There's something strangely enjoyable about touring a food market where over half of the
goods on display are utterly baffling (is it a food, a spice or some sort of Christmas tree
decoration?). Even after years in Japan, we're not sure about some of the things on sale
here, but we love wandering Kyoto's Nishiki Market. The place positively oozes 'old
Japan' atmosphere and you can imagine what it was like here before someone decided to
attach the word 'super' to the word 'market'.
