Dear visitor, if you know the answer to this question, please post it. Thank you! Tsukiji with children? 2009/6/30 Tokyo 23-ku Planning to visit Tsukiji fish market with our 6 year old but I've read in several places that it's not a good idea to bring small children. Anyone done this or have any advice? by Mayaman (guest)   Don't take a kid there 2009/6/30 I would not take a six year old child into Tsukiji if you are planning on walking through the fish market area. However, if you are just going to eat sushi, then it's okay. It's too busy and hectic in that area, remember that these people are professionals and doing business, don't take a child into their work area-it's not a tourist destination. by nihonlover (guest) rate this post as useful It's dangerous 2009/6/30 The market area has mini-trucks flying all over carrying goods. It's even dangerous for adults if they're not careful. Don't take a 6-year old back into the fish market area. by aguma (guest) rate this post as useful no kids 2009/6/30 Tsukiji fish area is not for children: its narrow, wet and slippery, and has lots of fast moving vehicles. The outer produce market may be OK, and that's where the restaurants are by fmj rate this post as useful what about 10-month old infant? 2009/6/30 we will be caring the baby all the time. is it OK to bring my baby along to visit the market? plan to see the auction too... by c0met rate this post as useful ... 2009/7/1 Infants and young children should not be brought into the wholesale area of Tsukiji market. by Uji rate this post as useful . 2009/7/1 Just visit the outer market and you'll be fine. by Tokyonet (guest) rate this post as useful
