Tsukiji Outer Market (Tsukiji Kanno)
©AFLO
The Central Wholesale Market section of Tsukiji Market, famed for its competitive wholesale fish auctions, moved to Toyosu in October 2018. Tsukiji Outer Market, however, is still around and is very much open for business. While its former neighbor mainly supplied professionals, the Outer Market caters to the sushi-loving general public. Come before noon to witness throngs of hungry shoppers looking for the freshest fish and foodstuff. With dozens of shops and restaurants to explore, you’ll find everything you can imagine, from Japanese-style rolled egg omelet and shellfish to professional kitchenware and utensils, though sushi is the main draw for most visitors.
