Daimon Yokocho — Hikari no Yatai (函館ひかりの屋台 大門横丁) 函館ひかりの屋台 大門横丁

26 stalls 5 minutes from the station: the largest yatai village north of Tōhoku.

The Daimon area (literally ‘great gate’, from the gate that marked its entrance) was Hakodate's red-light district after 1907, then declined with the fall in deep-sea fishing and competition from large shops on the outskirts. The ‘Hikari no Yatai’ yatai village opened on that site in October 2005, and celebrated its twentieth anniversary in October 2025.
