Tokyo Chuou-ku Tsukiji 6-20-37

According to legend, long ago when the Tsukiji area was all ocean, efforts were being made to reclaim the land, but it was extremely difficult. Then, a sacred object shining with light was spotted floating on the ocean, and it was known that it was inhabited by the spirit of Inari Okami, the fox god. This Shinto shrine was built to house that sacred object, and after it was completed the construction work proceeded apace and the land was reclaimed from the sea. Today, it is said the shrine still provides protection from disasters and dangerous waves. The current main shrine building was the last to be constructed in eastern Japan in the pre-war period.

just steps away from the fish market is an island of peace. A nice little shrine. Local feel and is very quiet despite being so close to the market.

Kachidoki Bridge

Travel / Tourism

Tokyo Chuou-ku Tsukiji 6-chome - Kachidoki 1-chome Harumi street

A bridge spanning Tsukiji and Kachidoki in Chuo City, Tokyo on the lower reaches of the Sumida River. The bridge was completed in 1940 and was to serve as the main gate for a world's fair scheduled to be held in Tokyo (which was ultimately suspended due to the war). Kachidoki bridge is a movable bridge able to open up in the middle, and when first built it was the largest of its kind in Asia. As fewer and fewer large boats traveled the Sumida River, however, it became unnecessary to raise the bridge-the last time it was opened was in 1970.

Tokyo Areas

The setting of countless iconic movie scenes and the inspiration for songs, poetry, and literature worldwide, Tokyo barely requires an introduction. It’s hard for the kaleidoscopic neon lights, wacky pop culture, and some of the world’s tallest structures not to instill excitement in any first-time visitor to Tokyo, whether you’re in the very center of the hustle and bustle in Shinjuku or Shibuya or looking in from the quieter suburbs.
