Welcome to Nishiki Market (錦市場, Nishiki Ichiba)—a vibrant, narrow, 400-meter-long covered shopping street that has been the lifeblood of Kyoto’s food culture for over four centuries. Known affectionately as "Kyoto's Kitchen," this marketplace is where high-end chefs and local residents shop for traditional ingredients, and where travelers can experience the authentic flavors of Kyoto cuisine (Kyō-ryōri) in a bustling, fun atmosphere.

The market is lined with over 100 highly specialized stalls, many run by the same families for generations. Here, you'll find everything from fresh seafood and exotic pickled vegetables to fine Japanese sweets and unique kitchenware. Get your skewers ready!

In this video, we dive into Kyoto's culinary secrets and must-try specialties:
• Kyoto's Famous Foods: local delicacies like Yuba (tofu skin), Tsukemono (Kyoto-style pickled vegetables), and Namafu (wheat gluten cakes).
• Best Street Food: Find the stalls serving up Tako Tamago (octopus head stuffed with a quail egg), piping hot Dashimaki Tamago (sweet omelets), and fresh seafood skewers.
• Artisan Shops: Discover world-renowned shops like Aritsugu, which has been hand-crafting exquisite Japanese knives and culinary tools since 1560.
• Souvenir Hunting: Find unique Kyoto-themed gifts, from specialized teas and spices to ceramics and traditional Japanese sweets (wagashi).

PLANNING YOUR VISIT (Important Market Rules)
Nishiki Market is a living, working institution. Please be respectful of the local environment and vendors!
• Opening Hours: Most stalls open between 9:00 AM and 10:00 AM and close relatively early, around 5:00 PM to 6:00 PM.
• Walk-and-Eat Etiquette: PLEASE AVOID EATING WHILE WALKING. It is considered impolite. Eat your purchased food right at the stall where you bought it, or utilize designated eating areas.
• Crowd Tip: Visit early (right at 10:00 AM) or later (after 3:30 PM) on a weekday to avoid the peak lunchtime congestion.
• Access: A short walk from Shijō Station (Subway) or Karasuma Station (Hankyu Line).
