The Tsukiji Outer Market With over 400 gourmet speciality shops

Tsukiji is most famous for the gourmet town called the Tsukiji Market.

It has played the role of Japan’s number one kitchen for many years, but in 2018 the market moved to Toyosu. The more than 400 gourmet speciality shops in the Tsukiji outer market remained, and you can still enjoy sushi and voluminous seafood rice bowls with fresh ingredients right from the market at very reasonable prices.

It may be surprising to some to see various genres of foods such as Italian, Oyako-Don (chicken rice bowls), and ramen. Trying these is another way to enjoy the Tsukiji Outer Market.

Recently, “eating while walking” is a popular activity in the Tsukiji Outer Market. Some shops have long lines. The market is a short 10 minute walk from TSUKI. Because it is a market, most shops open early in the morning, so why not go for breakfast after a morning walk?

Namiyoke shrine The shrine of the God Namiyoke-Inari that protects against misfortune and helps people to overcome turmoil.

After the great fire of the Edo period, Edo Bay remained in existence where the fish market is today.

Tsukiji land reclamation work was carried out, but the construction was difficult due to the rough waves. One evening, during the reclamation work, a shining Go-Shintai (floating shrine) was found floating on the surface of the sea. In 1659, a shrine was built at the place where the current shrine is located. After the shrine was built, the rough waves settled down and the land reclamation work proceeded smoothly. This is the story of where the name of the shrine came from and it attracts people to worship the god Namiyoke-Inari.

As the God which protects against misfortunes and helps human to get over periods of turmoil, Namiyoke-Inari is highly worshipped by people who pray for warding off bad luck, for divine protection from calamity, good business, safety during constructions, and others.
