What to see in Tokyo/East

35.709|139.825|height=800|width=500}} Template:Mapshape - ,QQ2624,Q14056,QQ2628,Q15175 {{Mapshapes|QQ82894 {{Mapshapes|QQQ7782

A pamphlet showing the visitors' course outlines the three buildings. The Wholesale Market Building is where fish are auctioned to intermediate brokers. Many of those are located in the Intermediate Wholesale Building, where they peddle to resellers and restaurants (but not the general public). In the Fruits and Vegetables Building, a similar tiered structure sells produce, Meat, and flowers.

Fish auctions start at 5AM and run roughly 1 hour, sometimes less; you should arrive early to get a good view. Other auctions follow until around 8AM. Most of the market activity is done by 11AM, after which it becomes a bit of a ghost town until the next morning. Visitors are separated from the market in upstairs viewing galleries, and it's still impressive even though you can't hear or smell anything through the glass. For the tuna auction, 120 people per day can observe from a bottom-floor observation deck, from which you can hear the auctioneers' chant. Tickets are granted by lottery; you must apply online or by phone in the first half of the month that precedes your desired visit (which means between 3-7 weeks in advance).

On the roof, a minimalist grass deck offers good views of Tokyo Bay. While you can't enter the lower markets and there are many dozens of shops and eateries where you can sample some sushi or purchase a persimmon; however, if you want to get face to face with a fish, visit the many shops in Tokyo/Chuo#See|Tsukiji's outer market instead.
