Details
The event commemorates the anniversary of Kobo Daishi (Kukai) and takes place within the grounds of To-ji Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Visitors can browse a wide variety of goods including antiques, vintage tools, secondhand clothing, fresh produce, seasonal fruits, ceramics, fabrics, and ingredients. The atmosphere is lively and suitable for both treasure hunting and casual browsing. While there is no basic entrance fee to view the market grounds, admission may be required for specific temple areas such as the Golden Hall or lecture hall depending on the season. The market is affectionately known as "Hongō-san" in some contexts but is primarily referred to as Kobo-ichi or Hōkai Market at this venue.
