TOKYO SKY-Tree

There were many tourists and there was a long line of people waiting for a turn to go up to the observation deck by elevator in Tokyo SKY-TREE station on TOBU Railroad under the tower. The tower was built only half a year ago though. (The tower was completed in May 2012. Then I visited in November the same year. There is an underground station; the TOBU Railroad which is under the entrance of the tower.) The height of the tower is 634 meters, so we can see it all over, by looking from a little bit far. I discovered a small park near ASAKUSA, and I was able to see the whole tower. Fortunately, there was not a crowd of people. It is not flashy as the red TOKYO Tower, and there is no advertisement board. I was satisfied to see the beautiful view of the tower. And some day, I would like to go up to the observation deck though.
