Tsukiji Outer Market is Japan’s “Food Town,” where the people can encounter all kinds of traditional Japanese foods. A mixture of wholesale and retail shops, along with numerous restaurants, line the streets.
Originally Tsukiji Market catered primarily to professionals.
That is why items sold there were generally too large for a small family to buy.
However, some of the wholesale shops in the market have started retailing high-end merchandise to retail customers and visitors. For example, ready-to-eat sushi meals are now sold in smaller sizes. Even a bite-sized egg roll can be had for those who just want to try it.

Ginza’s backstreets are adventures in boutique shopping and tiny yet exquisite bistros. Rather than resting on its reputation, however, Ginza constantly evolves with the times, providing cultured modernity, energy and old-Tokyo charm.
