Great Stuff to See and Do!
Kushiro’s biggest, most historic market
Opened in 1954, this market is one of Hokkaido’s top three markets along with Hakodate’s Morning Market and Sapporo’s Nijo Market.
This is the kitchen of the people of Kushiro, where about 60 shops offer fresh crab, salted dried fish, fruits and vegetables, meat, delicacies, sweets, and more. The name Kushiro Washo Market comes from the Japanese word “wasshoi,” an enthusiastic cheer, and also incorporates the concept of friendly and cooperative selling.

Make your own unique rice bowl at Washo Market
While Washo Market’s restaurants offering sushi, set meals, noodles and more are of course appealing, the famous Kattedon is most recommended. For this dish, you can add your favorite ingredients and side dishes to your heart’s content, including white rice and vinegar rice, your choice of sashimi and roe, and Kushiro’s special zangi fried chicken.
