Yanji Water Market

Yanji Water Market moved on 19 July 2026 from its former site beside the Yanji River to No. 2599 Shenhua Street, about one kilometre away. The new market has a food floor, a regional-products floor and outdoor fresh-produce stalls. It remains a place for cooked breakfast food and daily shopping, but the riverbank address belongs to the market’s earlier chapter.

Yanji Markets: Two Places and a Family Table
