Tsukiji Fish Market

Tsukiji Foreign Market (築地場外市場, Tsukiji Jōgai Shijō) is a district adjacent to the site of the former Atacadist Market of Tsukiji. It consists of a few blocks of wholesale and retail stores, as well as crowded restaurants in narrow streets. Here you can find fresh and processed seafood and foodstuffs, such as knives. A visit to Tsukiji’s overseas market is best combined with a fresh sushi breakfast or lunch at one of the local restaurants, which typically open from 5am to around noon or early afternoon. As most of the fish served and sold at the Tsukiji Outer Market is delivered directly at the Toyosu Market, it is one of the best places in Tokyo to taste fresh seafood.
