Tokyo Tower was born in 1958.
When it was built, Tokyo Tower proudly stood out as the tallest steel tower in the world. At a height of 33 meters, it was taller than the Eiffel Tower in Paris.
It is located in Minato Ward in the center of Tokyo. Take in sweeping views of the city from the observation deck.
Currently under renovation, it is always changing.
The interior of the tower is divided into 2 sections: the Top Deck with an observation floor at a height of 250 meters and the Main Deck with another one at 150 meters.

  1. The Top Deck: At 250 meters above ground, get a bird’s-eye view of Tokyo from the Top Deck. It seems almost as if you could reach out and touch it!.
  2. The Main Deck: From a height of 150 meters, the streets of Tokyo below feel like a 3-D view.
  3. Foot Town: This is located at the base of Tokyo Tower. Buy souvenirs and enjoy food and drink here.

    Tokyo Tower is definitely an iconic landmark you can’t miss! Its red-and-white structure is very eye-catching and is one of the most memorable images of Tokyo for many people. You can see it standing tall amid the city from far away. It’s so iconic that you can’t help wanting to get a closer look. Tokyo Tower often appears in Japanese movies, TV dramas, and anime, so actually visiting it in person really gives you the moving feeling of finally seeing it with your own eyes. Looking up from the base, you can better appreciate how tall and magnificent it is. It looks distinctive in photos from any angle and is a spot well worth remembering during a trip to Tokyo!

    There are also quite a few places to visit and shop inside Tokyo Tower, especially the souvenir shops, which sell all kinds of unique Tokyo Tower merchandise. There is a wide variety, from small, cute charms and miniature models to stationery, everyday items, and gifts. It’s easy to be drawn in by all the cute products and end up wanting to take a few home as keepsakes. Rather than simply taking photos outside, you can also find plenty of surprises by going inside and looking around. If you like collecting souvenirs from trips to Japan, this is a great place to set aside some time to browse slowly and find something special to remember your Tokyo trip by.

    Tokyo Tower also has content related to ONE PIECE, giving fans of the anime one more reason to visit! ONE PIECE is a classic series that many people have grown up with, and seeing familiar characters and related merchandise always feels especially nostalgic and makes you want to stop and take a closer look. This place offers not only the appeal of Tokyo Tower itself but also anime elements, making the whole visit more interesting. Even if you’re not a devoted ONE PIECE fan, you can still experience the distinctive qualities of Japanese anime culture. On this visit to Tokyo Tower, you can admire the landmark, take photos, browse the souvenir shops, and enjoy shopping. If you have enough time, I also highly recommend combining it with nearby attractions to make your Tokyo trip even more fulfilling!

    Tokyo Tower's red-and-white exterior is very distinctive, and it's even more romantic when illuminated at night.
    Inside, there is a beautiful light projection in the shape of the tower. This is a must-visit when traveling to Tokyo!

    Tokyo is an incredibly vibrant city. I've visited more times than I can count, and while organizing my photos, I came across its iconic landmark—Tokyo Tower 🗼 (東京タワー).
    No matter how many new attractions I visit, Tokyo Tower remains the starting point of the city's most romantic stories 🗼. More than its grandeur during the day, I prefer the warmth of Tokyo Tower as night falls.
    For someone who has visited Tokyo countless times, Tokyo Tower 🗼 has long since become more than just a tourist attraction. It offers emotional significance and a sense of connection.
    No matter how many new landmarks appear in Tokyo, its classic silhouette will always be irreplaceable.
    Looking through the photos, the feelings and stories from that time come vividly back to life once again ✨

    Tokyo Tower is like an orange-red bookmark tucked between Tokyo’s high-rises. During the day, it looks classic and striking; when it lights up at night, it takes on a touch of romance. Only when you stand directly beneath it do you realize that Tokyo Tower is far more impressive in person than in photos. This visit felt like more than just checking off a photo spot—it was like meeting one of Tokyo’s classic landmarks.

    When visiting Tokyo, you have to find a good angle to see Tokyo Tower. Its red-and-white structure rises above the bustling city. Even as Tokyo gains more and more landmarks, Tokyo Tower still has an irreplaceable presence. Up close, it is even more impressive than I imagined, and the surrounding streets add a touch of Tokyo's distinctive urban character. Whether during the day or at night, you can enjoy it from different angles and capture a different beautiful view each time.
