Hiroo, Tokyo is a quiet neighborhood with good old shops and restaurants. 

Nice breeze goes through the streets. 

I visited a fair in the main shopping street at Hiroo, called Hiroo TUNA FAIR. 

It started from 1 o'clock in the afternoon but the street was crowded with lots of people already when I got there around noon.

The entire shopping street was closed down and many foods and drinks selling booths were lined up.

Here is the main program of this Fair and name of the fair comes from. 
Tuna filleting event!
It was surrounded by lots of people holding cameras. 
A whole tuna was way bigger than I thought.



Fresh sushi is always the best! 

Besides tuna filleting and tasting, more events were going on.
Around street live performance by Latin American musician was with the greatest atmosphere of the day.

Even a railway was set up for mini SL train for kids and they were thrilled to ride on it.

People eat and drink under the sun with a lot of laughter.
This is a great local event that will be held every year.
I want to go back here next year as well.
