Dating back to a riverside market that began in the 1910s, Yangdong Market is Gwangju's largest traditional market, famous for fresh skate fish and its signature Yangdong fried chicken. Steeped in history from the 1980 Gwangju Uprising, when merchants supported citizen militias, the market today offers modern facilities alongside affordable local treats like noodle soup and lettuce-wrapped fritters.
1910년대 광주교 아래 백사장 장터에서 시작된 양동시장은 광주광역시 최대 규모의 전통시장으로, 신선한 홍어와 명물 양동통닭을 맛볼 수 있는 곳입니다. 5·18 민주화운동 당시 상인들이 시민군을 도왔던 대동정신이 깃든 이곳은 현대화된 시설과 저렴한 천 원 국시, 상추튀김 등 다양한 먹거리로 여행객의 발길을 사로잡습니다.
