About Tokyo Skytree
Since Tokyo Tower become surrounded by massive buildings, it couldn’t complete digital terrestrial television broadcasting coverage, so a new tower for television broadcasting had to be built. Tokyo Skytree has two observation decks, at 350 and 450 meters in height. The lower deck is called Tembo Deck and it spans three levels giving a magnificent view of Tokyo panorama to the visitors. On the top floor, you can enjoy the 360-degree panoramic views of the city. On the middle floor enjoy French-Japanese cuisine in the Musashi Sky Restaurant, or buy gifts in the souvenir shop. The lowest floor has cafes and floors made of glass so you can see the tower beneath you. The higher deck is known as Tembo Galleria. There you can enjoy a look from 451.2 meters, the highest point of the observation decks.
