World's largest fish market faces uncertain future

The impending relocation of Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market, the largest in the world, has hit a roadblock owing to contamination at the new site following a series of political errors that could take a toll on tourism and the traders.

Thousands of foreign tourists and locals flock daily to the rundown alleys of the market filled with fish vendors and restaurants displaying over 450 native species of fish, shellfish, mollusks and other fresh and processed produce.
