What is TOKTO SKYTREE?



TOKTO SKYTREE, a tourist facility located in the eastern area of Tokyo, is a landmark and a popular tourist attraction in Tokyo. It stands at a height of 634 meters, making it the tallest radio tower in the world.



Visitors to the SkyTree can enjoy the view of Tokyo from two locations: “Tembo Deck” and “Tembo Galleria”.



“Tembo Deck” is an open area with a 360-degree glass wall that allows visitors to see as far as 70 km away. On a clear day, you can sometimes see Mt. Fuji in the distance, and ships sailing in Tokyo Bay.



Another 100 meters above it, 450 meters above the ground, is the “Tembo Galleria”. Here, visitors can enjoy the tube-shaped corridor as if they were taking a walk in the air.


There are two types of tickets available: one for the Tembo Deck only, and the other for both the Tembo Deck and the Tembo Galleria. Also, please note that the price varies depending on weekdays and holidays.
