Tsukiji Wholesale Market, Tokyo

Map to Tsukiji Wholesale Market and that's me infront of it.

We had sashimi breakfast here.

This is the book which i accidentally left behind after having my sumptous breakfast of sashimi. As i had expected, my book was still there when i retrieve it as it was commonly known that Japanese would not take what that's not theirs.

This is one of the special tricycle cart and they go pretty fast!

This sprawling complex offers a mind-boggling variety of fresh seafood, anything familiar?

TUSKIJI WHOLESALE MARKET, TOKYO

We were here on 6 July 2007 at about 11.00am. Rather too late to witness the hustle and bustle of the market. My curiosity is to see the market and its underwater sea creatures which had acclaimed to have the extraordinary catch. The fish market is huge with series of buildings and parking lots. To my surprise, the market didn’t smell like fish at all.
This place is a must for raw-fish fans, who can breakfast afterwards on a bowl of rice and freshest slices of sashimi at JYen1500, and we had the best sashimi in our life!
