The Tanga Market was a fun one to browse. I tend to like food markets more then shopping streets as they are interesting and lively, especially here in Japan. I came here twice and both times it was busy with both buyers and sellers. There is a lot of fresh seafood and produce here, but there were several vendors selling snacks and other finger foods. I loved fried food here in Japan, so I couldn't pass up some of the fried chicken. There were also yakitori vendors that had some good options. Not the cleanest street or part of town, but I guess most markets are kind of like this. Everyone was friendly. As a tourist, I suggest coming here and browsing the market, also get a few small items to taste.

If you would like to experience a traditional Japanese market, Tanga ichiba is a right place to go. It is just like Nishiki market in Kyoto or Kuromon market in Osaka. It should be interesting for foreign tourists. Even for Japanese, it recalls a nostalgia for Showa Time. But you should go before the noon. As I went there afternoon, the most of shops were closed.
