About Tsukiji Fish Market

One of the largest fish markets in the world is the Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo. This market has a unique method of operation and is a must-visit. The market starts early work very early - around 4:00 a.m. and works till 8:00 a.m. They have a unique way of bidding for prices that is like an auction. The cutting of fresh fish from around the world takes place here and you can buy some delicious fish. The little shops just outside the main market area serve fresh sushi to give you a bite into the daily produce. You can buy special knives for cutting all sorts of Japanese fish and other accessories you'd need when working with fish. There are some shops selling angling gear as well. A treat for first-timers in Japan!
