Japan’s biggest antique flea markets :)!
Seven hundred dealers bring the streets of Setagaya to life at one of Japan’s biggest antique flea markets:) It runs between 15 and 16 of December every year. A rumble through the jumble at this boro ichi market could reward the discerning shopper with an antique kimono, hidden among a colourful selection of arts, crafts and bric-a-brac. The excitement of thousands of feverish bargain-hunters is hard to beat, and the food stalls are legendary too. Many moons ago a rakuichi market for unlicensed merchants was established to add prosperity to this castle town:) Four centuries on and the market is older than the antiques it sells!
