Meiji Shrine is a shrine dedicated to Emperor Meiji and Empress Shoken. When the Tokugawa Shogunate returned power back to the Emperor and the Meiji era began, Japan made great strides in catching up with other developed countries. The education system was established, railways became widespread, and Westernized dining attire became popular. Emperor Meiji, who encouraged these developments, was loved by the people, and after his death, Meiji Shrine was built as a place to commemorate him.
Now, 100 years later, this place has become a magnificent forest that is hard to believe is in Tokyo, and its sacred atmosphere makes it a refreshing place.
Tsukiji was the world's largest fish market until 2018. Although the Inner Market, including the famous Tuna auction, has moved to Toyosu, there are still 400 retail stores here selling not only fresh fish but also vegetables, fruits, sweets, kitchen utensils, etc.
With the help of a knowledgeable guide, you can taste the unique products, communicate with the shopkeepers, and buy special souvenirs.
