Jagalchi Market, Busan

If you like very fresh seafood and local style dining, check out the market. If you want a more formal dining experience, there are many restaurants nearby serving food fresh from the market. Remember- plates here come with lots of sides- order conservatively at first!

It's consider cozy place for hanging out lunch or dinner. A bit pricy for us & the taste of our fish head soup just so so. Great views at waterfront side love it.

We had a wonderful experience here. You may purchase seafood on the first floor and have a vendor cook it on the second floor (this is cheaper than ordering food on the 2nd floor directly). The seafood was fresh and I was able to try out many raw items (some of the items were still moving while being served on my plate. So it cannot be fresher than this). Communicating with the first floor vendor could be difficult in English. We ended up speaking Mandarin.

Absolutely loved the sights and sounds of the lower floor of this market, but the upper floor and outside was full of that usual sales pressure that happens in lots of S.E. Asia with people trying to get you into their establishments... but it's certainly worth the visit! The whole area is worth a good explore on foot, and I strongly suggest anyone to wander around here for a couple of hours one morning, and don't be afraid to stray from the beaten path!

Love the outdoor market where you can see gigantic octopuses and squids, ahjumas lining fishes up orderly, with plenty of outdoor small stalls to fill your tummy with fresh food. We bought dried seafood from a stall along with dried pumpkin chips, and also dined in one of the many restaurants selling fried fishes. Prices are reasonable, you can just order a small serving of fried fishes and take your lunch. We were there till about 1plus pm and still super bustling. Beware of slippery floors and wear waterproof shoes!
