Tokyo day 3 / Ginza, Hamarikyu Park & imperial place

We started this third day with a visit of the biggest fish market on the planet, the Tsukiji Fish Market. We got there ~1000, too late, the fish was almost all gone. If you wont to see some action you have to be there before 0600...maybe 2022.


To restore our olfactorius system, we headed to the nearest park, Hamarikyu park in Ginza. Ginza is the first district of Tokyo. The parks in Tokyo are a must see - all of them.
Enjoy some pictures of the park:





After the park I found another promising knife shop on site, it was located in a back alley, with a two person lift in the ninth floor - and it was closed. No knife for you!
Next stop, the imperial place in central Tokyo:


You can't get nearer and there are thousands of Chinese people. Did I mention the shear amount of Chinese people here in Tokyo?! As I remember the last time I didn't see more than a view, but now they are everywhere and I can't stand them!
To end the day and calm a bit down we got some sweet fishes at our local sweet fish dealer.


Two premium cream fishes for me...
