I made best effort to wake up early in the morning and went to watch a tuna auction at Toyosu fish market. Since I live in the western part of Tokyo, I need to get up at 3:30 in the morning to arrive Toyosu station at 5:30.

When I arrived at the market, the auction had just started. We can’t enter the observation deck on the 2nd floor without a reservation in advance, so I watched from the 3rd floor deck, from which we can see freely.

There were many foreign tourists with guides on the 3rd floor deck. Getting up early in the morning is a little tough, but the guide here looks also interesting.

Please watch the video to see how the auction looks like.
