💡 Tips for Visitors

Most stalls are cash-only, so bring plenty of yen, though some larger shops now accept credit cards and electronic payment. Visit in the morning (around 9-10 AM) for the freshest selection and to avoid peak crowds, though the market stays open until evening. Many vendors offer samples and simple English menus, and don't hesitate to use gestures or translation apps to communicate with friendly shopkeepers.
