Sejong Traditional Market

세종전통시장(4, 9일) · Sejong · Traditional markets

First formed in 1931, Sejong Traditional Market is a regular traditional market that transforms into a larger fifth-day market on the 4th, 9th, 14th, 19th, 24th, and 29th of each month. Visitors can find fresh vegetables, fruits, seafood, and everyday goods at affordable prices. Popular snacks include handmade mandu with a 50-year tradition, as well as jjajangmyeon (black bean sauce noodles) and syrup-filled pancakes with nuts, which often draw long lines.
