Yomitan Village, JA Okinawa Yomitan Farmers Market
[Yomitan Yachinmu Market] held annually in front of Yunta Market
2025 will be the 32nd time, and it will be held for two days on February 22nd and 23rd.
The number of visitors over the two days of the event is about 20,000 people,
making it the largest pottery market in the prefecture.
There were many people all day who came to buy bargains such as Yachimun and Ryukyu glass at a good price.
All the works are handmade, and the firing changes depending on the weather of the day, the quality of the soil, the type of glaze, etc., so there are no two identical pieces.
Just looking at the "Yachimun" that shows a different expression one by one is fun.
This year, 26 workshops were open.
Yachimun markets like this are held in other places in Okinawa Prefecture as well.
The next most famous large Yachimun market is the Okinawa All Island Yachimun Market.
This year it will be held on March 22nd and 23rd, 2025.
The venue is "The Moon Beach Museum Resort Hotel".
This is also a very popular Yachimun market.
A chance to find one-of-a-kind Yachimun at a great price!
We also recommend traveling to Okinawa to coincide with the Yachimun market.
