Tsukiji Fish Market, Japan
When I think of Dr Seuss’s One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish book, I am convinced he spent a day at Tsukiji Fish Market in Tokyo. Tsukiji is the largest wholesale fish and seafood market in the world, located in the Tsukiji section of Tokyo between the Sumida River and the Ginza shopping district. The market has two sections, the Inner and the Outer markets. The Inner is where the licensed wholesale dealers operate stalls and where auctions are held. The coveted Blue Fin tuna auctions are the biggest. The Outer Market was the section for the general public. The market was a major tourist attraction for both domestic and overseas visitors. It opened in 1935 and closed in 2018, moving two miles away to the new and twice-as-large Toyusu Market.
