking on a delicious variety of fresh market foods.
