Japan Trip - Tsukiji Fish Market

Our first full day in Japan was spent in the Tokyo area. I'd counted on jet lag to get us up early, and we headed for Tsukiji fish market.

Above is a video of the street we had to cross to get from the side with the flea market and restaurants, to the fish market proper. And below are two photos of what the market looks like. We were there after the auction, when things were wrapping up.

Many of the seafood items were sold live. Including what looked like baby eels.
