Otaru Sankaku Market - A must-visit seafood market for seafood lovers, with fresh crabs and generous rice bowls

Otaru Sanjiao Market is located in Otaru City, Hokkaido. It is the most famous seafood market in the area. It is only about a 1-minute walk from JR Otaru Station. It is open all year round and attracts many local residents and tourists to taste fresh seafood. It is a must-visit place for traveling to Otaru.

There are more than a dozen shops in the market, mainly selling fresh seafood such as crabs and sea urchins, as well as fruits and other local specialties. The market gets its name from its triangular layout. The approximately 200-meter-long street is lined with a variety of stalls and small restaurants on both sides, creating a unique market atmosphere.

Here, tourists can enjoy a variety of seafood dishes, especially the seafood donburi in the market, which are rich in ingredients, delicious and reasonably priced. This time we chose Takibo Shokudo, which has a simple and warm decoration, revealing a strong local flavor. It is said that the restaurant's ingredients are purchased on the same day to ensure the freshness of every dish.

The signature seafood bowl we ordered this time was filled with more than ten kinds of seafood and paired with fragrant rice. It was delicious and left you with an unforgettable aftertaste. The crab meat and sea urchin bowl is also a specialty of the store. The sea urchin is fresh and the crab meat is rich, which is good value for money.

Inside Sankaku Market, Takinanami Shokudo is a great place to taste delicious food, and the entire market is an ideal choice for experiencing Otaru's seafood culture.
