Ouvert initialement en 1935, l’historique marché de poisson de Tsukiji a créé un marché extérieur en raison de sa grande popularité. Appelé « Marché extérieur de Tsukiji », ce lieu animé vend une variété d’articles tels que des produits frais, du poisson, des ustensiles ainsi que des aliments prêts à manger. Le marché fut fondé pour répondre au besoin des clients particuliers, qui n’avait initialement pas le droit d’entrer dans la zone car elle était exclusivement réservée aux entreprises. Malgré la fermeture du marché de poisson historique, vous pouvez encore découvrir une culture unique dans ce marché extérieur.
