"This place is incredible. – Do you smell that?"
―Princess Leia to Obi-Wan Kenobi[1]

A marketplace was in Daiyu City on the planet Daiyu. Aurebesh signage of various colors, spelling out "market", were put up on buildings on order to attract potential customers.[1]

History

"Don't smell anything. Don't look at anything. Don't touch anything."
―Obi-Wan Kenobi to Princess Leia[1]

After rescuing a young Princess Leia from kidnappers, Obi-Wan Kenobi lead her through the marketplace, buying a green cape and a pair of gloves for her at Chiu Mo Threads and telling her to pretend that they were a farming family from Tawl. While continuing to walk through the marketplace, Kenobi advised Leia to keep a low profile and told her not to touch anything.

However, Leia quickly became distrustful of Obi-Wan and ran away, fleeing back into the marketplace, diving under a lumbering Gigoran and navigating through an animal auction. She then ran into the path of a masked spicerunner who was hoping to claim the bounty on Kenobi. The spicerunner demanded to know his whereabouts, but Kenobi shot them down and also fought a gray skinned humanoid. He then followed Leia, but she escaped him once again while a group of Inquisitors lead stormtroopers into the marketplace, looking for Kenobi.[1]
