About this audio guide
This guide to Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market traces its start as open-air tangerine and dried-fish stalls, through a slump in the 1990s when supermarkets pulled shoppers away. It follows the city's fix: a continuous arcade roof, built between 2000 and 2003, with automatic retractable sections that open to the sky or seal against rain. Look up at that steel-and-fabric canopy stretching over six hundred meters as you walk the market's length.
