Tsukiji Fish Market at 5am

DIGG IT!     5 Comments Published Tuesday, January 27, 2009 at 12:52 PM .

Typically on the first night I arrive in Japan I wake up super early due to jet lag. This morning I decided to got to the fish auction at the Tsukiji Fish Market where they auction Tuna and fish all morning starting at 4am.



Unfortunately today they were closed but I really want to see the auction so I am going to go again tomorrow morning as I will probably wake up early anyway, I love jetlag. If anyone wants to join I will be leaving at 4:45am from the Grand Pacific La Daiba and plan to stay til 6:15am.

Loving Tokyo!

    You can suggest them a nice Air app to make the auctions with live video and rating for the fish!! :)

    Have fun!

    Did you go? We are going on Friday 1/30/09 I made the mistake last time I was here going when they were closed. What time did you end up going? I heard the auction opens at 5am.

    We have a group going on 1/29. We stayed out too late and deferred to the next day.

    Well maybe we will see you there. We are planning on leaving our place in Gotanda at 4 and getting there by 5 am.

    Well we went, you could tell the tension was high there between the fish mongers and the vendors and the tourists. We got there around 4:45 am, and while the auction "started" at 5 am they didn't really ramp up the auctioning until 5:55 am.
