The Sakura season has come! Many people come to Tokyo in the spring.

I considered it as a joke at that time, but when I went to Tukiji for the first time, I was really surprised. The market was filled with the excitement of many people and food. The energy of the market impressed me and it is situated in exactly the center of Tokyo. Since then, I have been a big fan of Tukiji.
