Toyosu Market (豊洲市場, Toyosu Shijō) opened in October 2018 on the man-made island of Toyosu in the Bay of Tokyo. It took over the wholesale business from the aging Tsukiji Market and provides tourists with an opportunity to observe the market action and to dine at restaurants across its large, modern premises.
The huge wholesale market consists of three main buildings: two buildings for seafood and one for fruits and vegetables. All buildings are connected with each other and Shijo-mae Station via walkways, and tourists can enter them along dedicated routes and view the action from observation windows that look onto the auction and wholesale halls for seafood and produce.
Fish Wholesale Market Building
This is the building where the tuna auctions take place between around 5:30 and 6:30 in the mornings. It consists of two main halls: the hall for tuna auctions and the hall where seafood other than tuna is auctioned. For tourists, the building complex houses a small restaurant area and many windows and an observation deck to view the auctions:
Fish Intermediate Wholesale Market Building
This is the building where the many wholesale businesses have their shops and sell seafood to licensed buyers. The wholesale market is off-limit to regular visitors, however the building offers tourists several attractions on its upper floors:
Fruit and Vegetable Market Building
This building combines the auction hall and the wholesale market for fresh fruits and vegetables. Visitors are able to observe the action from windows on the upper floor. A small cluster of restaurants is, furthermore, located, near the entrance of the building:
A facility for additional shopping and dining, targeting visitors and tourists, opened in February 2024 just next to the market. Known as Senkyaku Banrai, the nicely designed facility also contains a public bath and spa, which offers overnight options.
Getting there and around
Toyosu Market surrounds Shijo-mae Station on the Yurikamome. The Yurikamome is an automated, elevated train with rubber tires which connects Shimbashi Station on the JR Yamanote Line via Odaiba with Toyosu Station. The waterfront area of Tokyo is also one of the city's few areas where access by bus can be worth considering.
Note that two hotels, the Hotel JAL City Tokyo Toyosu and the La Vista Tokyo Bay, are located just a few steps from the market, allowing for convenient early-morning visits.
By train from Tokyo Station
Take the JR Yamanote Line one station from Tokyo Station to Yurakucho (1 minute, 150 yen). From Yurakucho, take the Yurakucho Subway Line to Toyosu (8 minutes, 180 yen). Finally, take the Yurikamome to Shijo-mae Station in the center of Toyosu Market (4 minutes, 190 yen). The first connection in the morning arrives at the market around 5:20.
By bus from Shimbashi Station
"Tokyo BRT" (bus rapid transit) operates roughly three buses per hour between Shimbashi Station on the Yamanote Line and Toyosu Market (10 minutes, 220 yen one way); however, the first bus does not depart until after 6am. Alternatively, take bus line 市01, which operates between Shimbashi and the market every 10-15 minutes from 5am to 9am and less frequently afterwards. These buses take about 25 minutes for the journey, cost 210 yen one way, and do not run on Sundays and national holidays.
By bus from Tokyo Station
Toei bus line 都05-2 runs every 10-20 minutes from the Marunouchi side of Tokyo Station to Tokyo Big Sight, stopping along the way at Shin-Toyosu Station near Toyosu Market (25 minutes, 210 yen one way); however, buses do not operate before 7am.
