Introduction

Gwangcheon Cave Salted Shrimp Market is a traditional market located in Gwangcheon, between Hongseong and Boryeong. Gwangcheon’s proximity to the Yellow Sea makes it a famous place for jeotgal (salted seafood), made using seafood and shrimp caught from the Yellow Sea, and laver seaweed. Gwangcheon’s saeujeot (salted shrimp) is stored and aged in a cave tunnel, so it has great quality. The market also offers agricultural goods, seafood, clothing, and sundry items.
