This was the third time I've had the opportunity to visit the New Year's market in Aizu Wakamatsu. It only comes around once a year, so it's a blink-and-you-miss it chance to see the downtown area transformed into a wonderful shopping area, with plenty of stalls and visitors crowding the streets. Take a look for yourself!
