TOKYO SKYTREE / 東京スカイツリー

Rising to 634 metres, Tokyo Skytree is Japan’s tallest tower and a striking landmark in Tokyo’s skyline.
From its high-speed elevators, visitors reach the 350-metre Tembo Deck and the 450-metre Tembo Galleria, both offering sweeping 360-degree views across the city.
On clear days, Mount Fuji is visible in the distance.
At its base, the Tokyo Solamachi complex offers over 300 shops and dining options, making a visit a half-day experience of scenery, shopping, and food.
Its cutting-edge architecture and visitor-friendly design make it perfect for travelers of all ages, including families.
