Tokyo Tower, the famous landmark as seen from World Trade Center Tokyo. I highly recommend the observation deck up there: Beautiful views and the ever-present ceding machines.

The Tokyo Tower is one of Japan's most iconic landmarks and is located in the heart of Tokyo. Standing at 333 meters tall, it was modeled after the Eiffel Tower in Paris and was completed in 1958. The tower primarily serves as a broadcasting tower, but it is also a popular tourist attraction with two observation decks offering stunning views of the city. On clear days, visitors can even catch a glimpse of the distant Mount Fuji. The Tokyo Tower is especially spectacular at night when it is illuminated in bright lights.

Aside from its function as a broadcasting tower, the Tokyo Tower also houses a small shopping complex, a wax museum, and an aquarium. It symbolizes Japan’s resurgence after World War II and represents modernity and progress. Over the decades, Tokyo Tower has become a cultural symbol, cherished by both locals and tourists alike.
