Today we're at the gigantic Doki Doki Flea Market in Makuhari Messe, Chiba Prefecture. Makuhari is about 45mins to an hour from Tokyo station, depending on the route you take. This annual event is held over 3 days during Golden Week at the start of May. Hadn’t been before so went along without any expectations and had a fun time exploring.
Their website names it as the largest flea market in Japan, although there's also the gigantic and aptly named "Manmos (Mammoth) Flea Market" in Nagoya claiming the same title😄
My niche is Japanese traditional items, vintage/antique ceramics and home decor, however, clothes, shoes, toys etc. are plentiful at this flea should you be on the look out for those😊
Estimated prices are noted in USD($) (exchange rate in 2024) to help convert into your own currency.
Thank you so much for watching and hope you enjoy the content🥰

There may be an educational element to the content at times, however, this channel is simply for light entertainment🎶
Should you require info on antique identification, please refer to an expert or specialist😊
DUE TO A HIGH VOLUME OF INQUIRIES, I AM UNABLE TO RESPOND TO SPECIFIC QUERIES REGARDING MARKETS, THRIFT SHOPS, OTHER INFO FOR YOUR JAPAN ITINERARY. This also applies to messaging on Instagram. Thanking you kindly for your understanding🙏
