About this place

Live Street Stream | Former Tsukiji Market Grounds & Outer Market, Chuo, Tokyo. Preserving the beating heart of Tokyo's historic culinary heritage, this camera looks over the legendary Tsukiji waterfront quarter along the Sumida River. While wholesale fish auctions relocated to Toyosu, the surrounding Tsukiji Outer Market (Tsukiji Jogai Shichiba) continues to thrive with vibrant crowds exploring over 400 compact seafood stalls, sushi counters, and specialized wholesale food purveyors dating back over eight decades.

Tsukiji remains an indispensable foodie wonderland. Queue up at century-old tamagoyaki master Yamacho (山長) or Marutake to savor piping-hot, fluffy dashi-rolled sweet omelet skewers made before your eyes. Walk down the narrow alleys to feast on overflowing raw tuna and sea urchin bowls at Tsukiji Donburi Senmon-ten or enjoy pristine nigiri sushi at historic Sushizanmai Main Branch. For a savory snack, grab grilled butter-soy scallops and giant wagyu beef skewers seared with blowtorches right along the street front.
