Tsukiji, the world renowned Fish Market in Japan showcases all manners of seafood. It is located in central Tokyo and is one of the world's largest fish markets, covering 23 hectares and handling over 2000 tons of marine products per day. We visited the site in the early morning and experienced the incredible tuna auction, which takes place daily at 5:20 am.

Special tricycle carts are always moving rapidly down the crowded aisles with crates of fish strapped to the back.
