Hunchun Seafood Street
珲春海鲜一条街
A popular food street at the hub of Russian king crab imports, where you can pick your seafood and have it cooked on the spot, at prices well below mainland China.
Hunchun is a major port for importing Russian king crab into China. Hunchun Seafood Street, whose name is a pun on 'crab' and 'encounter', runs about 145 m near the European-style street in the city centre, with nearly 30 seafood shops on both sides. Since 2023 they have gradually turned into restaurants that cook your choice of seafood on the spot, making it a must-visit for tourists. King crab is priced per jin (500 g), plus a separate processing fee, and prices vary with the season. Before ordering, ask about the unit price, how the crab is weighed and the processing fee. In the evening, you can also grab grilled skewers nearby for a late-night snack.
