When the change of Honnoji occurred (June 1582), Ieyasu Tokugawa, who was in Sakai and felt dangerous, tried to return to Okazaki. But I didn't leave it to me because of my poor geography. At that time, the fishermen from Tsukudamura, Settsu Kuni, bought the guide. Later, Ieyasu, who opened the Shogunate in Edo, invited 33 fishermen from Tsukudamura to Edo in order to reward the benefits at that time. It is said that the current Tsukuda Island was later given the sandbar of Ishikawajima and lived there. He guaranteed that the Shogunate would buy the caught fish, and allowed him to sell it at the market if he wanted it. This was the beginning of the fish shore at the base of Nihonbashi, which was relocated after the Great Kanto Earthquake to become Tsukiji Market.

In Tsukuda, there is "Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine", which residents recommended from their hometown, Tsukuda Village. Until recently, old fishing boats were moored in the pool in front of the shrine. There is a "Katsuozuka" like a fishing village in the precincts.

When walking around the town, there is a remnant of an old fishing village, and there are narrow alleys where people cannot pass each other. The Tendaiko Ikuchizo is enshrined in the alley, and it is still deeply worshiped without ever stopping the incense.

In one corner of Tsukuda, you can see a store that manufactures and sells "Tsukudani", a preserved food that was useful as a souvenir to the region during the Edo period.

Until 1964 when Tsukuda-ohashi Bridge was built, there was a ferry boat from the Ginza area, and the monument still remains on both banks of the Sumida River. Until that time, Tsukuda Island was a place of entertainment for literary people and others, and on the riverside there is stone monument of playwright Hideji Hojo. "If it snows, Tsukuda is an old island of Edo."
