About
Rýchle fakty: Glowing brilliantly against Tokyo's skyline, the tower lights up with over 176 lamps, offering a mesmerizing night view that's hard to forget. Visitors can ascend to two observation decks, where panoramic cityscapes stretch endlessly, perfect for both daytime sightseeing and romantic evenings.
Zaujímavosti: During winter, thousands of tiny LED lights sparkle on the metal lattice, mimicking the glint of snow under the city lights, turning the tower into a glowing beacon against Tokyo's night sky. Beneath the main observation deck, a quaint aquarium hosts over 50 species of fish, creating a cool underwater retreat amid the urban buzz.
Insider tips
- Arrive right at opening on weekdays to avoid queues and get clearer daytime views.
- Bring a light jacket for the outdoor terrace, it gets windy and cooler than ground level.
- Head to the lower Main Deck terrace for unobstructed skyline photos, and try the Top Deck for elevated night shots if visibility is good.
- If short on time, skip the souvenir shops and restaurants at the base and focus on the observation decks for the views.

4.3Night visit at 9pm, short line and incredible city lights. Combo ticket saved money and made it a great value for the views.
Arrived at 8:15 and beat the crowds. Paid extra for the top deck and the sunset view was worth every yen. Souvenirs are overpriced.
Visited around noon, lines were moderate but moved quickly. Main deck fee felt reasonable, cafe had a long wait and no table.
Rainy afternoon visit with foggy views and a 40 minute queue. Observatory felt overpriced for what you actually see, skip the restaurant.
