Higashi Betsuin Morning Market | Nagoya’s Temple Market Vibes #streetmarket #asmr #walkingtour

While walking near Higashi Betsuin in Nagoya, I discovered the Lifestyle Morning Market (Kurashi-no-Asaichi), held on the 8th, 18th, and 28th of every month from 10 AM to 2 PM.

This vibrant market takes place right on the temple grounds — a revered Buddhist temple founded in 1690 by the Ōtani-ha sect, built on the site of Oda Nobunaga’s Furuwatari Castle.

Local vendors gather here with handmade crafts, organic veggies, artisan breads, sweets, fashion items, and more — all rooted in mindful, everyday living. Each date has its unique vibe:

The 8th focuses on organic and natural lifestyle goods.
The 18th features creative, experimental items from young artisans.
On the 28th, the market is at its liveliest, with more stalls and friendly crowds.

This is community, culture, and crafts — all in one walk through a historic place.
