Why You Should Visit

A market held on the third Sunday of each month in Misono Shopping Street, a Showa-retro arcade right by JR Wakayama Station. The October 18 edition brings about 50 booths of food, sweets, handmade goods, hands-on booths and workshops. On the same day, the local association Miki holds its Miki Autumn Festival 2026, with a stage of live music and dance, a fashion walk by care workers and older residents, and an inclusive fashion show by children.
