Beste tid å besøke
Late afternoon into early evening captures golden hour and the city lighting up, offering the best contrast for photos; clear winter nights provide the farthest visibility. Weekdays after work hours are calmer than weekend afternoons.
Budsjettips
Expect adult observation tickets around ¥1,500 with reductions for children and seniors; special city pass inclusions vary, so check the pass details before buying. Free access sometimes happens during municipal events or promotional days, so consult the official schedule to save money.

Om
Raske fakta: Twin glass-and-steel towers rise above the business district, joined at the top by a circular rooftop observatory offering wide urban panoramas. An indoor atrium features a striking glass-enclosed escalator that flies visitors through a canyon of shops and stairways, creating memorable photo moments.
Høydepunkter: An open-air circular deck sits 173 meters above ground, where clear nights reveal city lights stretching to the bay and Mount Rokko on the horizon. A glass-enclosed escalator climbs through a deep atrium, and couples often leave small tokens near the stairways, adding a human touch to the stark modern architecture.
Insidertips
- Wear a light jacket on the rooftop, it can be much windier than street level.
- Arrive 30–60 minutes before sunset to secure an unobstructed spot for photos and to watch day turn into night.
- Skip the crowded souvenir stalls and linger on the outdoor ring for the best uninterrupted panoramas.
- Ride the glass-enclosed escalator early for dramatic interior photos without heavy crowds.
