The Liberdade neighborhood is home to the largest Japanese population outside Japan. Although today most Japanese-Brazilians speak only Portuguese, some of them are still fluent in Japanese. Some people of Chinese and Korean descent who live in the area are still able to speak their ancestral languages.[6]
Crafts and gastronomy
The street market was created to emphasize all kind of handicraft works and artisanal wares from the Asian immigrants.
In recent years artisans of other nationalities have begun selling their crafts at the market. These newcomers to the Street Fair are from Northeastern Brazil, India, and Taiwan. They sell candles, toiletries, leather products, sculptures and so on.
Booths selling traditional Asian foods like yakisoba and gyoza are common.[7]
