Our guide
Teradomari Fish Market Street is the popular name for a seafood market in Teradomari, Nagaoka, Niigata, also called the “Ameyoko of fish”. More than ten fish shops, souvenir shops and restaurants line National Route 402, the Nihonkai Yūhi Line, along the Sea of Japan. The fish, crab and yellowtail on sale are landed mainly at Teradomari and Izumozaki ports, and grilled seafood and crab soup to eat on the spot are specialities.
The street took shape after Kakujō Uoichi opened its first shop here around the 1970s and other sellers gradually joined. Many visitors combine it with Yahiko and Iwamuro Onsen.
We have not checked a public-transport route, so plan the journey on the map and look for local information before you go.
