Near Rainbow Bridge
Odaiba 1.3 km
A large artificial island in Tokyo Bay, first built for defensive gun batteries in the 1850s and redeveloped in the 1990s for shopping and leisure. Its man-made beach is one of the few places on the bay where the waterfront is open, with views back to the Rainbow Bridge.
Toyosu Market 2.0 km
Tokyo's wholesale market for fish and produce, built on reclaimed land in Tokyo Bay and opened in 2018 to replace Tsukiji. From a viewing deck above the floor you can watch the tuna auctions, then eat seafood from the morning's catch in its restaurants.
Hama-rikyū Gardens 2.6 km
A landscaped garden at the mouth of the Sumida River, on the site of a 17th century villa of the ruling Tokugawa family. Its pond is fed with seawater from Tokyo Bay, so it rises and falls with the tide, and a teahouse sits out on the water.
