Guide to Tokyo Disneyland
Michael KaplanFor almost thirty years, Tokyo Disneyland has entertained millions of guests throughout its 115 acres of attractions, shopping areas and restaurants.
Tokyo Disneyland is a theme park based on the films produced by Walt Disney. It was the first Disney theme park to open outside the United States in 1983. It quickly became so popular that in 2018 it became the third most popular theme park with around 17.9 million visitors. Although this means that it can get a bit crowded quickly, large open areas have been specially designed to cater to enthusiastic crowds.
Modeled on Disneyland in California and the Magic Kingdom in Florida, Tokyo Disneyland consists of seven themed countries and also offers seasonal decorations and parades. The areas consist of the World Bazaar, Adventure Land, Insect Land, Fantasy Land, Toontown and Future Land.

Toyosu Market is a wholesale market in Tokyo located in the Koto District. It was built on man-made land in Tokyo Bay and replaces the historic Tsukiji Fish Market, which was previously the capital's famous fish market. Opened October 2018 and is the largest seafood market in the world. The market in turn consists of two separate fish markets, one for auctions and the other for general sale, plus a fruit and vegetable market. There are also restaurants and a variety of options for visitors. Tourists can watch the market from a viewing platform on the second floor and take part in guided auctions and events. However, it is no longer possible, as was previously the case in Tsukiji, for visitors to be directly at the famous tuna events, a platform was built for this, from which one can see into the interior of the market. The modern building complex also offers a roof terrace and a shrine and is easily accessible by bus and train.
