Gojome Morning Market
Located in Gojome Town, the Gojome Morning Market is the oldest morning market in Akita Prefecture, boasting a history of 530 years. Its origins date back to 1495, when it is said that Ando Suemune, the lord of Babame, enshrined a market deity and opened the market. Every month on days ending in 2, 5, 7, and 0, stalls line 'Asaichi-dori' (Morning Market Street), bustling from early morning until near noon with people seeking fresh vegetables, wild plants, and mushrooms. Seasonal events such as the Wild Plant Festival and Mushroom Festival are also highlights. With the blessings of nature throughout the four seasons and warm interactions with the vendors, this market, continuing for over 500 years, is a living landscape of Akita where you can directly experience the local lifestyle and food culture.
