This article first appeared in The Japan Times in May of this year. It discusses the move of Tsukiji Market to Toyosu which may not happen due to the toxicity of the land. Tsukiji Market is the largest seafood market in the world. My husband, Shinji, is a buyer at the market.
It is said that 50,000 people come to the market daily to buy or sell seafood. 2,000 variety of seafood are sold at over 1,600 stalls. Daily, 2.3 metric tons are sold. Tsukiji is a popular destination for both the Japanese and for foreign tourists to Japan.
