Karato Market in Shimonoseki City is a lively fish market known as "Kanmon's Kitchen," while also boasting a leading handling volume of pufferfish in Japan. On weekends and holidays, an event called "Iki-iki Bakangai" is held, where many sushi battles and seafood stalls line up. Freshly caught pufferfish, sea bream, yellowtail, and more are provided as sushi or bowls at surprisingly reasonable prices, and the energetic atmosphere is the best stage to experience a "Japanese Fish Market." The experience of eating what you bought on the seaside wooden deck while gazing at the view of the Kanmon Strait is the greatest highlight of Shimonoseki sightseeing and attracts foodies from all over the world.
