Noto Shokusai Ichiba (Noto Food Festival Market)

能登食祭市場

Ishikawa · Chubu

A waterfront market hall on Nanao Bay where visitors browse stalls of freshly landed Noto seafood, buy local specialities, and eat kaisen-don and grilled seafood at the on-site restaurants. The ground floor is a fish-and-produce market; upper floors hold dining and souvenir shops. It doubles as a roadside station (michi-no-eki) and port oasis.

Why we picked it

Overshadowed by Kanazawa's Omicho Market, this Noto Peninsula seafood hall sees far fewer foreign visitors despite landing catch from the same waters.
