As busy as the streets are, and as looming as the neon-covered buildings can be, you can't ever really get a true feeling for the sheer endlessness of Tokyo until you have looked down upon it from above. To say that the view from this building is completely staggering would be to understate it. Access to the building and observation... more

There is staff restaurant in 32nd floor. The restaurant is quite big, many seats. It's not only for staff, visitor can go there. (not many people know about it..) The price is very cheep and many choice of food. It's self-service. more

Access to the 45th floor observation decks of both towers of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building is free, although they're not both open all the time and you may have to queue at busy times. I went up the north tower, which has a cafe and suitably tacky toy and souvenier shop at the top. It was pretty cloudy when... more

It was worth the trip for me. I stayed in a hotel in a different area of Tokyo, a low-rise building, so I seriously enjoyed the high-rise view of Tokyo.. Wow, Tokyo is a really huge area taking advantage of every square inch of space. The observing area is an entire floor, so you have a lot of space and... more
