Once an industrial zone, Toyosu has transformed into a sleek, futuristic district by Tokyo Bay. Best known for housing the new fish market that replaced the historic Tsukiji, Toyosu blends cutting-edge architecture, gourmet culture, and waterfront leisure — all just a few train stops from Ginza or Odaiba.
Toyosu Fish Market: Where Tokyo’s Tuna Lives Now
At the heart of Toyosu is the Toyosu Fish Market, the world’s largest wholesale seafood hub. While it caters primarily to professionals, visitors can watch the famous early-morning tuna auctions from an observation deck and explore seafood-focused restaurants on-site. It’s a must-visit for sushi lovers.
Sushi, Fresh and Refined
Toyosu is one of the best places in Tokyo to eat incredibly fresh sushi. Many top chefs source their fish here, and restaurants inside the market complex serve up pristine cuts for breakfast and lunch — from traditional Edo-style sushi to modern omakase meals.
Waterfront Views and Green Spaces
The area is known for its wide open spaces, modern promenades, and scenic views of the city skyline. Toyosu Gururi Park offers a peaceful walking trail along the water, with views of Rainbow Bridge and Tokyo Tower. It’s perfect for evening strolls or picnics.
