A very warm welcome, friend, to Toyosu Market, the beating heart of Tokyo’s vast culinary world! This is the new, state-of-the-art home for the legendary fish market, a “city within a city” dedicated to the ocean’s bounty. It is a marvel of logistics and freshness, a place where the energy of commerce meets the artistry of food, all set against the beautiful backdrop of Tokyo Bay.

Your journey can begin before the sun rises. The day’s most sacred ritual is the tuna auction, held in the early morning darkness. From the quiet observation gallery, you can watch a true spectacle unfold. It is a symphony of motion and sound as auctioneers, with their unique, melodic calls, move along rows of massive, frozen tuna. The energy is electric, a timeless tradition now housed in this futuristic facility.

But the market is more than just the auction. We invite you to explore the Fisheries Intermediate Wholesale Market building. This is where you will find the soul of the market: the Uogashi Yokocho, a vibrant maze of shops. And, of course, the restaurants! Many of an old legend’s most famous sushi masters have moved here. Joining the morning queue is a rite of passage, and your reward is, quite simply, the freshest sushi you may ever taste.

Toyosu is a different world from its predecessor. It is a vast, enclosed, and immaculate space. But the spirit of the market—the dedication to quality, the pursuit of perfection—remains. We encourage you to walk its long corridors, feel the hum of a city being fed, and find a moment of peace on the grassy rooftop plaza, gazing out at the bay. We are so happy you are here to taste and see the treasures of the sea.
