Sightseeing

Tokyo Tower, which is cool enough just to look at from the outside and was recognized by my kids from their video games, is a communications and observation tower in Minato, Tokyo, Japan, that was completed in 1958. Standing at 332.9 meters tall, it was once the tallest tower in Japan until the Tokyo Skytree was built in 2012. Inspired by the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tower is a popular tourist destination with two observation decks offering stunning views of the city and serves as a broadcasting antenna support structure for radio and television stations. With its iconic design and vibrant colors, Tokyo Tower is a must-visit landmark in Tokyo's skyline, and if we had more time, we would have gone below to the arcade where you can dress up like real rock 'em sock 'em robots - the kids would have loved it.
