Tokyo Tower Tsukiji Outer Market
In this video we head first for a brief visit to the Tokyo Tower (the second tallest structure in Japan (after the Tokyo Skytree) at 332. 9 metres. Located next to Shiba Park. We walked there, but it is about 5 min walk from Kamiyacho Station on the Hibiya Line, and both Onarimon and Shibakoen Stations on the Toei Mita Line as well as Akabanebashi Station on the Toei Oedo Line.

Nearest stations are Tsukijishijo Station on the Toei Oedo Line or Tsukiji Station on the Hibiya Line.

The outer market remains and is a very busy place full of fish merchant
