I like to visit local market when I travel to a foreign country. Nishiki market in Kyoto is one of market that you should not missed if you visit to Kyoto..
The famous brand of matcha, i forgot to buy one..
wide spread of cooked dishes
many varieties of picked vegetables
first time seeing pickled eggplants
If not my husband stop me, i would have carry a bag of Japanese rice back home, hehehe..
All sort of beans..
I also forgot to buy a bottle of yuzu wine..
Bonita flakes..
yummy sushi stall..
very colourful dried noodles
I bought this sushi, the packing is so cute
Very fresh fish, yummy!
Ok, you can also buy pickled sakura here, i saw only one stall selling, don't need to look for other stall..
We saw a small temple after walk out from the market

ReplyDeleteSonia, my friend's parents from HK did buy a pack of rice back to Hk& it was like 9kg!This pickled Sakura must be very popular in Kyoto as when I checked with my gf from Nagoya,she never heard of itbuenos she is helping me to find in Nagoya later & is she can't find them,she will buy online & send to her mother's house as she has moved to Sydney! thanks for sharing all these beautiful pictures with us
