The Echizen Town Tourism Federation will hold the "Echizen Gani Morning Market" on Saturday and Sunday, November 13 ~ 28 (Sun) at Echizen, a roadside station where "Echizen Gani" and seafood from the Sea of Japan caught locally will be sold immediately.

This morning market will be held instead of the annual "Echizen Crab Festival" in conjunction with the lifting of the ban on snow crab fishing on November 6. On the day of the event, in addition to the brand "Echizen Gani", seafood from the Sea of Japan caught in Echizen Town such as "Seiko Crab" and "Echizen Garei" will be sold, as well as takeout gourmets.

The event will be held on November 13 and 14, 20 and 21, 27 and 28 for a total of 6 days (Saturdays and Sundays), and the time is 9 a.m. ~ 2 p.m. The roadside station at the venue is a complex of souvenir shops, open-air baths, and a crab museum. To access the venue, take a local bus from JR Takeo Station and get off in front of Activeland (about 65 minutes). It takes about 50 minutes to get off the Hokuriku Expressway "Sabae IC" or "Tsuruga IC".

The organizer said, "Every year, Echizen costs about 15,000 yen ~, and Seiko crab costs 1,500 yen ~. The number of restaurants serving "Seiko Crab Bowl" has also increased. I want you to come to Echizen Town and enjoy the crabs." I say.
