When I visited Ono Castle in Fukui, I parked my car in 'Ono Castle Town East Square' and walked down a street called 'Shichiken Street'. On this street, a famous morning market has been held for more than four hundred years. It's open from 7 am to 11 am EVERYDAY from Vernal Equinox Day (March 20 or 21) to the end of a year (December 31). Since I didn't know about it, I arrived there in the late afternoon and missed the activity. However, this street is filled with the atmosphere of old Japan, and just walking along it was such a pleasure. I almost felt like I was in Kyoto, not in Fukui. Kyoto minus crowds, that's Shichiken Street!

Very Japanese-looking shop sign says, 'Rice, gas, heating oil, house appliance, equipment installation work and more'...this shop seems to be a jack-of-all-trades!

You can put your face in one of the round holes and take photos to show your friends that you visited the Shichiken Street!

Deserted Shichiken Street in the late afternoon. The morning market is open from 7 am to 11 am.

Long line of people...I wonder what they are lining up for? Perhaps for a delicious ice cream?
