Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market reopens tuna auctions to sightseers

TOKYO, Japan - Sightseers line up to watch a popular tuna auction at Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market on May 10, 2010, as the market reopened the touring section of the auction by limiting the number of visitors to 140 on a first-come-first-served basis. The market shut out sightseers from the tuna auction on April 8 as the excessive numbers of visitors to the auction area were obstructing business transactions.
