Pohang Jukdo Market — Restaurant in Pohang-si

The market is just awesome……it is sooooooooo huge………the market complex consists of a fruit and vegetable market, home furnishings market, fashion market and sea food market. One can find all types of sea food, alive, frozen, dried……all too fresh. It also has a few pork and other meat shops as well. For vegetarian and vegans also there is a lot to look around, shop and eat…….at regular intervals one find shops selling nick nacks…… Vegetables are fresh and the green vegetables can be bought planted in small pots, which is something I have seen across various big markets in Korea. The place also has ample parking space and they accept cards. The place is also easily accessible by bus. To shop in the market one needs to carry cash, though a few shops accept card also…… The shop owners are all very nice people, as every Korean is…. Overall a very good experience and one of the must visit...

Good thing I don't live here and even while visiting, I wanted to buy everything lol... From fresh veggies, seafood and meat, this place has it all.

If you get hungry, go to one of the food stalls and grab some knife noodles for 5000 won, which is like $3.50usd.

Just amazed at the variety of the seafoods they had, especially the large octopus they were selling. As the market is near the fishing vessels, they bring in fresh catches on a daily basis. You can also buy and go to a restaurant, where they charge you like $3 per person to eat and they service side items, etc and you can order alcohol drinks to enjoy...

Jukdo-market is organized a open-air market and a arcade. This market is the biggest market in the East sea. Especially, fish market is really famous. So you can buy fresh fishes. Also a lot of sashimi restaurants-in koerean Hoi(회)-is in here. If you go there in winter, Guamegi which make of semi-dried mackerel pike is in season. Boiled octopus is truely good choice all year around. Of course, you are able to do the shopping not only fish, but also all kind of meat and vegetables, clothes even...
