Tsukiji Market  is a major tourist attraction for both domestic and overseas visitors in Tokyo. Located in Tsukiji in central Tokyo between the Sumida River and the upmarket Ginza shopping district,  the area contains retail markets, restaurants, and associated restaurant supply stores. 

Before 2018, it was the largest wholesale fish and seafood market in the world. 

Every day between 5 and 6:15 am tonnes of freshly caught (and frozen) tuna is sold. 

It's one of the most expensive fish in the world.

The history of the market begins in the 16th Century, when Tokugawa Ieyasu, the first shogun of the  Tokugawa shogunate made Edo Japan's capital.

Tokugawa Ieyasu brought fishermen from Osaka to provide fish to the Edo castle. These fishermen began to sell what was left over around the Nihonbashi bridge, which gave rise to the original Uogashi market. 

As the population grew and demand grew with it, the little stalls of Uogashi were transformed into a full-blown market. As time went on different markets sprung up, but they all came to the same end: the Great Kanto Earthquake destroyed more than 20 of the markets.

This was when the Tsukiji market was meant to be Tokyo's central market. Sadly, it's now permanently closed, however.

1) What year before it was the largest wholesale fish and seafood market in the world?

2) What is the market called?

3) What is the most expensive fish in the market?

 I learned that tuna is one of the most expensive fish in the world and the tsujiki market is one of the biggest markets in the whole world.

The largest market in the world

Liepa Motuzaite 6a

When talking about flea markets, we can't fail to mention the Paris "Marche aux Puces", whose name literally means "flea market". It is also better known as Saint Ouen to visitors to the city.

 This market is a big blue market, where about 11 million people visit every year. 

The market originated in the 19th century, when Parisians were forbidden to sell their old belongings within the city limits, so they moved to a square further from the city.         

   In 1885, this place of disorderly trade was recognized by the authorities and named Saint-Ouen market place. The old traditions were not forgotten, so the market place did not even try to get rid of the flea market label. Here, people continued to trade in various items taken out of their closets

Today, you won't find real flea markets in Paris, rather you'll find the clothes of your dreams, a rare antique. However, the name of the flea market, which was born in this market, spread all over the world and is used to this day. The market is open on Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays
