Whenever I visit Toyosu Market, I make it a point to stop by the rooftop garden of the Fish Intermediate Wholesale Market building after breakfast. It’s especially enjoyable on a sunny day. Though I usually only spend 5 to 10 minutes there, the stunning view makes it worth visiting every time!
The rooftop garden is located on the top of the Fish Intermediate Wholesale Market building. I previously wrote about how to navigate the restaurant area inside this building, but if you’re heading to the rooftop, don’t walk straight into the market itself.
Look for an elevator on the left side as you approach the building. Take the elevator to the 5th floor or use the staircase located nearby.
You’ll also see a sign that says “Roof Garden”, making it easy to find your way.
The rooftop garden offers an open-air space with beautiful views of Tokyo. It’s a fantastic spot, especially on clear days, though there are no roofs, benches, or chairs, so plan accordingly.
One of the highlights is the view of Tokyo Tower, which can be seen clearly from here.
While the view from Kachidoki Bridge is now obscured, Toyosu’s rooftop garden has become an excellent alternative to enjoy the city skyline.
You can also see Harumi, Daiba, and various bridges, including Tsukiji and Harumi Bridges, from the rooftop. It’s fascinating to observe the ongoing construction projects in the area as well.
And Housui (The warehouse of Wholesales)
Many buildings are under construction.
While enjoying the view, keep in mind that eating on the rooftop is not allowed (drinks are permitted). Staying overnight is also prohibited. However, you are welcome to relax, lie down for a bit, and soak in the scenery.
If you want to explore further, there’s an elevator that takes you down to Toyosu Gururi Park. It’s another great spot for a stroll, but note that the park has limited entrances, so plan your route carefully.
