The Sky Tree is AMAZING and HUGE. For those you who don't know, the Sky Tree replaces the old Tokyo Tower. The complex opened in late May, but it wasn't completely opened to the public. You had to get into a special lottery to win tickets before they opened it up completely. The women's group I belong to was in the lottery and won tickets, so I signed up to! It officially opens to the public for day tickets on July 11.
Facts:
- tallest tower in the world
- 2nd tallest structure in the world
- outside its 634meters tall
- inside, highest point is 451.2meters
- from highest point, Tokyo looks like legos!
Here are some pictures
Me at 451.2meters, just in case you couldn't see from the pillar
What the city would look like at night from this point
looking down from 345meters up....
hoping to get back to Skytree so that Mike can see if before we leave!
