A place to assist tourists in overcoming communication barriers
Jagalchi Market has become a must-visit stop for international tourists in Busan. It is also an attraction included in the city tour package. Referred to as "Ajimae" in the Busan dialect, married women arrive early at dawn to prepare their stalls, showcasing an array of fresh fish and seafood. Visitors can have the unique opportunity to select their preferred seafood for slicing or even cooking themselves, promising an unforgettable experience. Visitors can also try out local specialties, such as live octopus, dried seaweed sheets, or fresh seaweed. Of course, it would also serve as a perfect souvenir to take home.
Additionally, in order to assist international visitors facing communication problem, Jagalchi Market hosts a Tourist Information Center. Tour guides in the center are fluent in English, Japanese, and Chinese who provide comprehensive assistance regarding the market layout, various seafood types, and the market's distinctive buy-and-sell methods.
Ascending to the 7th floor of the market, guests discover a guesthouse offering a chance to savor Busan's nighttime seascape. This location offers an all-encompassing experience that shouldn't be overlooked. Don't miss the opportunity to witness the fresh seafood auction at dawn - a highlight of this vibrant marketplace!
