Gupo Market (구포장 / 구포시장 (3, 8일))

Gupo Market is a big-scale traditional market located within the busy streets of Gupo in Busan. Gupo has been a trading hub since the 17th century during the Joseon period due to its location at the entrance of Busan that meets Nakdonggang River. A variety of vegetables and fruits are lined up past Ssamji Park at the main entrance of Gupo Market. The market alley displays a wide range of food ingredients along with fresh and dried seafood to choose from. Gupo Market is also packed with delicious street foods and restaurants, including popular local restaurants like Gupo Guksu Jip and Jangteo Gukbap Jip. The annual “Friendly Gupo Market Festival” takes place at the market place ever October, welcoming both domestic and international visitors.
