Tsukiji Fish Market
Looking for a Lost Contact?
Just kidding. Go to the Tsukiji fish market early in the morning and you can see the world's largest tuna auction. Or, sleep in a little bit, come later and watch the spoils be divided. If you're not squeamish about fish carnage, this market is better than any aquarium for the variety of sea life you can examine up close. It's a little intimidating at first, since everyone is clearly busy at work, and often with 5 foot blades (as above). But when I was there, everyone was very kind and patient with my staring and photographing.
If you're anywhere near Tokyo, this is an absolute "do not miss".
