Tokyo Bay essentials

Tokyo Bay serves as a hub for modern architecture, large-scale entertainment, and maritime commerce. The shoreline features the Rainbow Bridge and the structural expressionist Fuji Television building in Odaiba. Cultural sites include Hamarikyu Gardens, a metropolitan park with tidal ponds, and the Miraikan science museum. The area also hosts the Toyosu Market, the world’s largest wholesale fish market, and Tokyo Disney Resort. Further south, the Yokohama Landmark Tower offers panoramic views from one of Japan's tallest buildings.
