Toyosu
Toyosu (–LF) is a man-made island in Tokyo close to Odaiba. It was created in the 1930s and later enlarged. The famous Tsukiji Fish Market was relocated to Toyosu in October 2018 where it reopened as Toyosu Market.
Toyosu also happens to be the site of the first 7-Eleven convenience store that opened in Japan in 1974. More than 20,000 7-Eleven stores exist in Japan today.
Located by the waterfront, Lalaport Toyosu is one of the largest shopping malls in central Tokyo. Lalaport has many shops carrying popular international brands as well as local favorites. The mall also offers numerous restaurants, a cinema and a promenade by the sea, providing a relaxing atmosphere for visitors.
One popular destination at Lalaport is Kidzania, an indoor theme park where children (aged 3 to 15) can try out play-acting as different professionals like cooks or pilots. Its entrance is interestingly designed like an airport boarding gate, giving kids the impression of entering into a different world upon passing through it. Adults are only allowed to enter if they are accompanying a child.
