A
Tenjin-san Market
This market is held once a month at Kitano Tenman-gū and marks the birthday (and coincidentally the death) of the Heian-era statesman Sugawara Michizane (845–903). Items on offer are similar to those at Kōbō-san. It’s pleasant to explore the shrine before or after you do your shopping.

B
Kōbō-san Market
This market is held at Tō-ji on the 21st of each month to commemorate the death of Kōbō Taishi, who in 823 was appointed abbot of the temple. If you’re after used kimono, pottery, bric-a-brac, plants, tools and general Japanalia, this is the place.
