Tanga Market
Since the Taisho period (1912-1926), Tanga Market has been known as the Kitchen of Kitakyushu, with a history of over 100 years.
The 120 shops that line the narrow market exude a Showa charm, offering local seafood, vegetables, and side dishes.
Impromptu conversations with the sellers in the market and the at-home atmosphere make it a popular place with tourists!
