What To Expect

Hakodate Morning Market

Hakodate Morning Market is the city’s most famous food market and a symbol of its port-town heritage. Just steps from Hakodate Station, the market is filled with stalls offering fresh squid, crab, scallops, and seasonal produce from Hokkaido’s rich land and seas.
