Recommended spot with a superb view, "Tokyo Metropolitan Government Observatory"


Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building Observation Room where you can easily see the night view at nightfall



The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building, one of the skyscrapers at the west exit of Shinjuku, has a spectacular observation room.

It is exceptionally high as an observation room that you can climb for free, with 45 floors above ground and 202 meters in height.

Compared to other observatories near Tokyo, the large observatory of Tokyo Tower, which is 150 meters high and 820 yen for adults, the sky deck of Roppongi Hills is 238 meters and 500 yen, and the observatory of Sunshine 60 is 226 meters and 1200 yen for adults. Even if it is exceptionally 0 yen.

It's a spot you definitely want to climb, such as at dusk or on a sunny day with clear air.

The view to the west from the observation room is exceptional, and you can see the Kanto plain from your feet, and beyond that you can see the mountains of Chichibu, Okutama, Tanzawa, and if the air is clear, you can see the view of Mt. Fuji.


I was wondering if I could get a panoramic view of Mt. Fuji after a typhoon, but a part of it was hidden by clouds. September 18

There are two observation rooms, one in the south and the other in the north. The room opens from 9:30 in the morning to 23:00 in the evening, during which you can fully enjoy the view from the observation room.

The North Observatory is usually open until late at night.

The best way to see it is at dusk on a sunny day, when the evening view changes from moment to night.

During that time, it is said that you can see the spectacular evening view while you are in the city, and the number of tourists will increase at once.

Most of them are foreign tourists.

The manager who has been in Japan for a while feels a little heavy because he has to stay in Japan for a while, but when I saw this scenery, the sunset over the horizon of the land of Africa overlapped in my heart.

Naturally, the sun we are looking at is the same.

At dusk, a halo was shining on the streets from between the clouds and the mountains, and a fantastic sight was seen.

The tall building in the foreground in the photo above is probably the Koganei Tower, which is 95 meters high.

The mountains that can be seen over there are like the mountains from Musashi Gokaichi to the mountains along Akigawa in the foreground, and the mountains behind it to Otsuki.

The curtain of light gradually changed its shape and approached the observation room, and the sun appeared through the gap between the clouds and the mountain for a moment, and soon disappeared beyond the mountain.

As the sun goes down, the scenery changes to a night view every moment.

The night view of this time zone when red still remains in the sky after sunset is the most beautiful.

Many times as many customers gathered near the observation window during the time when the manager was shooting the sunset.

It seems to be a great tourist spot for tourists because you can see the beautiful night view for free.

The Tokyo Metropolitan Government Building does not look so tall when viewed from below, but it is said to be 243 meters higher than the 238 meters of the Roppongi Hills Mori Building.

The observation room is open until 23:00, so it might be a good idea to stop by after work on a sunny night with stars.



Until the end Thank you for reading.
