Tokyo SKYTREE – A tip for an amazing view of all of Tokyo – Part 3

Tokyo SKYTREE is a 634-meter-high transmitter with an observation deck and restaurant, and is currently the tallest free-standing transmitter tower in the world with an observation deck with views in all directions. If you are in Tokyo, I recommend that you do not miss a visit here. The experience is really worth it.

The entire SKYTREE is serviced by a large number of staff, who always told me where to go with a smile. The elevator takes about 10 seconds to reach Floor 350. After exiting the cabin, visitors are immediately presented with a unique view in all directions. Even though SKYTREE is very popular, mostly Japanese, at least when I was there, there is enough space to find your place and just enjoy the view.

For stronger personalities, there is also a glass floor (340th floor) – which was a real test for me, but I managed it!

The view in all directions is of course amazing from both observation decks. Since Tokyo is located in a flat area, you can explore each part of the city gradually, which stretches in all directions to infinity. If your schedule in Tokyo allows it, I recommend choosing a sunny day for your visit, preferably after the rain. During my visit, the visibility was not ideal and I missed the opportunity to see Mount Fuji, which I was very much looking forward to. So maybe next time.
