What to know
Kushiro Washo Market (釧路和商市場, Kushiro Washō Ichiba) sits just a short stroll from Kushiro Station and is counted among Hokkaido's three great markets, alongside Sapporo's Nijo Market and Hakodate's Morning Market.
This indoor market features stalls selling fresh and processed seafood, meat, vegetables, and souvenirs. The main draw for many visitors is "Kattedon," a customizable seafood bowl: you buy a bowl of rice and then top it with small portions of your chosen seafood. Seasonal treats like crab can also be enjoyed cooked on-site.
Kushiro Washo Market is about a five-minute walk from Kushiro Station.
