    Tsukiji Fish Market

    This area was originally established for professional chefs who came to purchase ingredients when the market relocated — it is a gathering place of major wholesale vendors from the former inner Tsukiji Market. Here, hundreds of varieties of fresh fish and vegetables are available, allowing visitors to experience what it feels like to be a professional chef themselves as they explore the vast selection of seafood. At our company’s own shop within the market, you can actually hold one of Tsukiji’s largest crabs and take photos with it. Lifting a live, giant king crab is a rare and powerful experience — something only a leading crab wholesaler, with the largest crab sales volume in both Toyosu and Tsukiji Markets, can offer.

    Namiyoke Inari Shrine

    This is a very important shrine for us — the guardian deity of the Tsukiji Market, indispensable to its history and spirit. We will visit the shrine to pray for our guests’ good fortune, while sharing the story of its deep connection to the market and the vital role it has played throughout Tsukiji’s history. You can also purchase unique and charming omamori (good luck charms) here — a highly recommended keepsake from your visit.
