Jagalchi Fisheries Market is a comprehensive seafood market where you can see lively fish and enjoy fresh sashimi.
If you come to Busan, where the seagulls fly, you'll want to eat fresh seafood. Busan is a port city facing the sea, so there are several areas where you can enjoy seafood, and one of the most popular tourist spots in Busan is Jagalchi Market, a seafood market not far from Busan Station and Busan International Passenger Terminal.
The market, always bustling with shoppers and tourists, has two large buildings where you can eat delicious sashimi. In particular, the six-story Shin Dong-A Fisheries General Market is located along the road where the city buses pass.
When you enter the first floor of this market, you will see many small tanks filled with lively fish that look as if they have just been caught from the sea, and just walking between the tanks surrounded by merchants calling out to you and the hustle and bustle of fish, you can feel the lively atmosphere unique to a port town to the fullest. You can also choose fish such as flounder, black rockfish, octopus, sea squirts, crabs, abalone, and turban shells from the tanks that have been a feast for the eyes, and have them butchered and prepared as sashimi on the spot to enjoy, but you can eat dishes such as rice and maeuntang (spicy fish stew) on the third floor of this building, not on the first floor.
If you buy fish on the first floor and eat it on the third floor, it will cost you 1 won for seating in addition to the price of the fish.

On the second floor, there is a dried food market with many dried food stores lined up. There are surprisingly few types of Korean nori seaweed, a standard Korean souvenir, but there are plenty of dried squid, kelp, wakame seaweed, dried fruits, dried stingray, and snacks that would go well with alcohol. There is also a post office at the entrance on the second floor, so you can easily send your purchases to Japan.
On the basement floor there is a food court with a down-to-earth atmosphere.
This market faces Gukje Market across the main street where Busan Subway Line 1 runs, and even just taking a quick look around the market will give you an energizing feeling when sightseeing in Busan.
