There are seven sections in Hirome Market, such as “Castle Square” and “Ryoma Street”, which hold many unique shops such as fish vendors, butchers, sundries shops, clothing stores, and restaurants. Everyone buys food separately and then sits and eats together at the tables and chairs that are placed throughout the market. After you are done eating, the staff will collect your dishes. You can eat, drink, and shop to your heart’s content. At Hirome, locals and tourists alike can be found sharing tables and friendly conversation while enjoying the festivities from morning to late evening.
