Tokyo Night View | Top 5 Popular Observation Decks

Tokyo's night view is one of the top 10 must-see night views in the world, and the correct way to enjoy the stunning night view is hidden in the five most popular high-rise observation decks. This special feature will provide practical information and related tips on these observation decks.

Roppongi Hills

Highlights | Best for date night views; the Tokyo Tower lights up instantly at the moment the sun sets, and the lights change colors at specific times. The indoor observation deck on the 52nd floor is built with 360° panoramic glass walls, and the ceiling height is more than three times that of a regular room, offering an exceptionally wide view. The outdoor observation deck is an open-air viewing area on the top floor of the building, equipped with telescopes for visitors to enjoy the high-altitude view.
Highlights | Tokyo's most iconic landmark; every night, a shining river extends from the base of the tower to the end of the night sky, offering a panoramic view of Roppongi and Odaiba. Tokyo Tower also has two observation decks, with the main deck being ideal for night photography. The top deck now features audio guides in 13 different languages.

Tokyo Skytree

You can freely choose the elevator for each season, and the 350th-floor observation deck offers excellent viewing facilities. Inside the tower, there are many spots for taking commemorative photos. For family trips, daytime visits are more suitable, while couples might prefer to visit at night.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building has two observation decks, one in the south and one in the north. When overlooking the entire city, you can see large parks with scattered lights nearby, brightly lit skyscrapers in the distance, and to the west, the plains of Tokyo and Kanagawa.

World Trade Center Building (Seaside Top)

Highlights | Low ticket prices and fewer crowds; the observation deck of the World Trade Center offers a very wide view, allowing you to see the nearby Tokyo Tower and Roppongi, and in the distance, the Skytree and Odaiba are also clearly visible. Looking down, you can see the bustling metro and the lights of ships in Tokyo Bay, with the entire Tokyo panorama right before your eyes. Additionally, observation seats are set up by the glass windows for the elderly and children to rest while enjoying the view.
