Tsukiji Market is best known as one of the world's largest fish markets, handling over 2,000 tons of marine products per day. The sight of the many kinds of fresh fish, shellfish and other seafood and the busy atmosphere of scooters, trucks, sellers and buyers hurrying around.
Heading to the fish market means either rising very early, or no sleep at all. I went for the no sleep option in fear of not being able to wake. I left my house at 430am and road to Shibuya where I boarded the first train to the Market.
I got there just in time to witness the daily Tuna auctions. Every morning before the fish market officially opens they conduct a buyers auction. All the days massive Tuna are lined up in rows and numbered. Each Tuna creates a competitive bidding war and who ever wins the Tuna carts it of to their store to sell to the general public.
