Tokyo Tower
Modeled after the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tower is both a city landmark and a wonderful platform from which to see the city. At 333 meters Tokyo Tower is the world's tallest self-supporting iron tower, a full 13 meters taller than the tower it was modeled after.
There are two decks that offer visitors a chance to view Tokyo from 150 meters and 250 meters. A variety of attractions are also featured at ground level (also known as "foot town").
You'll definitely want to make a point to visit Tokyo Tower on your next trip.
