Days 1 & 2
Days 3 & 4
Days 5, 6 & 7
So yesterday we finally went to the fish market: Jagalchi. It was an amazing and unique experience. Like nothing we've ever seen before. Even outside the market, just looking at the builidng and the vendors outside we were already impressed, but once you're in, its another world. Everywhere you look there are either tanks with all sorts of sea animals, or someone cutting, or buying fish. Water is running everywhere, and it's almost impossible not to get your shoes wet. You get to see all sorts of animals, from super small fish, to enormous crabs, turtles, shell creatures, really anything. All in tanks with water flowing constantly, and a sea of buyers trying to choose the best products. We were just amazed by how different it is to anything we've seen so far.
Then we went to the second floor where you get to eat, and also see the dried sea prodcuts which is nice but not half as amazing as the first floor with all its chaos and charm. We are not that into seafood, but of course we decided to try something there nonetheless, so we went for a small dish in case we didn't like it, which ended up being the case (after that we were desperately craving some ground animals ^_^) We had raw fish with rice, and some nice clams that didnt last long (those we really liked).
Finally we went to the last level where there is an observation deck where you get to see the port, and all the activity outside the market, how they unload the fish, pack it, etc. It's also really nice just to sit there and look at the sea. If you come to Busan, you shouldn't miss this experience.

Fucking big ass fish markets are like the greatest thing ever.

I read your first blog but totally missed the others, I just realised. Man, I'm so hungry and jealous right now! Great pics.

Fantastic pics of the fish market. Thank you very much for sharing.
|
Been there, done that  .
Sadly i was with a friend that doesn't eat fish so we had to grab food somewhere else
|
Enjoyed all the installments DarkForcE. I hope more progamers take advantage of their travels beyond the competition. All game and no play makes the pro a dumb boy.

Which picture are you talking about? the one with the big pieces?
When i first saw it, i thought it was maybe tuna, but i could be way off with that^^

I absolutely loveeeee travel blogs, especially when they're full of pictures of food! Everything makes me so hungry. As many people have said before, I'm glad you took the opportunity to stay a bit longer to do some sight seeings, and thanks a bunch for sharing them with us.
Btw, I also think the big ones in the photos are blue fin tunas.

Yeah, it looks like shark/whale to me, since tuna meat is usually very red in color.

wouldnt whale be bigger? i mean you can kinda guess how large the fish was from the radius of the meat?!
but then again, im pretty newbish when it comes to fish^^

oh god those shellfish look so good

The size of that could be tuna, because there are some giant tuna out there, especially the really high class stuff.

But the skin doesn't look like tuna, so it makes me think shark. Yeah whale is probably too big for that cut.
Super jelly about your trip there.
