TOKYO SKYTREE is 634 meters high, and there is ``TOKYO SKYTREE TEMBO DECK'' at 350 meters above the ground, and ``TOKYO SKYTREE Tembo Corridor'' at 450 meters above the ground, allowing you to see every corner of the cityscape of Tokyo.
The four elevators connecting the ground and the observatory deck move up and down at a speed of 600 m/min, transporting 40 people in about 50 seconds. Each of the four elevators has a different interior design inspired by the four seasons, and you can enjoy the effects linked to the movement of the elevators.

The observation deck offers a panoramic view of Tokyo, and on clear days you can even see Mt. Fuji in the distance.
There are also restaurants, cafes, and shops where you can enjoy the beautiful scenery.

Two more elevators extend from the observatory deck, connecting it to the observatory gallery in about 30 seconds at a speed of 240 m/min.
From the Observation Gallery, you can enjoy an even more expansive view, and from the glass-covered Aerial Corridor, you can experience the feeling of walking in the air.

When the weather is unstable, the observatory may close its business hours early or cancel operations altogether.
Although it is unfortunate that depending on the situation, it may not be possible to climb up to the observation deck, the facility management has been highly praised for prioritizing the safety of visitors.

Tokyo Skytree is the world's tallest radio tower and second tallest building, and is visited by many tourists not only from Japan but also from all over the world.

There is a commercial facility called Tokyo Skytree Town surrounding Skytree, which not only sells most of Tokyo's famous souvenirs, but also has many shops and restaurants, making it a popular tourist facility.

The Sky Tree is beautifully lit up at night, making it a popular date spot.
You can change the theme of the illumination and see a variety of views.
It is usually illuminated in blue with a Japanese indigo and white theme, but from time to time new themes are beautifully expressed, and many photography enthusiasts can be seen holding their cameras. .
