    Wakayama Tanabe-shi Inaricho 270-1
    "This farmer's makert is located five minutes from the Nanki Tanabe Interchange on the Hanwa Expressway via National Route 42. Producers sell not only their best fresh vegetables but also various citrus fruits throughout the year in this farmers' and fishers' market whose motto is ""Fresh, Reliable, Cheap."" Especially popular is the Fish Products Section, where customers can obtain fresh fish sent directly from the fishers who caught them, as well as homemade cakes sweets, and other processed foods made by local producers. On the second floor is the casual Yottette Cafe, along with a section that sells dried plums, plum wine, and other products derived from plums. On the same property is the farm-to-table buffet restaurant Hachijuhachiya."

    観光客向けのお土産屋さんを想像していったら、観光客だけでなく地元の人と思われる人たちも買い物に来ていました。新鮮な野菜や果物、地元の味が一か所で手に入るからでしょうか。果物や野菜のコーナーがかなり広く、たくさんの種類を見ながら選べるのが良かったです。ほとんどの人が１階だけを利用しているようですが、２階にもお土産屋さんとフルーツパーラ―、３階にも簡単な休憩コーナーがあり、施設が充実していました。
