About this place

South Korea's largest seafood and fish market sits alongside Nampo port, brimming with live tanks and bustling activity. Head upstairs to find working restaurants where you can eat your catch, or visit the free observation deck for views over the harbour and market below. Jagalchi is as much working market as tourist attraction—expect noise, energy and the pungent smell of the sea.

First Floor – Fresh Fish and Seafood Stalls

Jagalchi Market's ground floor comprises dozens of fish and seafood stalls, neatly organised with numbered pitches and business names clearly displayed. Despite the constant moisture typical of this type of market, what stands out is the exceptional cleanliness maintained throughout. It's worth a visit to experience one of Busan's most vibrant food trading spaces, where fresh catches from local waters are on display.

The second floor of Jagalchi Market houses restaurants where you can have the fish and seafood you've purchased from the stalls below prepared and cooked to order. Alternatively, you can eat directly at the restaurants without making any purchases downstairs—there's no obligation to buy beforehand. It's a straightforward setup: select your catch or order from the menu, and the chefs will have it ready in no time.

The rear terrace of Jagalchi Market is an outdoor space at the back of the building, decorated with sculptures and artworks.

It's a pleasant spot to visit and take in the maritime atmosphere of this working port without the hustle of the market floor.
