While the views from Tokyo Skytree and Tokyo Tower are iconic–especially with Skytree being one of the world’s tallest towers at 634 meters–Mori Tower (centerpiece of Roppongi Hills) offers a unique alternate perspective.
Located about 250 meters above sea level, the observation deck on the 52nd floor of Mori Tower called Tokyo City View offers a sight to behold. From here, you get the double view of both Skytree and Tokyo Tower as well as Mt. Fuji on clear days.
Although standing at the top of Skytree or Tokyo Tower is brilliant, being at Mori Tower provides the wonderful opportunity to observe how each of their starkly different yet equally iconic architecture styles fit into the broader cityscape.
Taking a step back and seeing things from a different point of view can be incredibly inspiring and even world-changing at times–a great life lesson too!
