Toyosu Market is a wholesale market in Tokyo located in the Koto District. It was built on man-made land in Tokyo Bay and replaces the historic Tsukiji Fish Market, which was previously the capital's famous fish market. Opened October 2018 and is the largest seafood market in the world. The market in turn consists of two separate fish markets, one for auctions and the other for general sale, plus a fruit and vegetable market. There are also restaurants and a variety of options for visitors. Tourists can watch the market from a viewing platform on the second floor and take part in guided auctions and events. However, it is no longer possible, as was previously the case in Tsukiji, for visitors to be directly at the famous tuna events, a platform was built for this, from which one can see into the interior of the market. The modern building complex also offers a roof terrace and a shrine and is easily accessible by bus and train.
In addition to the food (teppanyaki) grilled on a hot iron plate, guests enjoy the spectacular night view of Tokyo Bay, which can be seen from each of the tables. Apart from the breathtaking view, the chefs put on a real show for the guests, who can then enjoy the delicious dishes. In addition to an inexpensive lunch menu, a rich dinner is also offered, so that there is something for every taste.

Take advantage of this viewpoint in order to experience the cityscape that Tokyo has to offer.
