I went to Tokyo Tower, which it’s no exaggeration to call the most famous sightseeing spot in Tokyo. It was daytime and the sky was gloomy, so there wasn’t much to see. So I didn’t bother going up to the Special Observatory.. then again, just going up Tokyo Tower isn’t all that exciting anyway. The view might be better from Sunshine 60 or Roppongi Hills..
Once you go up to the observatory, the shop there sells special souvenirs, and they’re pretty cute. Apparently they’re only sold at the Tokyo Tower observatory, so keep that in mind if you’re planning a visit.. That would never happen back in Korea.. ^_^ but Japan has quite a lot of places like that..
Is this around Shinbashi.. hmm..
Rainbow Bridge is faintly visible in the back.
Probably toward Tokyo Station..
The building in the back should be the Marunouchi Building.
Looks like the Azabu-Juban area
The Shuto Expressway links up every corner of Tokyo.
This is Roppongi Hills.
The one next to it must be Tokyo Midtown, which just opened recently
This is toward Shinjuku..
You can see the Shinjuku skyscrapers in the back.
The floor is made of glass.
Well.. this is nothing special..
It’s a bit pricey.. but if you go up on a clear day, it’s worth doing once. They say the New Tokyo Tower is on its way up too, so the center of sightseeing will probably shift soon..
