This market has been in operation since the late 1800s and still continues to serve locals early in the morning. At the back is a wet market selling fresh meat, but the front is packed with tourists filling up on traditional sweets and pickles during the day. It’s a great spot for souvenirs like nutmeg snacks, and on their second floor, you’ll find secondhand books, funky items, and soak in the great atmosphere.
