Why You Should Visit
An outdoor market that began at Expo '70 Commemorative Park in 2006, built around eco-friendly living. Handmade crafts, plants, antiques and food stalls fill the East Plaza, with workshops and a stage. Bring your own tableware and bottle; reusable dishes cost ¥150 each if you forget. It runs over two Friday-to-weekend blocks, seven days in total, and suits families and anyone planning to spread out a picnic sheet for the day. Held in rain; may be cancelled in severe weather.
