A man who asks me to take a picture too

Children selling things in the market

"Bula" "Sit there" "Where are you from?"
"JAPAN," "Do you drink tea," "Thank you" and so on.

When you point the camera
"Take a picture of me too" "Where is your hotel?"
Chatter box.
The market is like a social gathering place.

When I come to Lautoka, I don't see any Japanese people.
Many people looking around.
The market is so interesting that it takes an hour to look around.

Wherever you go, you'll be worried about the kitchen on the Island.

Food gets to the local economy, history and culture.

Nadi's marketis in the center of town,
vegetables, fruits, yangona roots (used for hippo rituals)
It is piled up on the table.

As I agreed, the prices are all the same,
we have devised a way of arranging them.

One pineapple is 70 yen, and one okra is 70 yen.
The price is one-fifth that of Japan. It's really cheap.

I bought okra and checked the taste, but it wasn't bad.

　Every store is friendly

Say hello to "Bula", "Bula"...

Cheaper than here is 45minutes drive north of Nadi

The market in the second town of Lautoka is large,
but anyway, it's cheap.

One banana is 10 yen, a heap of ginger is 35 yen, and 100g of spices is 70 yen.

I bought this one and paid350yen.

　At the storefront, the staff sat down and were caught up talking
