Augurated in 2012, Tokyo Skytree is the tallest communications tower in Japan and its 634 meters high results in one of the best viewpoints in Tokyo

History

Originally designed to reach 610 meters, finally its height was modified to 634 meters because this number has an attractive sound in Japanese (Musashi). In this way the tower became a familiar and beloved element that recalls the province of Musashi, former name of the great region that included part of Tokyo, Saitama and Kanagawa.

In 2011 the tower was recognized as the highest in the world and became part of the Guinness Book of Records.

The tower has a white color with a delicate bluish tone that aims to harmonize with the surroundings in which the traditional Japanese beauty and modern designs merge.

Viewpoints

The tower has two different viewpoints located at different heights. It is possible to buy a combined ticket for both, or to visit only the part in which you are interested.

The best viewpoint of the tower is 450 meters high and allows visitors to enjoy the breathtaking panoramic views of more than 70 kilometers around.
