🗺️ Tsukiji Outer Market

Tsukiji Outer Market is a specialized area that brings together over 400 shops selling food ingredients and dining establishments. After the central wholesale market moved from Tsukiji to Toyosu in October 2018, the Tsukiji Outer Market remains vibrant. It is always bustling with vendors purchasing ingredients, everyday shoppers, and tourists coming to taste famous delicacies, creating a lively atmosphere. The shops in the Tsukiji Outer Market sell a variety of products including seafood, fruits and vegetables, processed foods, dried goods, and kitchen supplies. The dining establishments offer a wide range of options such as sushi, seafood bowls, curry, ramen, and set meals, with many popular shops often having long lines outside their doors. Before the central wholesale market relocated, "Tsukiji Uo-gashi" opened with around 60 seafood and produce wholesalers. Visitors can also enjoy market cuisine in the food street-style "Uo-gashi Shokudo," allowing general customers to easily immerse themselves in the market's atmosphere. Business hours and holidays vary by shop, but many follow the central wholesale market's schedule, closing on Wednesdays, Sundays, and national holidays. Additionally, most shops are primarily focused on business procurement and sales in the morning until 9 AM, so general customers typically visit after 9 AM. The period from 9 AM to 1 PM is particularly lively, making it a recommended time to visit.
