This wonderful atmospheric flea market takes place only twice a year, on 15th and 16th December and on 15th and 16th January. No matter which weekday it falls on, the market will be there and it's always worth a visit. It's a lot of fun browsing through the various offers of second hand kimono and yukata, great pottery, old books and much more.
